WHAT WE COLLECT

This section explains what personal information we collect.

This section describes what personal information we may collect from you when
you use our products and services, and what other personal information we may
receive from other sources.

In this Privacy Policy, personal information refers to the types of personal
information that may be collected and used, including:

 * Contact details such as name, email address, postal address and telephone
   number
 * Educational, nationality and professional information
 * Demographic information such as gender and birth date
 * Usernames and passwords
 * Payment information, such as a credit or debit card number or bank account
   details
 * Comments, feedback, ratings, posts and other content submitted, including
   survey information
 * Interests and communication preferences including marketing permissions where
   appropriate
 * Location information, such as provided through a mobile app and Bluetooth
   beacons
 * Images, including photographs and video footage, for example via CCTV or
   cameras in our mobile apps, or where we require a photograph on an event
   badge for security purposes
 * Audio notes, such as via our mobile apps
 * Information verifying your identity such as passport details to comply with
   legal obligations in certain countries and to provide visa invitation letters
   where requested
 * IP address, website and communication usage information, such as
   correspondence and details of your use of our website and services obtained
   through cookies or other tracking technologies

This personal information relates to the following categories of people:

 * Prospects, customer contacts, subscribers and users in respect of our
   services and products
 * Visitors, sponsors, exhibitors and speakers at our events
 * Professionals featured in digital and print products, such as senior
   executive details made available through intelligence products, research,
   publications
 * Authors, editors, and reviewers in respect of our publications
 * Contacts of our service providers and business partners

We may collect this information directly from you when you register for an event
or engage with our services and/or platforms. We may also collect this
information from third party partners and public sources to the extent permitted
by applicable data protection law. In some cases, the data we collect from third
parties is provided in a de-identified form and we are only able to connect it
to you, if, and when you enter your email address on one of the Informa sites.


SENSITIVE PERSONAL INFORMATION

If collecting or storing your sensitive personal information, such as
information relating to health, disability status or religious beliefs, in order
to facilitate your attendance at one of our events, we will typically ask for
your explicit consent. However, there are some limited situations where this
will not occur, such as if you have a serious accident. If this does occur, we
will ensure your privacy rights are protected.


DATA COLLECTED BY THIRD PARTIES AT OUR EVENTS

In some cases, third parties attending our events may collect information about
you, for example by taking a photograph of your business card on one of our
event mobile apps, or by scanning your visitor badge. We are not the data
controller of this data, cannot access the data and are not responsible for
third party use. For further information, please see any relevant third party
privacy policies or the applicable terms of use for the relevant app.


AGGREGATED OR ANONYMISED PERSONAL INFORMATION

We may create anonymous or aggregated data from personal information we receive
about you and other individuals.. Anonymous data might include statistical data
or analytics information and we may share this with third party customers.

In certain instances, your employer or another organization may provide you with
access to our services. In those cases, your employer will only receive
aggregate information, and not personal information about your engagement with
our services. For example, we may share that a majority of employees registered
with us have fulfilled a certain certification course; however, we will not
provide employers with information about which of their employees fulfilled a
particular course or which employees are open to recruitment opportunities. We
do however reserve the right to alert your employer or other organization to
your having been banned from our services. These instances will occur only
following a breach of our Terms of Service or community standards (i.e.,
egregious harassment of another member, repeated instances of fraud, etc.).


CHILDREN’S PERSONAL INFORMATION

Our services and products are directed at business professionals. They are not
intended for children under the age of sixteen. We do not knowingly collect
personal information from users in this age group and reserve the right to
delete such information if we become aware of having collected it. If children’s
data is collected, this is only via direct input from parents, guardians or
teachers, and its usage is protected by clear licence terms aligned to
applicable laws.


HOW AND WHY PERSONAL INFORMATION IS USED

This section explains how and why we use personal information.


PRODUCT ENQUIRIES, SALES AND ADMINISTRATION

If you have made an enquiry about us or our products or services, either online
or over the phone, your personal information will be used to respond to the
enquiry or to take other steps at your request, prior to you entering into a
contract with us.

If you have purchased or registered for one of our products or services,
including on a trial basis, we will use your personal information, including
bank or card details, to provide you with the product or service, communicate
with you about it, handle payments and recover any debts.


CALL MONITORING FOR TRAINING AND QUALITY MONITORING PURPOSES

Where one of our sales representatives speaks to you over the phone, the calls
are recorded for training and monitoring purposes.


TO INCLUDE PROFESSIONAL INFORMATION IN OUR PRODUCTS AND CONSULTING SERVICES

If your professional personal information is relevant to our products and is
freely available through public sources, such as a website related to your work
or profession, listed directories, press releases, industry publications, or if
you provide it to us, to the extent permitted by applicable data protection
laws, we may use such personal information in the products we provide to
customers, for example in subscription products, research, industry analysis and
insights. We may also check your information against the information listed on
available databases, to identify and verify your professional status.

If you make an enquiry or engage us to provide consulting services or
research/analysis, we will collect information such as your name, country, job
title, company information or academic affiliation, postal address, e-mail
address and telephone number. We will use your personal information to respond
to the enquiry or to fulfil consulting services.


FOR EVENT AND EXHIBITION MANAGEMENT

If you participate in one of our events as a speaker, sponsor, exhibitor or
attendee, your personal information will be used in connection with the running
of the event, to handle payments and recover debts. This includes our legitimate
business interests in carrying out logistic, administrative and analytics
activities, to ensure our events run smoothly and so that we can offer an
improved experience for our customers.

We may also use your personal information to maintain databases that allow us to
assess your qualities as a speaker or sponsor/exhibitor, promote events and
encourage further engagement at our events, and to request references in certain
circumstances.

Where we have your consent to do so, we may share your personal information with
exhibitors at the event you are going to attend, so that they can contact you in
advance and arrange to meet with you during the event.

In addition, photos and videos are taken at our events, which may feature
attendees, speakers, sponsors or exhibitors. Where we have taken photos and
videos at our events that feature you as an attendee, sponsor or exhibitor, to
the extent permitted by applicable data protection laws, those photos and videos
may be used for promotional purposes. Third parties may also take photographs at
our events, for example to maintain a record of stands or exhibitors they have
visited. We are not responsible for the collection or use of images taken by
third parties.

Where events and exhibitions use badge scanning technology, your personal
information will be used to identify you at certain access points, such as to
access VIP areas, seminars, entry and exit in other areas of the event. This
will provide certain location information. Badges cannot be read remotely.

The personal information obtained from badge scanning will be used for access
control, security and analysing visitor traffic with a view to improving the
event experience for visitors and others. We may also use de-identified image
data taken from cameras and/or location data collected via a mobile phone app
and Bluetooth beacons to analyse visitor traffic and/or to assess attendance at
particular seminars or presentations. This data may be shared with the relevant
exhibitors.

You can also allow your badge to be scanned by event exhibitors. When you do so
your contact details will be shared with the relevant exhibitor and used in
accordance with applicable data protection laws, the exhibitor’s privacy policy
and any other notices or consents you are provided with or given at the event.

Where we are hosting and managing a virtual exhibition or event, Informa (and
any third party platform provider acting on our behalf) will use your personal
information provided during the registration process to host and manage this
digital event; and also for analyzing visitor interactions and traffic with a
view to improving the event experience for visitors and provide you with a
personalized experience.

When you enter virtual spaces, zones or rooms such as an exhibition booth, your
personal information may be shared with the sponsor and exhibitor to allow them
to engage with you subject to the attendee privacy notice you may have been
provided during the registration and login process.


FOR OUR PUBLISHING SERVICES

If you publish work with us, your personal information, including the personal
information of any named representative or beneficiary, is used in connection
with the dissemination and promotion of your published work, and fulfilment of
any contractual obligations, as is necessary for the purposes of our legitimate
interests as a commercial organisation. Your name and affiliation will be
published as part of authored work. Personal information is also used to handle
payments or for other purposes, as is necessary to perform the contract entered
into with us.

In addition, we sometimes take photos and videos at events associated with your
published work. Where photos and videos are taken at our events that feature you
as an author, we may use those photos and videos for promotional purposes.


FOR MARKETING

We may use your personal information to send you newsletters, offers or other
marketing emails that keep you up to date with our news, events and products
that may be of interest. Depending on the nature of your interaction with us and
applicable data protection laws, you may have actively given us your consent
(i.e. opted in) or we may be entitled to rely on your implied consent or
legitimate interests to market to you. The opportunity to opt out of future
marketing will always be provided, and you have the right to amend your
marketing preferences at any time (see Your Rights section).

In some circumstances, where we have a lawful basis and you have provided your
mobile telephone number, we may send marketing SMS/text messages or call you for
marketing purposes, in accordance with applicable local laws. We may also send
postal mailings with information on new products and events, where we have a
lawful basis to do so and you have provided us with your postal address.

Many of our events and products are co-branded or sponsored by third party
exhibitors or sponsors. We may share your details with these third party
partners. Where this happens, a clear notice will be provided, that gives the
opportunity to opt out or opt in to such sharing as required by applicable data
protection laws. The third party

partner’s use of your details will be in accordance with the notice provided and
its privacy policy, and is not covered by this Privacy Policy.


FOR GAMIFICATION

Gamification describes the incentivization of user's engagement in non-game
contexts and activities by using game-style mechanics. Gamification leverages a
user's natural tendencies for competition and achievement by rewarding a user
for performing and repeating a specific action (e.g., sign up for an event, view
a conference agenda, tag a user in a photo).

When you download and use some of our mobile applications and interact with
event-specific capabilities, we may collect information about your behavior
(e.g., view an event guide, check out an event schedule, view attendee profile,
send a message, add event session to your schedule) for the purposes of
gamification. For each event-related activity that you perform within the mobile
application, we will score your activity, compare and rank your activity with
the activity information of other users. You are able to see this scoring
information and to grant permission to others to see, share, edit, copy, and
download that content based on your select settings.

Additionally, some of the gamification features of the mobile application
services display some or all your profile information to other mobile
application users when you share or interact with specific content. For example,
when you add a session to your schedule, we display your profile picture and
name next to the session so that other users with access to the session can see
who the other attendees are. You are able to control this sharing via your
settings and you may also opt out of gamification at any time.


FOR OUR CLIENT-FACING MARKETING SERVICES

Informa will combine the personal information that they collect from you,
including much of the information in the “what we collect” section above, with
personal data collected from certain trusted third party sources and use this
information to create profiles in order to determine your/your company’s
commercial interests.

For example, we will collate the information you provide as part of your
registration for events, information you generate in connection with your
attendance at events, information obtained by us using first party cookies and
tracking technology on our websites and apps and certain information we obtain
from third parties (such as data providers) to analyse, segment and determine
which marketing segments you fall within.

This information can then be used by, or for the benefit of, our clients in
different ways as part of our marketing service offering to enable these clients
to undertake tailored and targeted advertising campaigns. Our clients can
present individuals with information about products and services that our
clients think will be of interest to them via various channels based on the
marketing segments we have developed and allocated individuals to. In many cases
these advertising campaigns are run by us on behalf of clients without us ever
sharing any personal data with the relevant clients (including via marketing
emails, and social media channels and our advertising partners who facilitate
advertising on third party sites). In other cases, we may provide to clients
information that the client is unable to use to identify you in order for them
to instigate their own marketing campaigns. In all cases, our activities are
undertaken to the extent permitted by applicable law. These activities are
undertaken based on individuals’ marketing consents. Therefore, if you have
exercised your rights to opt out of email marketing, you will not be marketed to
in connection with the marketing services we provide to clients via any channel.

The activities that we, and our third party partners, undertake may entail
automated and machine learning-based processing of data to analyse or predict
behaviours and preferences (e.g. interests in certain content, services and/or
at events). The algorithm will identify companies and individuals with similar
characteristics to companies and individuals that we know are interested in
certain services, generating a similarity score for those clients. We will then
enrich the information we hold about companies and individuals and send
advertising to prospects based on this analysis.


IN SOCIAL MEDIA

We may use your personal information to undertake advertising campaigns on
social media platforms such as LinkedIn, Instagram and Facebook in order to
provide information about upcoming events or new products and to ensure you only
receive relevant advertising about our products and services. We may share your
personal

information with social media platforms so that you see advertising about our,
or our partners’, products and services that we think you will be interested in
when you interact with the relevant social media platform. We may also share
your personal information with social media platforms to help us present
relevant advertising to individuals who the social media platforms determine are
likely to have similar interests to you.

We maintain presences on social media platforms, through our company and brand
pages. We collect personal information when you interact with us on social
media. Please note that these social media platforms may set cookies and other
tracking technologies on your device when you visit their pages and when you
navigate from their pages.

The output of such information may be provided to us (usually for statistical
purposes to see how users interact with our content on social media platforms).
The social media platforms are responsible for how they handle your personal
information and information about how these social media platforms collect and
use your personal information (and how they use cookies and other technologies,
including instructions on how you can disable these) can usually be found in
their respective privacy policies and cookies policies on their respective
websites. For customer and prospects management (including analytics and product
management)


FOR SURVEYS

We may use your personal information to undertake research surveys for ourselves
or on behalf of a third party. This includes your contact information,
pseudonymised demographic information and any feedback or answers you provide.
Surveys may be carried out digitally or face-to-face.


FOR CUSTOMER AND PROSPECTS MANAGEMENT (INCLUDING ANALYTICS AND PRODUCT
MANAGEMENT)

The personal information held about you, combined with other personal
information legitimately obtained and shared with us by third parties or
publicly available data, may be used to better understand our customers and
their preferences and to improve the products and services delivered. This may
include automated profiling and campaign management techniques.

Data may also be used in advertising campaigns on social media platforms such as
LinkedIn, Instagram and Facebook in order to provide information about upcoming
events or new products and to ensure you only receive relevant advertising about
our products and services as described above.


FOR MOBILE APPLICATIONS AND WEBSITE ANALYTICS

We may combine visitor session information or other information collected
through tracking technologies, whether you are logged in or not, with personally
identifiable information to understand and analyse your online experiences,
improve the efficiency and operation of our websites or services and determine
which events, products and services are likely to be of interest to you.

Where you consent to the use of your location data, certain mobile applications
may use location data to assist you to navigate around events and bring
exhibitors’ and sponsors’ products to your attention whilst you are using the
app.

Our marketing related emails contain a single, campaign-unique “web beacon
pixel” to tell us whether emails are opened, and combined with other technology,
to verify any clicks through to links within the email. We may use this
information for purposes including determining which of our emails are more
interesting and to query whether users who do not open our emails wish to
continue receiving them. The pixel will be deleted when you delete the email.

Where you subscribe to an online service, the accompanying emails similarly
include a pixel. We track interaction with these emails and our online services
to validate attendance for accreditation purposes, to help determine which
information is of interest to you and to customise the advertisements seen on
our sites.

If you do not wish the pixel to be downloaded to your device, you should choose
not to click links that we send or to opt out of email marketing or online
events. This information may be connected to your personal identity.

While we strive to offer choice when using our website and mobile applications,
we do not promise that we will be able to receive or honor web browser Do Not
Track signals.


WITHIN ONLINE MEMBERSHIP COMMUNITIES, BULLETIN BOARDS AND CHAT AREAS

You may choose to participate in online membership communities on our sites that
allow you to create and publish a profile and other personal information. These
communities may provide privacy controls that allow choice in how much of your
profile and other information to make public or to share with others within the
community. Some platforms also provide membership of wider communities within
your industry.

Privacy controls are usually found on the page on which you edit your profile,
and each individual is responsible for understanding how those controls work,
including default settings, and choosing how the information provided is shared
and protected. By participating in these online membership communities, other
members of the community may be able to view some of your personal information
and you may be contacted by other participants using the information provided.

When you disclose personal information on any public community boards or chat
areas on such websites, your personal information can be collected and used by
anyone who views that board or area. This may result in unsolicited messages
from other participants or other parties, which are outside of our control or
responsibility.

However, where you engage with us in customer enquiry chat areas, this is
private and we will use any information provided to help recommend products
and/or assist with confirming any order you wish to place.


FOR ENQUIRIES AND COMPLAINTS

Any personal information provided on the Contact Us page will be used only to
provide a response, find a resolution to the complaint or to service the request
or enquiry made. The information provided will not be added to the marketing or
customer prospect databases of Informa’s operating divisions.


FOR NEWS ALERTS

The information collected when you sign up for news alerts is used only to
provide that service, and to understand the background and interests of our
subscriber list.

In providing the service we gather statistics about how many emails are opened,
using industry standard technologies including image downloads. This is to help
us monitor and improve the news alerts service and information is collected and
analysed at an aggregate level only.

With your permission, from time-to-time Informa may use your registration
details to contact you about the news alerts service. You can unsubscribe from
the service at any time using links provided within our emails.


IN AUTOMATED DECISION-MAKING, INCLUDING PROFILING

We use fully automated algorithm-based technologies to personalise dynamic web
content based on your explicit and/or implicit interests. General profiling,
such as segmentation, is carried out for the purpose of providing a more
relevant experience. Additionally, in our publishing business it may be used
where your answers to an application to receive a sample inspection copy of a
textbook determines whether the request is granted or is implemented in certain
cases, to ensure we deliver a timely and reliable service to customers.
Automated decision making is never used in any way that produces a legal or
similarly significant effect.

When we use these techniques, we use measures to avoid legally discriminatory
biases and inaccuracies. These automated processes may result in different
content being shown to you.


FOR FULFILMENT OF OUR LEGAL OBLIGATIONS INCLUDING ANTI-FRAUD MEASURES AND
SCREENING

It is industry standard for companies to access and use certain personal
information to prevent fraud and other crimes, as may be required by applicable
law and regulation and best practice at any given time. If false or inaccurate
information is provided and fraud is identified or suspected, details may be
passed to fraud prevention agencies and may be recorded by us or by them.

To ensure we comply with international trade sanction laws and regulations,
where appropriate customers, vendors and suppliers are screened against
applicable sanctions lists.

We may also collect categories of personal information required by local law in
order to obtain an event licence or to respond to queries or requests made by
law enforcement.


HOW WE PROTECT PERSONAL INFORMATION

We recognise the importance of protecting and managing personal information.
Your personal information will be treated with the utmost care and security This
section sets out some of the security measures in place.

We use a variety of physical and technical measures to keep personal information
safe and prevent unauthorised access to or use or disclosure of it. Electronic
data and databases are stored on secure computer systems with control over who
has access to information using both physical and electronic means. Our
colleagues receive data protection training and there is a set of detailed
security and data protection policies which colleagues are required to follow
when handling personal information.

While we take all reasonable steps to ensure that personal information will be
kept secure from unauthorised access, we cannot guarantee it will be secure
during transmission by you to a website or other services, as we do not control
that transmission. We make use of HTTPS (HTTP Secure) whereby the communication
protocol is encrypted via Transport Layer Security (TLS) for secure
communication over a computer network. The website is loaded via HTTPS,
represented by the lock icon in your web browser ensuring the transmission is
secured with a certificate issued by an official security certificate authority
to the Informa Controller operating it.


INTERNATIONAL TRANSFER OF PERSONAL INFORMATION

This section explains our process around transferring personal information
internationally.

Due to the international nature of our business and the technologies required,
personal information may be accessed by our colleagues and third-party service
providers from locations all around the world, whose data protection laws may
not be as extensive as those in regions such as the European Union.

We put in place appropriate protection, including Standard Contractual Clauses
where applicable, to make sure your personal information remains adequately
protected and is treated in line with this policy and applicable data protection
laws.

Certain country specific requirements apply to this section, as listed below in
the country supplements.


COOKIES

More information on our use of cookies can be found in our Cookie Policy.

A cookie is a small text file containing a unique identifier that is
automatically placed on a user’s computer or other device when the user visits a
website. For more information, please visit our Cookie Policy link on the bottom
of the website page.


THIRD-PARTY LINKS

This section explains that third party links on our websites are subject to
separate privacy practices.

This website contains links to other websites. We are not responsible for the
privacy practices of these websites and do not accept any liability in
connection with their content. We recommend reviewing the privacy policy of each
third- party site linked from this website to determine its use of your personal
information.


WHO PERSONAL INFORMATION IS SHARED WITH

As a global multinational to provide you with our services and products, your
information may be shared for specific reasons. This section explains how and
why personal data is shared.


SHARING WITH INFORMA GROUP COMPANIES

We may share your personal information with other companies within the Informa
Group for specific purposes. For example, other Informa companies may assist in
providing our products and services, carry out internal analysis of the usage of
our and their products and services, or where permitted under applicable data
protection law, offer relevant products and services which might interest you.


SHARING WITH SERVICE PROVIDERS

We may share your personal information with third parties who assist in
providing our products and services and administering our business. These
include IT and marketing technology host suppliers, web and data hosting
providers, mailing houses, ad servers, logistics and general services
contractors, debt collection agencies, onsite health and safety partners, event
registration partners, sales platform providers, communication tool providers,
stand designers/builders/fitters, suppliers of sponsorship/marketing/PR
collateral and other event collaboration partners. Personal information will
only be shared with third parties if and to the extent it is necessary for them
to provide our products and services to you.

We use web chat services including Intercom, LiveAdmins, Live Chat, Casengo that
allow us to connect with you and answer sales and customer services questions
quickly and directly. We ensure these service providers protect your data but
these chats are intended to provide quick answers to basic service questions
only, and you should not provide any sensitive information, such as bank or
credit card details in these chats.

These data processors are bound to compliance through contracts in place that
protect the personal information you have shared with us.


SHARING WITH OTHER ORGANISATIONS

We may share your personal information, including contact details and product or
service interaction with trusted partner organisations for their marketing
purposes, in accordance with local data protection laws and where required, with
your permissions.

If you use one of our virtual products, such as a virtual exhibition, directory
site or webinars, or choose to allow your badge to be scanned at an event, we
may pass the information you provide to third parties. Generally, this will be
via a process whereby you, as the user, visit or interact with a third party,
such as visiting a stand at an online exhibition, having your badge scanned or
clicking an asset branded and provided by a third party. In some instances, for
example, a product listing site, you may reach out directly to a supplier or
exhibitor, who may contact you in return. In other instances, our virtual
products are sponsored and in these cases, the data provided will be given to
the sponsor. Generally, we will let you know at the time of collection if a
product is sponsored.

If Taylor and Francis provides a service to you on behalf of an organisation,
which you are a member of, we will only share the necessary data to provide the
service. To assist in this, we comply with various recognised Codes of Conduct
such as the GÉANT Data Protection Code of Conduct

We may share your personal information with clients and data providers in
connection with the marketing services referred to above, who are bound to
process that data strictly in compliance with applicable law.


TO REORGANISE OR MAKE CHANGES TO OUR BUSINESS

If we are subject to negotiations for the sale of all or a part of our business
to a third party, are sold to a third party or undergo a re-organisation, we may
need to transfer some or all of your personal information to the relevant third
party or its advisors as part of any due diligence process. Any information that
is transferred to that re-organised entity or third party will be used for the
same purposes as set out in this policy, or for the purpose of analysing any
proposed sale or re-organisation.


IN CONNECTION WITH LEGAL OR REGULATORY OBLIGATIONS

We may process your personal information to comply with our legal and regulatory
requirements or to respond to regulators where applicable. This may include
disclosing your personal information to third parties, the court service and/or
regulators or law enforcement agencies in connection with enquiries, proceedings
or investigations by such parties anywhere in the world or where compelled to do
so.

In some circumstances, we may be legally required to disclose your personal
information because a court, the police, another judicial or law enforcement
body or government entity has asked us for it.


HOW LONG YOUR INFORMATION IS KEPT

We will only retain personal information for as long as is necessary and as
permitted by applicable laws.

We will retain personal information while we are using it, as described in the
section above. We may continue to retain it after we have ceased such uses for
certain legitimate business purposes. For example, if you have opted out of
marketing communications from us, we will retain limited details about you to
ensure we can honor your opt-out request. We may also continue to retain your
personal information to meet our legal requirements or to defend or exercise our
legal rights.

The length of time for which we will retain your personal information will
depend on the purposes for which we need to retain it. After we no longer need
to retain your personal information, it will be deleted or securely destroyed.
