These meetings are organized by volunteers (KnowledgeNet chapter chairs) and take place at various locations that donate their space for the meetings.

These include conferences such as the Global Privacy Summit and the Data Protection Congress. If you register for one of our events and you are a member, we will access the information in your member account to provide you with information and services associated with the event. You may be asked to provide more information when signing up for an event than is found in your IAPP profile (e.g. whether it’s your first IAPP event, your meal preferences, and some information about your title and industry).</p> <p>If you are not a member and you sign up for one of our events, we will collect the following information: name, email, company, title, industry, address, phone number, whether it’s your first IAPP event, and your meal preferences.</p> <p>IAPP uses the information provided by event attendees to provide them with event services, including badge printing, tracking your Continuing Privacy Education (CPE) credits, tailoring sessions to meet the audience profile and to determine the sessions likely to require the biggest rooms, and related purposes connected with the event. We also use the information for billing purposes, as some attendees do not pay at the time of registration. After the event, IAPP de-identifies the information collected from attendees and uses de-identified information to review outcomes of past events and plan for future events.</p> <p>If you are a presenter at one of our events, we will collect information about you including your name, employer and contact information, and photograph, and we may also collect information provided by event attendees who evaluated your performance as a presenter. We may also make and store a recording of your voice and likeness in certain instances.</p> <p>We keep a record of your participation in IAPP events as an attendee or presenter. This information may be used to provide you with membership and certification services (such as, for example, keeping track of your Continuing Privacy Education (CPE) credits, or to tell you about other events and publications). It may also be used to help the IAPP understand our members’ needs and interests to better tailor our products and services to meet your needs.</p> <p>In association with attending one or more of our conferences, you will have the option to download the “IAPP Events App” to help you navigate the conference and plan your schedule. The IAPP Events App’s sole purpose is to act as a mobile interface for IAPP conferences, not to collect your data. The IAPP does not collect any personal information from your device, nor will the application ask for personal information to use the app. We do not access any other applications on your device. We do not monitor app data or analytics, nor do we use any tracking or analytics tools on this app. Although we may send “push notifications” to update your app, IAPP does not otherwise use it to communicate with you.</p> <p>When you register for a live event, you will have an opportunity to opt-in to be listed in an attendee list. This list is shared with event sponsors/exhibitors as well as other attendees. You will also have the opportunity to opt-in to receive advertising by mail from our event sponsors/exhibitors. In that case, the IAPP would engage a third-party mailing house and would not share your mailing address directly with the sponsor/exhibitor.</p> <p>Exhibitors at IAPP events may wish to scan your badge so they can contact you with more information. The IAPP uses Cvent to provide badge scanning services to exhibitors who request it. By allowing an exhibitor to scan your badge you are consenting to have Cvent provide the exhibitor with your contact information, and thereafter you may be contacted by the exhibitor post-event. If you do not wish the exhibitor to contact you, please communicate this directly with the exhibitor at the event or thereafter.</p> <table style="border: 1px solid #d9d9d9;" width="1278"> <thead> <tr style="background-color: #d9d9d9;"> <td style="border: 1px solid #a6a6a6;" width="200"> <p><strong>Personal data categories</strong></p> </td> <td style="border: 1px solid #a6a6a6;"> <p><strong>Purpose</strong></p> </td> <td style="border: 1px solid #a6a6a6;" width="0"> <p><strong>GDPR Lawful Basis</strong></p> </td> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <tr> <td style="border: 1px solid #a6a6a6;" width="0"> <p>Name, contact information, payment information</p> </td> <td style="border: 1px solid #a6a6a6;" width="0"> <p>Event registration; event app validation</p> </td> <td style="border: 1px solid #a6a6a6;" width="200"> <p>Contractual necessity (Article 6(1)(b))</p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td style="border: 1px solid #a6a6a6;" width="0"> <p>Professional biographical information; professional activities information; meal preference</p> </td> <td style="border: 1px solid #a6a6a6;" width="0"> <p>Ensure event subject matter and content is relevant to attendee needs; ensure adequate food and dietary provisions; badge printing; tracking Continuing Privacy Education (CPE credits); determining which sessions require larger rooms; providing attendees with information and services associated with the event</p> </td> <td style="border: 1px solid #a6a6a6;" width="200"> <p>IAPP’s legitimate interest (Article 6(1)(f))</p> </td> </tr> </tbody> </table> </li> <li> <p><strong>Web conferences</strong></p> <p>The IAPP offers several web conferences throughout the year.

This means that when you register for a co-sponsored, live web conference, you will be providing your registration information to both the IAPP and the applicable co-sponsor.

When technically feasible, the IAPP will—at your request—provide your personal data to you or transmit it directly to another controller.</p> <p>You may, at no cost to you, generate a report of most of the personal data the IAPP has regarding you by visiting our data access request portal: <a href="https://iapp.org/about/data-access-request/">https://iapp.org/about/data-access-request/</a>. Using this portal also authenticates you and supports your submission of a more comprehensive access request.

If for some reason access is denied, the IAPP will provide an explanation as to why access has been denied.</p> <p>For questions or complaints concerning the processing of your personal data, you can email the IAPP’s data protection officer at <a href="mailto:privacy@iapp.org">privacy@iapp.org</a>.</p> <p>In many jurisdictions, including but not limited to in the European Union, you have recourse with your nation’s data protection authority.
