1.2 INFORMATION YOU PROVIDE.

We may collect information that identifies you personally (“personally identifiable information”) that you provide as you access and use the Site and other information that may not identify you personally (“aggregated information”).   For purposes of this Policy, “personally identifiable information” means any (i) information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person or (ii) information that identifies, relates to, describes, is capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with a particular consumer or household (for California residents only).

We may also collect personally identifiable information from you if you choose to submit information on our Careers page or join our SMS service.  We may require certain location information such as ZIP Code in order to provide information that you request, such as venues close to you.

Please be aware that when you provide information to Fathom through a third-party site or platform (for example, via social networks or mailing list service providers) the information which you provide may be separately collected by such third-party. Fathom does not control third-party sites or platforms and this Policy does not apply to them.

1.4  ENHANCEMENT OF PERSONAL INFORMATION. 

We may combine and enhance our user database information with third party data and information to better target our advertising and provide pertinent event offers in which we think our users would be interested.  Certain summary demographics are also used in our research product offerings.  Individual personally identifiable information is never used in our research product offering and is never tied back to an individual user or resold for any purposes.

To learn more about this behavioral advertising practice or to opt-out of this type of advertising, you can visit the Network Advertising Initiative, a coalition of online advertising networks that provides an opportunity for consumers to opt-out of targeted advertising by member companies.  It should be noted that opting out does not mean you will not see advertisements online, but these advertisements will not be targeted based on your online user interest profile.

7. COOKIES AND PIXELS.

“Cookies” are commonly used pieces of information in the form of small files that are placed on an individual’s computer hard drive to enable the individual to more easily communicate and interact with the Site.  We may use cookies for various purposes, for example to save user preferences, customize content of the Site for individual users, to ensure that users are not repeatedly sent the same banner ads, to record session information, such as items that users add to their shopping cart, to alert users to new areas that might be of interest upon return to the Site, and to save certain information about users of the Site and others who visit the Site, in order to facilitate and enhance interaction with the Site.  Fathom does not use cookies to retrieve information from a computer that is unrelated to Fathom or the Site.

We place pixels on our exhibitor sites and third-party ticketing sites to determine what events are ultimately purchased by visitors to our Sites so that we can better target our advertising and communications.

We may use third parties, such as an outside advertisement serving company to display advertisements on the Site.  We may also use a third-party provider to analyze data and patterns regarding usage of the Site and such third-party provider may use cookies, web beacons, tracking pixels, tracking agents or any other visitor identification technology to collect such information. These third parties may place and collect cookies when you visit the Site.  These third parties may collect information about a consumer’s online activities over time and across different websites when he or she uses our website.  We do not have access to information that would confirm the use of cookies by the third party.

13. INTERNATIONAL USERS.

If you are located outside of the United States, please note that the Site is hosted on computer servers located in the United States.  Therefore, your information may be processed and stored in the United States. As a result, United Sates federal and state governments, courts or law enforcement or regulatory agencies may be able to obtain access to your information through applicable United States laws.  Your use of a Site or your submission of any personally identifiable information to us will constitute your consent to the transfer of your personally identifiable information outside of your home country, including the United States, which may have very different date protection and privacy rules and regulations than in your home country.

14. YOUR EU GDPR AND UK GDPR RIGHTS.

This section applies to individuals based in the European Economic Area (“EEA”) and the United Kingdom.  In this section, we have summarized the rights that you have under data protection law. Some of the rights are complex, and not all of the details have been included in our summaries. Accordingly, you should read the relevant laws and guidance from the regulatory authorities for a full explanation of these rights. 

Your principal rights under data protection law are:

You have the right to 1) confirmation as to whether we process your personally identifiable information and, where we do, 2) access to the personally identifiable information, together with certain additional information. That additional information includes details of the purposes of the processing, the categories of personally identifiable information concerned and the recipients of the personally identifiable information. Providing the rights and freedoms of others are not affected, we will supply to you a copy of your personally identifiable information at no charge.

You have the right to have any inaccurate personally identifiable information about you rectified and, taking into account the purposes of the processing, to have any incomplete personally identifiable information about you completed.

In some circumstances you have the right to the erasure of your personally identifiable information without undue delay. Those circumstances include: the personally identifiable information is no longer necessary in relation to the purposes for which they were collected or otherwise processed; you withdraw consent to consent-based processing; you object to the processing under certain rules of applicable data protection law; the processing is for direct marketing purposes; and the personally identifiable information have been unlawfully processed. However, there are exclusions of the right to erasure. The general exclusions include where processing is necessary: for exercising the right of freedom of expression and information; for compliance with a legal obligation; or for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims.

In some circumstances you have the right to restrict the processing of your personally identifiable information. Those circumstances are: you contest the accuracy of the personally identifiable information; processing is unlawful but you oppose erasure; we no longer need the personally identifiable information for the purposes of our processing, but you require personally identifiable information for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims; and you have objected to processing, pending the verification of that objection. Where processing has been restricted on this basis, we may continue to store your personally identifiable information. However, we will only otherwise process it: with your consent; for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims; for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person; or for reasons of important public interest.

You have the right to object to our processing of your personally identifiable information on grounds relating to your particular situation, but only to the extent that the legal basis for the processing is that the processing is necessary for: the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of any official authority vested in us; or the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by us or by a third party. If you make such an objection, we will cease to process the personally identifiable information unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing is for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims.

You have the right to object to our processing of your personally identifiable information for direct marketing purposes (including profiling for direct marketing purposes). If you make such an objection, we will cease to process your personally identifiable information for this purpose.

You have the right to object to our processing of your personally identifiable information for statistical purposes on grounds relating to your particular situation, unless the processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out for reasons of public interest.

If the processing is carried out by automated means, you have the right to receive your personally identifiable information from us in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format. However, this right does not apply where it would adversely affect the rights and freedoms of others.

The legal basis for our processing of your personally identifiable information is:

If you consider that our processing of your personally identifiable information infringes data protection laws, you have a legal right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority responsible for data protection. You may do so in the EU or UK member state of your habitual residence, your place of work or the place of the alleged infringement.

To the extent that the legal basis for our processing of your personally identifiable information is consent, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time. Withdrawal will not affect the lawfulness of processing before the withdrawal.

You may exercise any of your rights in relation to your personally identifiable information by written notice to us at the address below.  Fathom will respond to all requests to access, correct or delete personally identifiable information within (30) days.

15. NOTIFICATION OF CHANGES.

If we decide to change this Policy, we will post material changes on the Site or take other steps so our users are aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and if we disclose it.  Unless we seek and receive your consent, we will use information in accordance with the Policy under which the information was last collected. Users may prevent their information from being used for purposes other than those for which it was originally collected by emailing us at [email protected].

16. SECURITY.

We will use reasonable security measures on the Site to protect the loss, misuse and alteration of the information under our control.  While there is no such thing as “perfect security” on the Internet, we will take all reasonable steps to ensure the safety of your personally identifiable information.  For example, our policy is that only those individuals who need your personally identifiable information to perform a specific job are granted access to that personally identifiable information.  Likewise, all employees and contractors are kept up-to-date on our security and privacy practices.  Finally, the servers that we store personally identifiable information on are kept in a secure environment.  While we employ the above steps, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to Fathom and you do so at your own risk.

17. DO NOT TRACK NOTICE.

While Fathom attempts to honor do not track (“DNT”) instructions we receive from a user’s browser, we cannot guarantee that Fathom’s technology will always respond to such signals, in part, because of the lack of common industry standard for DNT technology. We continue to monitor developments in DNT technology and stay apprised of DNT industry standards as they evolve.

18. CONTACT INFORMATION.

All inquiries concerning this statement and the Site in general may be sent to [email protected].
