In this form, we ask you for several types of personal data, like identification data (name, surname, company you’re connected to) and contact details (address, email address) of the attendee(s). For the avoidance of the doubt, if a third party buys a ticket for someone else (e.g. an employer for its employees) we will ask and process data from the attendees for whom a ticket will be bought.

After you’ve been registered, we will ask you to pay for your entrance ticket(s). Therefore, we may ask you for your bank account number, card number, name of the cardholder, the due date of the card, VAT number,… The processing of these data is a necessary step prior to entering into a contract with us. Without the processing of these data, you will be unable to attend (one of) our conferences.

We share the identification data and contact details of the attendees of our conferences with the exhibitors at our conferences. More information about our exhibitors can be found here.
