IMMH Event Privacy Notice
Applies to: Attendees of IMMH conferences and events
This Event Privacy Notice explains how IMMH collects, uses, shares, and protects personal data in connection with your attendance at our events — whether virtual or in-person — including conferences held outside the UK.
This notice is in addition to our general Website Privacy Policy (above), which applies to all website visitors and newsletter subscribers.
1. Who We Are
IMMH is operated by MindHealth360 Limited, a UK-based organisation focused on integrative mental health education. We are the data controller for any personal information you provide in connection with event participation.
For questions, email: [email protected]
2. What Personal Data We Collect
When you register for an IMMH event or access our event platform, we may collect:
- Contact details: name, email address, phone number, job title, organisation
- Registration info: ticket type, session selections, dietary/accessibility needs
- Billing info: billing address and payment status (payment is processed securely via third-party platforms)
- Platform activity: session attendance, networking interactions, messages, and surveys
- Marketing preferences: whether you opted in to receive future updates or sponsor contact
3. How We Use Your Data
We use your information to:
- Process your registration and payment
- Communicate event updates, reminders, and logistics
- Personalise your event experience (e.g. session choices, dietary or access support)
- Provide post-event materials, surveys, and recordings
- Share your contact details with speakers and partners (if you consent)
4. Legal Bases for Processing
We rely on the following legal bases under UK GDPR:
- Contract: to deliver the event and provide services related to your attendance
- Consent: for speaker and partner sharing
- Legitimate interests: for internal analytics, support, and improving event experiences
5. How We Share Your Data
We may share your personal data with:
- Event technology providers (e.g., registration systems, email platforms, mobile apps)
- Service vendors supporting the event (e.g., venues, caterers, accessibility providers)
- Exhibitors using lead-scanning technology at in-person events — but only if you choose to have your badge scanned, in which case your details will be provided directly to that exhibitor
- Speakers or partners — but only if you have given explicit consent
All third parties are required to process your data securely and only for agreed-upon purposes.
6. International Data Transfers
As our events may take place globally and we use international partners, your data may be transferred outside the UK, including to the United States.
We ensure adequate protections are in place, such as:
- Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) approved by the UK Information Commissioner
- Data Privacy Framework participation (if applicable)
- Data Processing Agreements with all partners
7. Your Rights
You have the right to:
- Access your personal data
- Correct inaccurate or incomplete data
- Request deletion of your data
- Withdraw consent for partner contact at any time
- Object to or restrict certain types of processing
- Request a copy of your data in a portable format (where applicable)
To exercise these rights, contact us at [email protected].
8. Partner Consent
You will be asked during registration or onboarding to indicate whether you agree to share your contact details with selected event speakers and partners.
This option is voluntary and requires opt-in consent. You can unsubscribe at any time.
At in-person events, please note that having your badge scanned by an exhibitor is also considered consent to share your contact details directly with that exhibitor. Once shared, the exhibitor becomes the data controller for your information.
9. Data Retention
- We retain your event participation data for up to 3 years unless you request earlier deletion.
- If you opt in to partner marketing, we retain your data until you withdraw consent.
10. Information Security
We implement security measures to protect your data, including:
- Encrypted communications
- Access control for event platforms and attendee data
- Secure storage and restricted administrator access
