For event management purposes, we ask you to submit the following information when you sign up for one of our events on eventbrite.com: name, email address, professional affiliation (organisation and role). All details are submitted on a voluntary basis but are necessary for the successful running of our events. We ask for your email details to keep you informed about the event you registered for.
