Security of Personal data

We use commercially reasonable technical, organizational, and administrative safeguards to protect information within our control against unauthorized or unlawful access, use, modification, destruction, processing or disclosure, and against accidental loss, destruction, or damage.  We believe that these measures are reasonably adapted to the nature of the information in our custody.

We limit access to our users’ personal data to only those employees and third parties who reasonably need access to it to perform the activities attached to their job responsibilities.

However, due to the realities of data security, no security system or storage system can be guaranteed to be 100% effective or secure.  Thus, we cannot guarantee that any information provided to us or collected by us will not be accessed, hacked, disclosed, altered, or destroyed by unauthorized parties.

Breach of Security

If you have reason to believe that your interaction with us is no longer secure (for example, if you feel that the security of any account you might have with us might have been compromised), or if you suspect someone else is using your account, please let us know immediately by contacting us as indicated in the “How to Contact Us” section.

Lost or Stolen Information.

You must promptly notify us if your credit, bank, other financial institution information, username, or password is lost, stolen, or used without permission.  In such an event, we will assist you in updating your account details.

  1. Rights of Individuals Located in the European Economic Area

The EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) grants individuals who are in the European Union and European Economic Area (EU/EEA) the following rights, with some limitations.  Users may contact us, at the address provided in the “How to Contact us” section below, to exercise any of those rights and we will respond with the requested action or information, or will let you know why that right does not apply to you.

Right Not to Provide Consent or to Withdraw Consent

We may seek to rely on your consent in order to process certain personal data.  Where we do so, you have the right not to provide your consent, and the right to withdraw your consent at any time.  If you withdraw your consent, this will not affect the lawfulness of the processing conducted based on consent before its withdrawal.

Right of Rectification

You have the right to require that we correct any inaccurate personal data concerning you and that we complete incomplete personal data.

  1. Rights of Users Located in California Residents

California requires operators of websites or similar services to make certain disclosures to users who reside in California regarding their rights, specifically:

Shine the Light

Under California law, a business that has an established business relationship with an individual, and has, within the immediately preceding calendar year, disclosed personal data that is primarily used for personal, family or household purposes to third party for the third party’s direct marketing purposes, must disclose to its California users, upon request, the identity of any such third party, along with the type of personal data disclosed.

You can contact us to as provided in the “How to Contact Us” section.  Please note that under California law, businesses are only required to respond to a user’s request once during any calendar year.

Do-Not-Track

Some browsers give individuals the ability to communicate that they wish not to be tracked while browsing on the Internet.  California law requires that we disclose to users how we treat do-not-track requests.  The Internet industry has not yet agreed on a definition of what “Do Not Track” means, how compliance with “Do Not Track” would be measured or evaluated, or a common approach to responding to a “Do Not Track” signal.  Due to the lack of guidance, we have not yet developed features that would recognize or respond to browser-initiated Do Not Track signals in response to California law.

In the meantime, there are technical means to prevent some of the tracking, if any.  See Section “Your Advertising Choices.”

POLICY

This Harassment Policy is meant to guide the actions of members, attendees, exhibitors, sponsors, vendors, and others that are representing CoreNet Global or participating in CoreNet Global events (collectively referred to as “Participants”).  It is meant to be applied during all CoreNet Global Summits, Chapter events, meetings, conferences, forums, and meeting-related events, including those sponsored by organizations other than CoreNet Global but held in conjunction with CoreNet Global events in which they participate (collectively referred to as “CoreNet Global Events”). 

The term “Harassment” as used in this Harassment Policy covers a wide range of behaviors of an offensive nature. It is commonly understood as behavior that disturbs, threatens or upsets the recipient, and it is characteristically repetitive. Sexual harassment refers to persistent and unwanted sexual advances (actions or spoken), directed at an individual. Harassment can include but is not limited to: comments that are lewd, lascivious, demeaning or derogatory, unwelcome discussion of sexual orientation or gender identity, sexual images in public spaces, deliberate intimidation, stalking, or following, inappropriate physical contact or unwelcome sexual attention, including any specific activity for which affirmative consent was not requested and given.

 

  1. Expected Behavior
    1. Participants are expected to at all times uphold the reputation of CoreNet Global and the dignity of membership therein while representing CoreNet Global or attending CoreNet Global Events.  As such, all members, and participants, attendees, invitees, and vendors at events and meetings shall be treated with respect and consideration.
    2. Participants shall be considerate, respectful, and collaborative, communicating openly with respect for others, and critiquing ideas rather than individuals. 
    3. At all times during meetings and events, the specific rules and policies of the meeting, event, venue, hotel, or CoreNet Global contracted facilities shall be respected in their entirety.
  1. Unacceptable Behavior
    1. CoreNet Global does not tolerate any form of harassment or discrimination by its Participants on the basis of, but not limited to: sex, sexual orientation, race, color, religion, national origin, age, disability, handicap, citizenship, marital status, veteran status or any other basis prohibited by law.  As such, CoreNet Global expects all Participants to not engage in any form of harassment of this aforementioned nature.      
    2. Harassment and discrimination are prohibited wherever and whenever representation of CoreNet Global is being performed or at any meeting a Participant is attending, whether at CoreNet Global offices, in another location during meeting or event or at a CoreNet Global-sponsored social event.
    3. Any unprofessional, or inappropriate, conduct whether or not it is unlawful harassment or discrimination is contrary to this Policy and is taken very seriously by CoreNet Global.
  1. Consequences
    1. Any individual requested to stop any unacceptable behavior is expected to comply immediately.
    2. At any CoreNet Global event or meeting, CoreNet Global may take any action deemed necessary and appropriate, including removal of a Participant, for any unacceptable behavior as described above. 
    3. Any unacceptable behavior may also be remedied by CoreNet Global in a manner reasonably believed to eliminate the possibility of the behavior happening again including, but not limited to, future curtailment of the violator’s rights to participate at events as well as suspension/termination of membership.
  1. Reporting:
    If someone makes you or anyone else feel unsafe or unwelcome, you are not required to, but you are encouraged to report potential incidents and event staff or event leadership, who will take seriously all concerns brought to them. Harassment reduces the value of our events for everyone.
