  • When you participate in an event

When you attend an event organised or co-hosted by HTHC, we process personal data about you for the purpose of running the event, keeping in touch with you before, during and after the event, and for the purpose of  communicating about events. Events may be conferences, courses, webinars, networking events or meetings and may be with physical participation or online.

For the purpose of conducting an event, we process all participants’ data, including details on name, position, e-mail address, workplace and information about the event itself.

During our events, we may take photos s and make video recordings for our communication about the event, and these may be published, based on a case by case assessment, on www.healthtechhub.org, on social media channels and/or in publications. Online arrangements may be recorded. In case of a closed event, recordings will only be made available to a select group based on case by case assessment, while recordings from open/public events may be published on the Internet.

If the event is held outside HTHC, and/or in cooperation with other organizers, we share your data with the conference venue and the co-organisers. We may share your data with our technical suppliers and in connection with online events we also share your data with the technical partners in charge of the online meeting platform and storage of recordings.

KEEPING YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION AND KEEPING IT SECURE

We will keep your information only for as long as it is relevant and useful for the purpose for which it was originally collected.

The security of your personal information is greatly important to us. Sadly, no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure. We ensure you that we do everything reasonably possible and commercially acceptable to protect information about you against unauthorized access, use, alteration, or destruction, by monitoring our services for potential vulnerabilities and attacks.  However, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.

 

ASSESSING AND UPDATING YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

You can ask for a copy of the personal information we may hold about you, or for your data to be deleted via anett@healthtechhub.org.

 

TRANSFER OF PERSONAL DATA

As the internet is a global environment, collecting and processing personal information may involve the transmission of this data internationally, including outside of the European Union. Therefore, using our website and by communicating electronically with us you acknowledge and agree to your personal data being processed in this way.

 

SHARING PERSONAL INFORMATION WITH THIRD PARTIES

The data we gather is used in aggregated reports (meaning you cannot be identified personally from this information), only for use by Health Tech Hub Copenhagen and is shared only with our partners and collaborators.

We reserve the right to disclose your personal information to comply with applicable laws and government or regulatory bodies’ lawful requests for information. We may also have to release information because of a legal requirement on us or pursuant to a court order.

Your personal details may be shared with third-party organisations we have contracted to provide services to us, which include securing user-safety on our website and processing data – for example, to send you the emails you have signed up for, or managing customer relations. Health Tech Hub Copenhagen uses reputable third parties, who provide adequate safeguards to ensure your data is stored and handled securely.

Our digital services are connected with functions and systems of third parties in many ways, such as through the integration of plug-ins of social networks of third parties, in particular, Facebook, LinkedIn, Google, Xing or Twitter, or if you visit our content on third-party websites (e.g. Facebook Fanpages etc.). If you have a user account with these third parties, it may also be possible for these third parties to measure and evaluate your use of our digital services. In this case, further personal data, such as IP address, personal browser settings and other parameters can be transmitted to these third parties and stored there. Health Tech Hub Copenhagen has no control over the use of your personal data collected by third parties and assumes no responsibility or liability.

 

ANALYTIC SERVICES

Plausible Analytics

Our website uses Plausible Analytics to help us understand visitor trends and to collect and process certain analytics data. We use Plausible Analytics to track overall trends in the usage of our website. Plausible Analytics collects only aggregated information, which does not allow us to identify any visitor to our website.

We chose Plausible Analytics because it is a privacy-focused company and platform that eschews personally identifiable information in favour of anonymous aggregate data.
