Collection of Personally Identifiable Information Many of the features of SHN Websites are available to you without providing personally identifiable information. However, the following are certain situations in which SHN may collect personally identifiable information from you:
Registration for Newsletters. If you register online for one of SHN’s newsletters, we may request personally identifiable information such as your name, e-mail address, birth date, gender, ZIP code, occupation, industry you work in, and other personal and/or demographic information. Forms. We may collect personally identifiable information from you if you choose to complete any of the forms, profiles, or surveys on SHN Websites. Correspondence. If you send SHN personal correspondence, such as emails or letters, or if other users or third parties send SHN correspondence about your activities on SHN Websites, SHN may choose to collect and maintain such information in a file specific to you. Business Partners. SHN may receive your personally identifiable information from one of SHN’s business partners. Use of Personally Identifiable Information SHN uses your personally identifiable information to improve and customize the advertising and content you see on the SHN Websites, to fulfill your requests for certain products and services, and, if you permit SHN or SHN’s affiliates, to contact you about special offers and new products. Your personally identifiable information may also be aggregated and used by SHN for market research, project planning, troubleshooting problems, detecting and protecting against error, fraud or other criminal activity, to enforce SHN’s Terms of Use, for other internal purposes, and/or as otherwise described to you at the time of collection. SHN will obtain your consent for any use of your personally identifiable information beyond the original uses for which you provided your consent.
You agree that SHN may use personal information about you to improve SHN’s marketing and promotional efforts, analyze site usage, improve SHN’s content and product offerings, customize the SHN Websites content, layout, and services, and as otherwise set forth in this Privacy Policy. You also agree that SHN may use your personal information to contact you and deliver information to you that, in some cases, is specifically targeted to you, such as targeted banner advertisements, administrative notices, product offerings, and communications relevant to your use of SHN Websites. By accepting the Terms of Use and this Privacy Policy, you expressly agree to receive this information. If you do not wish to receive this information, SHN encourages you opt out of the receipt of certain communications, as set forth below.
Disclosure of Personally Identifiable Information SHN does currently share, loan, rent or sell your personally identifiable information unless disclosed upon submitting a form, registering for a contest/event, or request for information. This is fully disclosed to you prior to submitting any information to our service. However, the following describes some of the ways that your personally identifiable information may be disclosed in the normal scope of business to provide SHN services:
Advertisers. SHN may aggregate personally identifiable information and disclose such information in a non-personally identifiable manner to advertisers and other third parties for their marketing and promotional purposes. However, in these situations, SHN does not disclose to these entities any information that could be used to identify you personally. Certain information, such as your name, email address, password, credit card number, and bank account number, are not disclosed to these third parties in a personally identifiable manner without your explicit consent. External Service Providers. There are a number of separate services offered by third parties, including, without limitation, SHN affiliates, that SHN refers to as external service providers that may be complementary to your use of SHN Websites (e.g. senior housing lead providers, realtors, mortgage brokers, lenders, financial institutions, credit card issuers, payment processors, information aggregators). By using SHN you choose to disclose information to the external service providers, and/or grant them permission to collect information about you, then their use of your information is governed by their privacy policy. SHN does not disclose your personally identifiable information to external service providers unless you provide your explicit consent. With your consent, SHN may provide some of your personal information to the external service provider offering such services, for your convenience. To prevent SHN’s disclosure of your personally identifiable information to an external service provider, you can decline such consent or simply not use their services. You should evaluate the practices of external service providers before deciding to use their services. Internal Service Providers. SHN may use third parties that SHN refers to as internal service providers to facilitate or outsource one or more aspects of SHN’s business, product and/or service operations that SHN provides to you (e.g., technology, job boards, forums, newsletters/alerts, analytical tools, advertising campaign management). SHN may provide some of your personal information directly to these internal service providers. These internal service providers are subject to confidentiality agreements with SHN or other legal restrictions that prohibit their use of the information SHN provides them for any other purpose except to facilitate the specific outsourced SHN related operation, unless you have explicitly agreed or given your prior permission to them for additional uses. In some instances, the internal service provider may collect information directly from you. In these cases, you will be notified of the involvement of the internal service provider, and all additional information you provide them and their additional uses will be strictly at your discretion. If you provide additional information to an internal service provider directly, then their use of your personally identifiable information is governed by their applicable privacy policy. Notwithstanding the foregoing, SHN reserves the right and you authorize SHN to share or disclose your personally identifiable information when SHN determines, in its sole discretion, that the disclosure of your personally identifiable information is necessary to identify, contact, or bring legal action against you if:
You are or may be violating this Privacy Policy or SHN’s Terms of Use; You are interfering with another’s rights or property, including, without limitation, SHN’s rights or property; You are violating any applicable law, rule or regulation; It is necessary or required by any applicable law, rule or regulation; and/or It is requested by authorized federal, state or other regulatory authorities in the event of any act of terrorism or instance of local, regional or national emergency. Personally identifiable information and other personal information collected from you may also be transferred to a third party as a result of a sale, acquisition, merger, reorganization, other transfer or bankruptcy (a “Transfer”) involving SHN. SHN specifically reserves the right to transfer personally identifiable information collected from SHN Websites, and any of its databases, together with any personally identifiable information contained therein, to a third party in connection with a Transfer, and nothing in this Privacy Policy is intended to interfere with the ability of SHN to transfer all or part of its business and/or assets (including SHN Websites) to an affiliate or independent third party at any time, for any purpose, without any limitation whatsoever.
SHN may be forced to disclose personal information to the government or third parties under certain circumstances or third parties may unlawfully intercept or access transmissions or private communications. Therefore, although SHN uses industry standard practices to protect your privacy, SHN does not promise, and you should not expect, that your personally identifiable information or private communications will always remain private.
Changes to Personally Identifiable Information and Use Preferences You may, at any time, request a copy of SHN’s record of your personally identifiable information, change your personally identifiable information or use preferences, or opt-out of SHN’s use of your personally identifiable information by contacting SHN via any of the methods set forth below:

Newsletters and CAN-SPAM Act Compliance The SHN Websites are fully compliant with the Controlling the Assault of Non-Solicited Pornography and Marketing Act of 2003 (“CAN-SPAM Act”). SHN sends only verified, double-opt-in e-mail newsletters, specifically requested by SHN subscribers. Subscriptions to SHN newsletters are verified by sending an e-mail confirmation to your e-mail address, which requires a positive response before an e-mail address is added to SHN’s list.
Cookie Technology “Cookies” are alphanumeric identifiers in the form of text files that are inserted and stored by your web browser on your computer’s hard drive. SHN may set and access cookies on your computer to track and store preferential information about you. SHN gathers anonymous information about its users through cookie technology on an aggregate level only. Such aggregated information is used solely within SHN’s internal organization, including its internal service providers, and is not shared with other third parties.
Web Beacons “Web beacons”, also called single-pixels (1×1) or clear GIFs, are electronic images that allow a website to access cookies and help track marketing campaigns and general usage patterns of visitors to those websites. Web beacons can recognize certain types of information, such as cookie numbers, time and date of a page view and a description of the page where the Web beacon is placed. No personally identifiable information about you is shared with third parties (other than internal service providers) through the use of web beacons.
Internal use of web beacons. SHN may use web beacons internally to count users and recognize users through cookies. Access to cookies helps SHN personalize your experience when you visit SHN Websites. Email. SHN may include web beacons in HTML-formatted email messages that SHN, its affiliates or agents send. Including web beacons in email messages helps SHN determine the effectiveness of such emails. External use of web beacons. SHN may also use web beacons externally. For example, SHN may report aggregate information about SHN website users, such as demographic and usage information, to its partners and other third parties. SHN may also include other company’s web beacons within SHN Websites. Security Personally identifiable information you submit to SHN is password-protected for your privacy and security. In certain areas SHN uses industry-standard SSL-encryption to protect data transmissions. In the unlikely event that an unauthorized third party compromises SHN security measures, SHN will not be responsible for any damages directly or indirectly caused by an unauthorized third party’s ability to view, use or disseminate such information.
Links to Other Web sites SHN Websites may include links to other third party Web sites. Such links are not an endorsement by SHN of those Web sites and/or the products or services offered at such Web sites. Third party Web sites may have different privacy policies and SHN is not responsible for the practices of those third party Web sites. If you click on a link to a third party Web site, SHN encourages you to check the privacy policy of that Web site, as it may differ substantially from that of this Privacy Policy.
Access and Use of SHN Websites SHN Websites are intended to be accessed and used only by adults and are not directed to children under the age of 18. SHN does not knowingly permit registration or submission of personally identifiable information by anyone under the age of 18.
Data Retention We retain your information for as long as necessary to permit us to use it for the purposes that we have communicated to you and comply with applicable law or regulations.
Transfer to Us or Other Countries Your information may be stored and processed in the United States or any other country where SHN has facilities, and by subscribing to and/or using our publications, you consent to the transfer of information outside of your country.

HeySummit is not responsible for any part of the above Additional Statements and is only responsible for the Core Privacy Statements set out hereunder:
The following Core Privacy Statements (the "Privacy Statements"), together with the Core Terms of Service and any other documents referred to herein set out we will use the data you provide us at www.HeySummit.com and/or www.app.HeySummit.com (the "Platform") and what Insight activities are ongoing there too.
Please read these Privacy Statements carefully and ensure that you understand them. You will be able to change your Privacy Preferences at any time throughout your time using the Platform and thereafter.
HeySummit’s purpose in establishing this Privacy Statement is to give you information about how HeySummit collects and processes your personal data through your use of the HeySummit Services, including any data you may provide through the HeySummit platform. If you do not agree with the terms, do not access or use the HeySummit Services, websites or any other aspect of HeySummit’s business.
This Privacy Statement applies to all users of HeySummits Platform and associated technology. It is important that you read this Privacy Statement together with any other Privacy Statement or fair processing policy we may provide on specific occasions when we are collecting, or processing, personal data about You, so that you are fully aware of how and why we are using your data. This Privacy Statement supplements other notices and privacy policies and is not intended to override them.
Data protection law in certain jurisdictions differentiates between the “controller” and “processor” of information. HeySummit and Event hosts are independent controllers of certain types of your personal data, such as your registration data (like name and email) and attendance data (like Event name, date and time of Event, and Event sessions attended). Event hosts are the controller, and HeySummit is the processor of Event data, such as information and materials submitted to, or during an Event.
We keep our Privacy Statement under regular review and it may be updated periodically. Laws, regulations, and industry standards evolve, which may make those changes necessary, or we may make changes to our services or business. We will notify you by posting an updated, date-stamped version of this Privacy Statement on our website. If we make changes that materially alter your privacy rights, we will provide notice to you in accordance with applicable law. Notice may be by posting a notice on our website, by email to you at the email address that you most recently provided to us, or by other means, consistent with applicable law. Accordingly, please keep your account information, including email address, updated.
The HeySummit Services include links to third-party websites and applications as well as to partner providers of multiple different types of services associated with a particular Event.
Clicking on links to third party websites, content or applications may allow those third parties to collect or share data about you. We do not control those third-party websites or content and are not responsible for their privacy statements or the way in which they collect or use your data.
Where you access or use third party services provided by an Event organiser, advertiser, sponsor or any other party who participates in an Event, we encourage you to request details of and read the Privacy Statement of that party. We do not control those third parties and are not responsible for their privacy statements or the way in which they collect or use your data.
Personal data, or personal information, means any information about an individual from which that person can be identified. It does not include data where the identifying information has been removed (anonymous data).

This information may be used by HeySummit and others to, among other things, analyse and track data, determine the popularity of certain content, deliver advertising and content targeted to your interests on the HeySummit Services and other websites and better understand your online activity.
Change of purpose
We will only use your personal data for the purposes for which we collected it, unless we reasonably consider that we need to use it for another reason and that reason is compatible with the original purpose. If you wish to get an explanation as to how the processing for the new purpose is compatible with the original purpose, please contact us. If we need to use your personal data for an unrelated purpose, we will notify you and we will explain the legal basis which allows us to do so.
Please note that we may process your personal data without your knowledge or consent, in compliance with the above rules, where this is required or permitted by law.
We may share your personal data with the parties set out below for the purposes set out in the table “Purposes for which we will use your personal data” above.
Where third parties provide Events or support the provision of Services made available to you, these third parties may receive certain personal data about you. Whilst we are not in control of these third parties, we require all third parties to respect the security of your personal data and to treat it in accordance with the law.
To help constantly improve and tailor the service we provide to you, we may use aggregated information so that we can administer and improve our services, analyze trends, gather broad demographic information and detect suspicious or fraudulent transactions and most importantly monitor and improve our operations on a day to day basis. In carrying out this activity, we may pass some information to third parties in aggregate and anonymized format.

Except as otherwise expressly included in this Privacy Statement, this document addresses only the use and disclosure of information we collect from you.

We encourage you to ask questions before you disclose your personal information to others.
We may transfer your personal data outside your country of residence, including the European Economic Area (EEA), in our performance of services.
Whenever we transfer personal data out of the EEA, we ensure an appropriate degree of protection is afforded to it by ensuring at least one of the following safeguards is implemented:
Please contact us if you want further information on the specific mechanism used by us when transferring your personal data out of the EEA.
We have put in place commercially reasonable security measures to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used or accessed in an unauthorised way, altered or disclosed. In addition, we limit access to your personal data to those employees, agents, contractors and other third parties who have a business need to know. They will only process your personal data on our instructions and they are subject to a duty of confidentiality. We have put in place procedures to deal with any suspected personal data breach and will notify you and any applicable regulator of a breach where we are legally required to do so. That said, no method of electronic transmission or storage is 100% secure and cannot guarantee absolute data security.
How long will you use my personal data for?
We will only retain your personal data for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, regulatory, tax, accounting or reporting requirements. We may retain your personal data for a longer period in the event of a complaint, if we reasonably believe there is a prospect of litigation in respect to our relationship with you, or as required or permitted by applicable law.
To determine the appropriate retention period for personal data, we consider the amount, nature and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure of your personal data, the purposes for which we process your personal data and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal, regulatory, tax, accounting or other requirements.

If you wish to exercise any of the rights set out above, please contact us.
No fee usually required
You will not have to pay a fee to access your personal data (or to exercise any of the other rights). However, we may charge a reasonable fee if your request is clearly unfounded, repetitive, or excessive. Alternatively, we could refuse to comply with your request in these circumstances.
Time limit to respond
We try to respond to all legitimate requests within one month or within the timeline provided by applicable law. Occasionally it could take us longer than a month if your request is particularly complex or you have made a number of requests. In this case, we will notify you and keep you updated.
If you have any questions about this Privacy Statement or our privacy practices, including any requests to exercise your legal rights, please contact us as follows:
You have the right to make a complaint at any time to the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO), the UK supervisory authority for data protection issues (www.ico.org.uk). You may also direct your complaint or concern to your applicable data protection authority. We would, however, appreciate the chance to address your concerns before you approach the ICO or another data protection authority.
Legitimate Interest means the interest of our business in conducting and managing our business to enable us to give you the best service/product and the best and most secure experience. We make sure we consider and balance any potential impact on you (both positive and negative) and your rights before we process your personal data for our legitimate interests. We do not use your personal data for activities where our interests are overridden by the impact on you (unless we have your consent or are otherwise required or permitted to by law). You can obtain further information about how we assess our legitimate interests against any potential impact on you in respect of specific activities by contacting us.
Performance of Contract means processing your data where it is necessary for the performance of a contract to which you are a party or to take steps at your request before entering into such a contract. In respect to HeySummit, that is the performance of our agreement with you to make the HeySummit Services available.

Comply with a legal obligation means processing your personal data where it is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation that we are subject to.
