Event Registration Forms
We use a plugin called “Gravity Forms” to power event registration forms on our site. Data that you input and submit is not transmitted to any 3rd parties – it is stored in the database of our (WordPress) website and a copy is transmitted to our secure email, which can only be accessed by authorized individuals of EUTurbines.
The information you submit will be used to process your registration, to fulfill our event organizational needs, and to communicate with you regarding the registered event. For live/in-person events, your data may be shared with additional organizational parties such as event venues, co-hosts, moderators and/or speakers for organizational purposes.
Except for forms where additional optional communication consent has been made available and additionally agreed to, the data submitted via these forms will not be used for any communication other than relating to the registered event. The data submitted to us via the event registration forms will be deleted from our website database and email servers no later than 30 days after the event has taken place. This deletion does not affect any other user data registered through this website (unless additionally requested by the User) such as our members-only login area.
