- All attendees agree to comply with Anime Boston rules and policies, the directions of Anime Boston, Hynes, and Sheraton staff, and all applicable Massachusetts, Federal, and local laws.
- An attendee may have membership revoked and be expelled from the premises for any reason at the sole discretion of Anime Boston staff. No refund will be given in the event of such expulsion.

Credit card payments must be received within one day; mail-in payments must be received within two weeks or your payment will be cancelled. Payments which do not clear are subject to a $20 service charge. Anime Boston is not responsible for payments which are lost in the mail.
- Membership is non-refundable and non-transferrable. Badges and membership may not be resold. Staff reserve the right to check ID for anyone they suspect is carrying a badge that is not their own.
- Badges must be worn and visible at all times for access to convention events. Each attendee must retain possession of his or her own badge for the duration of the convention and may not loan or give the badge to anyone else except as directed by Anime Boston staff.
- No replacement will be provided for lost badges; a new membership must be purchased at the full rate. Damaged badges may be replaced at the discretion of the Director of Registration (bring the pieces to Registration).
- Anime Boston reserves the right to censor or refuse badge names that may be considered obscene, vulgar, or otherwise offensive or inappropriate. Such determination will be made at the sole discretion of Anime Boston staff.
- The only valid registration rates are those posted on the registration website. No discounts will be given except as listed there.
- Badges are only available for pickup during listed registration hours, and only at the convention. Badges will not be mailed. No badges of any sort will be issued other than during the listed registration hours.

- Each attendee must pick up his/her own badge. Party leaders are no longer allowed to pick up badges for memebers of their party
- Child attendees (under age 13 at time of the convention) must be registered at the same time as a paying 18+ adult member, who must accompany them at the time of badge pickup.

- Any person found attempting to forge a membership badge, or presenting forged ID, will be removed from the convention and may be banned from future Anime Boston and New England Anime Society events.
- Any attempt to compromise the security of the registration process or gain unauthorized access to attendee data will result in loss of access to the registration system, loss of Anime Boston 2010 registration without refund, and possible legal action.
- These policies may be modified at any time, as deemed necessary by Anime Boston 2010.
