Privacy

Last updated: September 2026

The CVC | Open Innovation Summit respects the privacy of our participants, community members, partners, and website visitors. This policy explains what information we collect and how we use it.

1. Information We Collect

We may collect information you provide to us, including your name, title, organization, professional contact details, registration or application information, and communications with our team.

We may also collect limited technical information when you use our website, such as browser, device, IP address, cookies, and website usage data.

2. How We Use Information

We use information to:

- review and manage applications and registrations;
- organize Summits, working groups, research, and other activities;
- communicate with our community;
- improve our website and participant experience; and
- meet applicable legal and administrative requirements.

Where required, we process personal information based on consent, legitimate interests, contractual necessity, or legal obligations.

3. Participant Information

We may share limited professional information, such as your name, title, organization, and biography, with participants where appropriate for a Summit or working group.

We do not sell personal information. Partners, supporters, and sponsors do not automatically receive participant contact information for marketing or sales purposes.

4. Service Providers

We use trusted third-party providers to operate our website, registrations, communications, analytics, and other platform activities.

Registration may be handled through services such as Luma. Information submitted directly through third-party services may also be subject to their privacy policies.

5. International Data

Our platform operates across the United States, Europe, Asia, and other regions. Personal information may therefore be processed or stored outside your home country. Where required, we use appropriate safeguards for international data transfers.

6. Cookies

Our website may use cookies and similar technologies necessary to operate the site and understand how it is used. Where required by law, non-essential cookies will only be used with your consent.

7. Communications

If you subscribe to our communications, we may send updates about the platform, research, and upcoming activities. You can unsubscribe from marketing communications at any time.

8. Your Information and Rights

We retain personal information only as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described above.

Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, or obtain information about your personal data, or withdraw consent to certain processing.

We may update this policy as our platform or legal requirements evolve. The current version will always be published on this page.
