collects and uses the personal information provided via our websites as well as related applications, services and programs offered by Beacon.</p> <p>Beacon as a data controller is committed to protecting your personal information. Our principal place of business is at Unit 12-105, 12/F, YF Life Tower, 33 Lockhart Road, Wanchai, Hong Kong. More information about Beacon and its products and services can be found at <a href="https://www.beaconevents.com/">https://www.beaconevents.com</a>.</p> <p>If you have any questions or concerns relating to Beacon’s websites and/or data protection, please email <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection" class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="2e5e5c47584f4d576e6c4b4f4d41406b584b405a5d004d4143">[email protected]</a>.</p> <p style="padding-left: 30px;"><span style="font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Information we collect</strong></span></p> <p>1.1 Online forms</p> <p>We collect information from visitors to our websites when completing online forms. Personal information is data that identifies you and includes (but is not limited to) your name, business or personal email address, job title, organisation, organisation’s address, direct telephone number.</p> <p>1.2 Communications</p> <p>When you communicate with us by telephone, fax, email or other forms of electronic means we collect information about you. In this respect, we may monitor, record and store any such communication in accordance with this Privacy Policy.</p> <p>1.3 Award nomination entries</p> <p>When individuals complete a nomination for the one of our awards, they submit their information and that of the nominee in an application form. Any personal information that is provided is used to review the nomination. The information about the winner may also be published on our website and social media channels.</p> <p>1.4 Live Chat service</p> <p>We may use a Live Chat service to handle customer enquiries in real time. If you use the Live Chat service we will collect your email address, if provided, and the contents of your Live Chat session.</p> <p>1.5 Information collected by third parties</p> <p>When you visit our website, we automatically collect and analyse certain information about your computer.

Third parties may use cookies and other technologies to collect information about your online activities.

Refer to our Cookie Policy for more details.</p> <p>1.7 Videography and Photography</p> <p>At Beacon’s events, video and photography equipment will be present. This includes the filming/ photography of events presentations, interviews with partners and delegates and highlight footage. Prior consent will be required for events presentations and interview footage to be shared. When contributors give informed consent to take part in our output, they can be assumed to have waived their expectations of privacy in relation to their contribution, subject to any agreed conditions placed on their participation.</p> <p>Cameras may also be present to relay footage on to screens throughout the event venue, to provide a clearer view for the audience. Signage will be used to notify delegates that filming, and photography will be taking place.</p> <p>For events highlight footage we do not normally obtain express consent from individuals who are incidentally caught on camera as part of the general scene, however we will not purposefully film any footage that makes an individual identifiable, beyond the aforementioned activities that already require consent.</p> <p>Signage will also indicate that photography will be taking place at our events. We do not obtain prior consent for general photography at our events. However, if an individual or organisation asks us to not to include them in the shot, due to a concern about privacy, we should normally do so, unless it is editorially justified to continue.</p> <p>Occasionally, partners may also film at Beacon’s events. Joint consent will be obtained prior to filming, in accordance to the above formats outlined. Where a partner is involved in the videography process, the participant will be notified.</p> <p style="padding-left: 30px;"><span style="font-size: 14pt;"><strong>How we use the information we collect:</strong></span></p> <p>Beacon processes personal information collected via our websites and registration forms for the following legitimate interests:</p> <p>2.1 Communications & Marketing</p> <p>Your information may be used to send you details of those products or services that we offer that we have identified as likely to be of interest to you.

This policy explains how we do that.</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>What are cookies?</strong></p> <p>Cookies are small text files which a website may put on your computer or mobile device when you first visit a site or page. The cookie will help the website to recognise your device the next time you visit.</p> <p>There are many functions cookies serve. For example, they can help us to remember your username and preferences, analyse how well our website is performing and allow us to recommend content we believe will be most relevant to you.</p> <p>Certain cookies contain personal information – for example, if you click to “remember me” when logging in, a cookie will store your username.</p> <p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>What sort of cookies do Beacon use?</strong></p> <h4><strong>1. </strong><strong>Performance Cookies</strong></h4> <p>We utilise other cookies to analyse how our visitors use our websites and to monitor website performance. This allows us to provide a high quality experience by customising our offering and quickly identifying and fixing any issues that may arise. For example, we might use performance cookies to keep track of which pages are most popular, which method of linking between pages is most effective, and to determine why some pages are receiving error messages. We might also use these cookies to highlight articles or site services that we think will be of interest to you based on your usage of the website.</p> <h4><strong>2. </strong><strong>Functionality Cookies</strong></h4> <p>We use functionality cookies to allow us to remember your preferences. For example, cookies save you the trouble of typing in your username every time you access the site, and recall your preferences, such as which sections of the website you want to see when you log in.</p> <h4><strong>3. </strong><strong>Behaviourally Targeted Advertising Cookies</strong></h4> <p>Beacon and our advertisers sometimes use cookies to serve you with targeted advertisements that we believe are relevant to you and your interests.</p> <p>We also use or allow third parties to serve cookies.
