There are two sections to our privacy statement, the Plain English section, and the Details section. The Details section is an edited version of the Model Privacy Statement available online at TRUSTe's web site.
Our Privacy Statement in Plain English
We don't want any information about you that you don't want us to have. If you have provided your details as part of registration with GFC2007, some information about you (email address, contact numbers, etc.) is necessary in order to do things like complete your registration, but you would have to voluntarily give that information to us in order for us to have it. If we have information about you, we don't sell, rent, or share it.
Details of Our Privacy Statement Information Collection and Use
The Organisers of GFC2007 is the sole owner of the information collected on this site. We will not sell, share, or rent this information to others in ways different from what is disclosed in this statement. The Organisers of GFC2007 collect information from our users at several different points on our website.
Speaker Login & Registration
We request information from participants on our registration and login pages. Here an existing user must provide the username and password provided to them by the Organisers of GFC2007. If a new (or previously unlisted) user wishes to register for the GFC2007 we require some basic contact information (like organisation name, contact name, address, etc). This information is used to ensure that the entry doesn't already exist in the directory and to create new usernames and passwords. If we have trouble processing a request, this contact information is used to get in touch with the user.
