Personal Data We Process & How We Use It

In order for you to participate on the FNvirtual platform, FNTECH collects information about individuals, companies that present or attend events and associations the sponsor events.  This information, including: your first and last name, date of birth (for age verification purposes only), address, language preference, your email address, your profile picture (if you choose to upload it), user IDs and Password, social media accounts (if you choose to disclose), department, company affiliation (if applicable), meeting schedule, your biographical information (if you choose to disclose) and employee count (if applicable).  In addition, FNTECH collects information regarding your IP address to ensure your access to the nearest data center and to comply with privacy laws.

We collect this information in order to enroll you in the Services, allow you to participate in a conference, provide you with support, provide announcements related to software updates, upgrades and system enhancements, and provide you with sponsor event information.  It also permits interaction with event participants.

FNTECH also collects technical information thought it’s software or systems hosting the Services, including: Configuration Data, Meeting Metadata, Feature Usage Data, Performance Data, Support Data and Service Logs.  FNTECH uses this information to monitor performance of our data centers and networks, provide support, maintain the security of our infrastructure and Services, confirm compliance with our contractual and legal obligations, to optimize our Services and detect, investigate and stop fraudulent, and unauthorized or illegal activity.

FNTECH collects data through the use of cookies and pixels.  The information collected includes your IP address, browser type, internet service provider, your interaction with the various presenters and sponsor associations, your operating system, the date/time you visited our site.  (Please see our Cookie Policy below for more detail.)

If you are an FNTECH customer sponsoring an event, we collect the event title and its details, your name, your email address, company name and job title.  This allows us to communicate with you about the event.

Customer Content

Customer content is the “in-session” information you give us directly through your use of the Services, such as files, chat logs, and transcripts, and any other information you or the event sponsor may upload while using the Services. FNTECH uses customer content only in connection with providing the Services – we do not monitor, sell or use customer content for any other purposes.

We do not control the actions of anyone with whom you or any other Service user may choose to share information. Therefore, we cannot and do not guarantee that any customer content you or any user provides to the Services will not be viewed by unauthorized persons. Nor can FNTECH control the information a user may choose to share during a meeting. Although FNTECH account holders can set privacy options that limit access to certain areas of the Services, please be aware that no security measures are perfect or impenetrable and that we are not responsible for circumvention of any security measures contained on the Services. You should be cautious about the access you provide to others when using the Services, and the information you choose to share when using the Services.

FNTECH’s Product and Marketing Pages

FNTECH generally processes personal data in two different manners when using its platform. First, FNTECH processes personal data it obtains from the webpages interfaces that FNTECH uses to provide its Services, such as the landing page a user sees after clicking on a link to join a conference (FNTECH’s “Event Pages”). Event Pages also include webpages and links that are only accessible to a FNTECH account holder after they login to their FNTECH account. Event Pages serve only third-party cookies that are necessary for technical support and to deliver the service. There are no interest-based advertising cookies on Event Pages.

Second, FNTECH processes personal data obtained from its webpages that are accessible without logging in to a FNTECH account (FNTECH’s “Marketing Pages”). Marketing Pages, such as www.FNTECH.us, are designed to encourage sales of FNTECH Services. They tell you about our product, plans, and pricing, features, and other related information.
