Use of De-Identified or Aggregated Data and Use of Website Traffic Data

We may convert or combine some Personal Information of users into de-identified or aggregated data that does not disclose any of the Personal Information of any individual user. We may use and disclose any such de-identified or aggregated data without restriction.

Some of the information that we collect from cookies, web beacons or other embedded code relates to your personal use of the Website and allows us to store information about your preferences, speed up your searches and recognize you when you return to our Website. Other information that we collect from cookies, web beacons or other embedded code is not tied to your Personal Information and enables us to estimate our audience size and usage patterns. This traffic data may be shared with third parties without restriction. For example, we have engaged a third party service provider to evaluate and provide us with information about the use of our Website and viewing of our content by our users and to conduct “A/B testing” on our Website in order to improve the Website’s UI and UX, and we provide traffic data that does not include any of your Personal Information to this third party service provider for this purpose.

Tracking, Interest-Based Advertising and “Do Not Track”

Tracking involves the use of cookies, web beacons, or other embedded code or tracking technologies to collect, analyse and store information on a user’s behaviour over time on multiple sites, including information on the sites visited, products viewed, products purchased and other online interactions. Tracking information can be used to enable companies to make interest-based (behavioural) advertising available to users on multiple sites that they visit.

We permit certain third party advertisers and ad networks that we have engaged to use cookies, web beacons or other embedded code or tracking technologies to record the fact of your visit to our Website, including sites visited and products viewed (e.g., that you viewed the Digital Summit Kansas City events page). Such third party advertisers and ad networks may use this information to provide targeted advertisements to you regarding our own products and services on other sites that you may visit. We do not control these third parties’ tracking technologies or how they may be used to serve interest-based advertising. If you have any questions about an advertisement, you should contact the responsible advertiser directly. However, these third parties may provide you with ways to choose not to have your information collected or used in this way. You can opt out of receiving targeted ads from members of the Network Advertising Initiative by visiting http://optout.networkadvertising.org and you can opt out of receiving targeted ads from members of the Digital Advertising Alliance by visiting http://optout.aboutads.info. Please note that even if you choose to opt-out of targeted advertising, you will still see advertisements while you’re browsing online. However, the advertisements you see may be less relevant to you and your interests.

Our Website does not currently respond to any “Do Not Track” signals from your computer or mobile device, and if your computer or mobile device sends a “Do Not Track” signal to the Website, the Website will not treat you differently from users who do not send such signals.

Use of Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics to improve, personalize and measure the effectiveness of the content on the Website. You can obtain more information on how Google Analytics collects and processes data by visiting Google’s webpage “How Google uses data when you use our partners’ sites or apps,” available online at http://www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners/.

Social Media Widgets

You may be able to use social media widgets such as the Facebook Like button on the Website. These widgets will collect your IP address and identify which page you are visiting on the Website and make your preference information available to third parties. The information collected by such widgets is controlled by third-party privacy policies.

Sharing Information With Event Sponsors

If you attend a digital summit or internet summit such as Angel Investor School, then we may share your name, company, job title, email address, phone number and postal address with any event sponsor, and that event sponsor may use this information to contact you or to provide you with additional promotional or marketing information. We do not control how the event sponsor may use your information once you have agreed to share it with them.

Data Security

We have implemented measures designed to secure your Personal Information from accidental loss and from unauthorized access, use, alteration and disclosure. All information that you provide to us is stored on our servers behind firewalls, and certain Personal Information will be encrypted using secure socket layer (SSL) technology.

The safety and security of your information also depends on you. When we have given you (or when you have chosen) a password for access to certain parts of our Website, you are responsible for keeping that password confidential. We ask you not to share your password with anyone.

Unfortunately, the transmission of information over the Internet is not completely secure. Although we have implemented security measures that we think are adequate, we cannot guarantee the security of your Personal Information transmitted to our Website. Any transmission of Personal Information is at your own risk. We are not responsible for the circumvention of any privacy settings or security measures contained on the Website.

Data Retention

We will only retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. When deciding what the correct time is to keep the data for we look at its amount, nature and sensitivity, potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure, the processing purposes, if these can be achieved by other means and legal requirements.

For tax purposes the law requires us to keep basic information about our customers (including Contact, Identity, Financial and Transaction Data) for six years after they stop being customers. In some circumstances we may anonymise your personal data for research or statistical purposes in which case we may use this information indefinitely without further notice to you.

https://ico.org.uk/for-organisations/guide-to-the-general-data-protection-regulation-gdpr/individual-rights/

For any questions, please contact us at info@angelinvestorschool.com

Access to your data does not imply any fees. We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access your personal data. This is just as a security measure and to ensure that personal data is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it. We aim to respond to all legitimate requests within one month. Occasionally it may 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.
