Name & Identification Policy

The BayCon Science-Fiction Convention is a community effort. As such, we do not sell tickets or admission. Instead, we sell memberships to individuals who are interested in experiencing what goes on at BayCon and in becoming a part of our community. As a member-based organization, we require our members' legal names (as would be listed on a government-issued ID) and current address information for our records. We reserve the right to require you to show us a government-issued photo ID with your name and address before registering you as a member or releasing your membership badge from our possession.

This policy does not prevent you from using a "fan name" or "nickname," although it is also our policy that if a fan name is given, the legal name will also appear on the member's badge. If you feel this would cause a problem, please come to the registration desk and ask to see the Registration Department Head, or contact the Registration Department Heads by e-mailing reg13@baycon.org.

Lost Badge Policy

Please Don't Lose Your Badge!!!!! We can not replace a lost badge. If, despite all your efforts to hang onto it, your badge becomes lost, please report it to the Registration and Con-Ops desks as soon as possible. Once your lost badge is reported, you may purchase a new membership (unfortunately, at full price). As soon as your lost badge is found, we will, with a huge sigh of relief, refund your second purchase. We realize that this policy is, to say the least, draconian, but in the past people have 'lost' their badges by handing them off to a friend, so for that reason there will be no exceptions.

Refund Policy

Any BayCon membership will be refunded if the refund is requested prior to the start of the convention. Refunds are subject to verification that funds have cleared into Artistic Solutions, Inc. accounts. Refunds may take up to 45 days to process to allow funds to clear. Once the convention has begun, memberships are transferable, but not refundable.

To Change Your Information

We realize that people are moving often in these unstable times. To change your address or contact information with BayCon e-mail reg13@baycon.org.
