Privacy Policy

Privacy Principles in detail

How do we collect information about you?
When you register for an event and/or subscribe to any of our services, the registration form includes notices about privacy and requests for consent. Those privacy notices (called privacy statements) specify in more detail how any information about you may be used and disclosed. In particular, you consent to us collecting, maintaining, using and disclosing personal information about you and provided by you or by another person in accordance with the privacy statement in the application form and this policy.

The personal information we collect from these sources is your salutation, name, job title, phone number and email address. We also collect business information being your company’s name and address, your business telephone and fax numbers and a short profile of the company you work for. As well, we collect personal information about you from publicly available sources, or when legally required to do so.

The information we collect is used only to:

  • Verify your identity.
  • Assist you to enroll for our events or to subscribe to our publications.
  • Promote our events and publishing titles to you.
  • Maintain and develop our database.
  • Share information from time to time with other professional organizations.

We also collect some statistical data about visitors to our website, such as number of visits, pages viewed, types of transactions conducted, time online and documents downloaded. Some of this information is collected by using “cookies”, or small text files to hold data; but none of the information we collect allows us to identify a visitor.
