2.How we collect and use your personal information
We will collect your personal information if you complete an application form or registration form to participate in one of the exhibitions or fairs (“exhibition(s)”).

When we collect personal information from you, we will indicate whether any personal information we have requested from you is mandatory or optional and explain the consequences if you decide not to provide that information. If all of the information is not provided by yourself then it will be difficult to contact you to confirm the arrangements in relation to an exhibition. For exhibitors, it may also mean that your booth is not situated in the correct display area at the exhibition or fair if you do not provide us with sufficient information relating to your products and/or services. The information provided may be used for the purpose of allocating a booth location based upon the categorisation of your goods or services. We may also ask you to complete surveys that we use for research purposes, although you are not obligated to complete the survey.

In case we share your Personal Data with such third-party companies, we take steps to ensure that the third-party companies use appropriate safeguards to protect your Personal Data. Furthermore, we share your personal information in the clearly identifiable public areas of our Website.
We reserve the right to disclose your Personal Data as we reasonably feel is necessary to protect our systems or business, including but not limited to complying with judicial orders or with government agencies or law enforcement officials to the extent the disclosure is in accordance with applicable data protection laws.
