Privacy policy

Safeguarding your privacy is very important to us. The Continuous Innovation Network (CINet) is committed to compliance with the new European General Data Protection Regulation and fair and transparent use of data.

What is personal data?

Personal data is the information that identifies you, such as your name, address, email or postal address, job title and affiliation.

What is it used for?

CINet uses the personal data acquired for the sole purposes of its normal business operations.

Other than in instances of common use, such as displaying your name, affiliation and job title in our membership list, event delegate lists, and event programs, CINet will not make public or share any of your details.
