For detailed information on the cookies we use and the purposes for which we use them, please see our cookie policy at www.uniprocommunications.com/cookiepolicy/

Transfers of personal information

We may share your personal information with any member of the Unipro Communications, including the selected third parties in connection with the event for direct marketing purposes, in order to enable you to access the services, provide you with customer support and conduct the other activities described in this privacy policy. We may also share recordings of the events and user generated content including your public contributions.

We use other companies, agents or contractors (“Service Providers”) to perform services on our behalf or to assist us with the provision of services to you. For example, we may engage Service Providers to provide market research, marketing (including competitions), advertising, communications, event management (including logistics, health and safety and audio-visual services), meetings and bookings (including accommodation), training, IT, hosting and other infrastructure (including for the operation of any virtual event and the functionality within it), subscription and discount management, payment processing, and data cleansing and processing services. In the course of providing such services, these Service Providers may have access to your personal information. These third parties are contractually bound only to use personal information to perform the services that we hire them to provide. We will always use our best efforts to ensure that all the Service Providers we work with will keep your personal data secure.

We may also disclose your personal information to third parties:

• • in the event that we sell or buy any business or assets, in which case we may disclose your personal data to the prospective seller or buyer of such business or assets;
  • if any member of the Unipro Communications or substantially all of its assets are acquired by a third party, in which case personal data about its customers will be one of the transferred assets; and
  • if we are under a duty to disclose or share your personal data in order to comply with any legal obligation or in order to enforce our terms and conditions or other agreements, or to protect the rights, property or safety of the Unipro Communications.

If you use one of our virtual products, e.g. Websites, Directory Sites, Webinars etc., or choose to allow your badge to be scanned at an event, we may pass the information you provide to third parties. Generally, this will be via a process whereby you, as the user, visit or interact with a third party e.g. visit a stand at an online exhibition, have your badge scanned or click on an asset branded and provided by a third party. In some instances, for example, a products listing site, you may reach out directly to a supplier or exhibitor who may contact you in return. In other instances, our virtual products are sponsored and, in such cases the data you provided to us will be given to the sponsor. Generally, we will let you know at the time of collection if a product is sponsored. If you wish to change your contact preferences with an individual exhibitor/sponsor, please follow their own unsubscribe request details. Unsubscribing with one of our products will stop that product from contacting you in the future, but not the individual third parties whom you have interacted with independently.

Where we store your data

The data that we collect from you may be transferred to, and stored at a destination outside Unipro Communications. It may also be processed by staff operating outside the Unipro Communications who work for us or for one of our suppliers. Such staff may be engaged in, among other things, the provision of services to you or the processing of your payment details.

Data retention of personal information

We store your data for no longer than necessary in relation to the purpose under which such data was collected. This is determined on a case-by-case basis and depends on things such as the nature of the data provided, why it was collected, the legal basis we rely upon to process the data, and our relevant legal or operation retention requirements. For example, if you request to delete your account, we still have to retain some data for fraud prevention purposes and financial auditing.

We use administrative, technical, and physical measures to safeguard personal information against loss, theft and unauthorised uses, access, or modifications.

Certain areas of our websites may be password protected. Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential. We ask you not to share your password(s) with anyone.
