• We securely protect your personal data and also require this from parties that process your personal data on our behalf.
• You can always view, correct, or delete your personal data.

  Security measures We have taken the following security measures to protect your personal data:

What do we use your data for? When you sign up for an event via our website, we ask for the following personal data:

• Email address (required field)
• Organization where you work (required field)
• Sector of the organization you work in
