(1) The Calendar of Events (CoE) has been developed by the IMO Secretariat in compliance with the decisions by IMO Members requesting greater visibility of events held in support of World Maritime Day and Day of the Seafarer. Its aim is to allow IMO Member States, observer organizations (IGOs and NGOs) and United Nations system entities on-line access to post the dates and details of their activities in advance. The information submitted is then monitored by the Secretariat, who keeps the right to edit or delete any information posted and displayed on the IMO website.

(2) The use of particular designations of countries or territories in CoE provided by users does not imply the expression of any opinion, decision or judgement by IMO concerning the legal status of such countries or territories, or of their authorities and institutions or of the delimitation of their boundaries, or disputes over sovereignty.

(3) Whilst in principle CoE should contain accurate information, the possibility of inadvertent omissions or inaccuracies cannot be ruled out. Neither the International Maritime Organization nor its Secretariat or employees accept liability or responsibility whatsoever for the inaccuracy, incompleteness, omissions, lack of timeliness, or any error of the data displayed on CoE, or in connection with the management, operation or use of CoE.

(4) Neither the International Maritime Organization nor its Secretariat or employees accept any responsibility and shall not be liable for any direct, or indirect, or consequential loss to any person or entity caused by or arising from any information displayed on CoE, nor for harm resulting from the use of information contained in this database, or for any reliance on its accuracy, completeness or timeliness.

(5) Decisions based on information contained in this site are the sole responsibility of the user.

(6) If a user challenges the correctness of the displayed information, a report should be made by e-mail to ero@imo.org attaching any relevant documents. The communication will be transmitted by the IMO Secretariat to the data provider for appropriate action without delay.

(7) Neither the International Maritime Organization, nor its Secretariat or employees accept any liability for damages caused by computer viruses.
