What & Who Does This Privacy Policy Apply To?
This Privacy Policy applies to both individuals and companies who might be legitimately interested in Gnaritus Tech Conference’ events.
Why We Process Your Data
We may process your data for a number of different purposes:
- To invite you to any of our latest, relevant events we are producing.
- To administer any event delegate booking, exhibition or sponsorship package you have purchased from us.
- To collect your feedback and opinion.
Our Lawful Basis For Processing Your Data
It is in Gnaritus Tech Conference legitimate business interest to keep its customers, speakers, sponsors, exhibitors and contacts informed of our latest content, products and services and to manage and administer their purchases.
We process customer data and use direct marketing as part of this legitimate interest. It is necessary for us to use a variety of direct marketing channels (including email, mail and telephone) and messages to ensure our contacts are kept informed, and wherever possible we make sure the messages we send are targeted and relevant.
We will keep your data safely and securely for as long as necessary or according to your instructions, and we review the data we hold at least once every three years. For more information about how we store your data, please contact us directly.
In particular you could expect to receive from us:
- An email inviting you to attend one of our future, relevant events.
- A mailing in the post or a telephone call about our future events.
- You can manage your preferences and unsubscribe from any or all of these different types of contact at any time.
- An invitation to speak, sponsor or exhibit.
What Type Of Data Do We Collect?
Gnaritus Tech Conference will only use your personal data to contact you in a way in which we believe you might reasonably expect and which will have no impact on your privacy. We use personal data in a way that our contacts would see as reasonable for business-to-business purposes. However, we will always give you the option to stop receiving communication from us and as such we use “legitimate interests” as our legal basis for making contact.
We collect and use personal information in order to provide the best possible service. When you register on our website, register for one of our events or sponsor one of our events, we will simply collect the non-sensitive information you would expect a B2B supplier to request. For example, we will ask for your:
- Name
- Job title
- Email address and telephone number
- Postal address
- Organisation name
- The industry you work in
- If you register as a delegate or sponsor, we may collect other data about you depending on what you decide to sign up for including payment details, if you choose to pay by card.
Third Party Data
We sometimes collect the information listed above about you indirectly from marketing list vendors.
As part of this process, we ask our suppliers to confirm that the information was legally acquired and that we have the right to obtain it and use it. And we very carefully select the individuals who we believe will be interested in our products.
The data we collect may be used by us for marketing purposes. Of course you can choose not to receive marketing from us by selecting the unsubscribe option available on each email or you can get in touch with us by emailing [email protected].
We may obtain your personal details from organisations such as social media sites, websites, marketing agencies or list brokers. Note that we will always strive to ensure that data supplied to us via third parties are provided legally. You always have a choice to refuse further contact.
We ensure all data is managed lawfully, fairly and transparently. We use third parties to also acquire data, we hold those parties to the same high standard. You have a right to be forgotten and can email us at [email protected] to request your personal data or any information related to privacy.
Recipients Of The Data We Collect
Sometimes we will share the data we collect from you with trusted third party providers to support our business. We always let you know this before we collect your data, so you can make an informed decision as to whether you want to share this or not.

- If you enter a competition at one of our conferences, you may be contacted by the sponsor of that competition. The competition will be clearly labelled by the sponsor at the conference.
