Who Do We Collect Personal Information From
When you provide personal information to us (for example by filling in a form during a registration process on our website, or onsite), we will collect and store that information.
How We Use Your Personal Information
This personal information will be collected to enable us to contact and advise you of details of events which you have registered for, or of future events which we believe you might be interested in. We will also use the personal information to compile generalised statistics on the demographics of attendees at our shows or users of our websites (which does not identify you individually). Such generalised statistical information may be summarised in event attendance reports we provide to prospective exhibitors to demonstrate the demographic nature of visitors who attend our events, as well as being used to enable us to improve the quality of our events.
Promotional photos and video will be taken at the event and by purchasing a ticket and / or attending the event you give permission for your likeness to be used by Arada Promotions 2021 Limited for use in television, video, social media posts or advertising, web or printed promotional material. If you do not want your image used in any future promotional activity please locate an Arada Promotions staff member at the event and let them know.
We will not provide anyone with access to your information unless you provide express permission to do so, for example by completing the show prize registration and agreeing to the specific terms and conditions.
Where personal information is collected for any other purpose, this purpose will be advised to you at the time the information is collected.

Other than as noted above, we will only use or disclose personal information you have provided to us in order to fulfil a request made by you or otherwise where we are required or permitted by law to do so. Such situations include where we are required in court proceedings to do so.
