- Purpose, categories of data and grounds for processing
This briefing note refers to your status as a participant in web conferences (webinar) organized by the Company on various present-day topics in the life of an organization’s society.
Trend Consult processes during these online events, as an organizer, the personal data that you provide directly when you sign up, such as name, first name, email address, company you work for and phone number. The aim pursued by the Company is the organization and conduct of web conferences, based on the need to execute a contractual obligation (your voluntary participation in these conferences represents a contract between the Company and you).
- Recipients of personal data
To achieve the above mentioned purpose, Trend Consult uses the services of contract partners, i.e. certain online platforms (Facebook, www.zoom.us). Some of them are processors (empowerd by the operator), such as companies that manage www.zoom.us platforms.
The www.zoom.us is managed by Zoom Video Communication, Inc., a company based in the United States of America that acts as the authorized person and with the help of which teleconference services are organized. Its privacy policy can be found here.

Personal data that we disclose to our processors or that they obtain directly from you on behalf of the Company is limited to the minimum personal information that is necessary for the provision of those services and we require them not to use the personal data for any other purpose. We make every effort to ensure that all entities we work with store your personal data safely and securely.
Some of the Company’s partners are third parties that are not responsible for processing the data, but have access to it in the performance of their tasks or in their interactions with the Company, such as companies providing technical maintenance or financial auditors. The personal data indicated above may be made available or transmitted to third parties in the following situations: (i) public authorities, auditors or institutions with competence in carrying out inspections and controls on the company’s business and assets, which require the Company to provide information, by virtue of its legal obligations; (ii) to comply with a legal requirement or to protect the rights and assets of our Company, such as courts.

If the Company determines that it has a legitimate interest or a legal obligation to continue to process your personal data for other purposes, you will be duly informed of this.
Once the processing period indicated above expires and the Company no longer has legal or legitimate reasons to process your personal data, the data will be deleted in accordance with its procedures, which may involve archiving, anonymizing or destroying it.
