Our approach to data is to collect the minimum volume required to successfully run our business. These include:
Our services are not suitable for children and therefore no children’s data is collected.

We collect your name, job title, employer, email address, mobile number and specific questions that relate to that event. We collect these via our “sign-up for alerts” page, registering our events or any of our free resources.
We may also collect financial details to ensure we meet our obligations to make payments to you. We do not collect credit card details as we use a 3rd party provider to accept payments and they retain your credit card details. Please view their privacy policy here

Comments
When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.
An anonymised string created from your e-mail address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service Privacy Policy is available here. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.
Embedded content from other websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.
These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website. We have no control over 3rd party websites and users access these links at their own risk.
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognise and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
