2. Gathering of Personally Identifying Information

Certain visitors to our website choose to interact with us in ways that require us to gather personally identifying information.

For example, visitors registering for event tickets, volunteering, participating in the event, submitting speaker applications, or contacting the organizing team may be asked to provide information such as their name, email address, and other relevant details.

We collect such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction. Visitors can always refuse to supply personally identifying information, with the understanding that it may prevent them from engaging in certain site-related activities.

All information collected on this website will be handled in accordance with applicable privacy and data protection laws, including the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023, where applicable, and other applicable Indian data protection requirements.

Some of these parties may be located outside your country. Where personal information is transferred to third parties or processed outside India, we will take reasonable measures to ensure that such processing is carried out in accordance with applicable laws.

We do not rent or sell personally identifying information.

4. Retention of Personal Information

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, meet legal or administrative requirements, resolve disputes, and maintain appropriate event and community records.

Contact information, such as mailing list subscriptions, may be retained until a user unsubscribes or requests deletion, subject to applicable legal or legitimate operational requirements.

Event attendee and participant data may be maintained for up to three years for purposes such as event administration, reporting, community growth analysis, and maintaining appropriate event records, after which non-essential personal data may be deleted or anonymized.
