Withdrawing consent or otherwise objecting to direct marketing

Wherever we rely on your consent, you will always be able to withdraw that consent, although we may have other legal grounds for processing your data for other purposes, such as those set out above. In some cases, we are able to send you direct marketing without your consent, where we rely on our legitimate interests.  You have an absolute right to opt-out of direct marketing, or profiling we carry out for direct marketing, at any time. You can do this by following the instructions in the marketing emails we send you, or by contacting us using the details set out below.

Who will we share this data with, where and when?

When you attend an Sport Global event, we will share some limited information about you with our sponsors and presenters. This is limited to:

  • When you attend the virtual booth of an exhibitor, we share your name, job title and company with the exhibitor, together with information about your interaction with their booth;
  • When you attend the booth of an exhibitor at a live event and allow your badge to be scanned,  or at a digital event you use the “virtual badge swipe” feature, we may share your email address in addition to your name, job title and company with that exhibitor. 
  • We share the names, job titles, and companies of the attendees with our major sponsors, as listed on the official website for the event or webinar. 

When attending a digital event, your basic registration information (name, job title, company and photo, if you have provided one), will also be made available to all other attendees of the digital event, to facilitate networking. When you attend an in person event, your basic registration information will be visible on your event badge.

Personal data may be shared with government authorities and/or law enforcement officials if required for the purposes above, if mandated by law or if required for the legal protection of our legitimate interests in compliance with applicable laws.

Personal data will also be shared with third party service providers, who will process it on behalf of Sport Global for the purposes identified above.  Such third parties include providers of website hosting, maintenance, call centre operation, online event registration, digital event or webinar platform, payment systems and identity checking. 

In the event that the business is sold or integrated with another business, your details will be disclosed to our advisers and any prospective purchaser’s adviser and will be passed to the new owners of the business. 

We may share some of your personal data with our sponsors, as described above, some of whom are located outside the United States.

In addition, you can object to the processing of your personal data in some circumstances (in particular, where we don’t have to process the data to meet a contractual or other legal requirement, or where we are using the data for direct marketing). 

These rights may be limited, for example if fulfilling your request would reveal personal data about another person, or if you ask us to delete information which we are required by law to keep or have compelling legitimate interests in keeping.
