As used in this policy, “personal information” means information that can identify an individual directly or indirectly, such as your name, email address, telephone number, IP address, or other online identifiers. We collect membership information to provide better services to our users.

1. Purpose of Collection and Use of Personal Information

We collect information solely for the purpose of providing services to our members and facilitating our communication with them. We do not collect or use personal information for any other purposes. The personal information provided to us by members makes it possible for us to deliver, based on it, more useful information selectively.

Emails and Newsletters

We use the personal information you provide when subscribing to our newsletter to respond to your request and to send communications related to conference news and events. Newsletters are sent only to users who have provided explicit consent to receive them.

Registered Users

When you register for a user account, you may be required to provide personal information such as your real name and email address.

4. Range of Cookie Use

When members visit our site, cookies may be used only for essential and functional purposes, such as browser type, monitor information, operating system version, or login-related data. Cookies are not used to collect personally identifiable information for analytics or advertising purposes.

5. Security Management for Personal Information

We have implemented reasonable measures to protect personal information from unauthorized access or unlawful processing. However, no website can completely eliminate security risks. A prominent notice will be posted if a security breach occurs. We never ask members for their passwords. Users are encouraged to keep their login information secure and may enable two-factor authentication (2FA) where available to enhance account protection.

6. Data Usage Policy

Non-Personal Browsing Information We Collect

No Linking

We do not intentionally link browsing information or server logs to the personal information you submit.

No Selling or Sharing.

We do not sell or voluntarily share browsing data with third parties except where required by law.

No Retention

The conference discards nonpersonal browsing information from our server logs once we have used the information for the limited purposes noted above, under “No Linking.” Notice If we are required to provide a third party with your nonpersonal browsing information, then, we will use reasonable means to notify you promptly of that event, unless we are prohibited by law from doing so or are otherwise advised not to notify you on the advice of legal counsel. Any other non-personal information that we collect that is not described specifically in this Privacy Policy will only be collected and used in accordance with the principles.

7. Changes and Updates to this Privacy Policy
