Information Sharing and Third Parties

The Call List primarily functions as a Service provider to our clients, who engage us to provide a platform to host events on their behalf. Accordingly, when an audience member registers for or attends an event hosted on The Call List’s platform, we share this information with the client who engaged us to host the event. The event information we share with clients may include recordings of the event, which may encompass audience member audio and video information. This audio and video recording information shared with our clients may constitute “biometric information” under certain laws. You may choose not to provide us with your audio and video information. If you do not consent to our sharing of your audio or video information, do not provide it to us. Similarly, if we offer a contest, survey or a promotion on behalf of the client and you choose to participate, we will share your information with the client we partnered with to offer the contest, survey or promotion.

We may also share client and audience member information as follows:

  • With vendors, consultants and other service providers who need access to personal information to carry our Services on our behalf;
  • In response to a request from information if we believe disclosure is advisable or required, including to comply with any law, legal process, or requests by public authorities, law enforcement or third parties;
  • To investigate actions we believe are inconsistent with our agreements or policies, or to protect the rights, property and safety of The Call List, our clients and our audience members;
  • In connection with or during negotiations of any merger, sale, financing or acquisition of all or a portion of our business by another company; and
  • With your consent or at your direction

We also share aggregate and de-identified information that is not personally identifiable with our business partners and other third parties.

We do not sell personal data.

By nature of our service offerings, our website and events contain links to websites, products, and materials not offered, administered, run, or otherwise controlled by The Call List.

Data Retention

The Call List retains personal information only for as long as necessary to provide our Services. Most event data, including information automatically collected during the event, is aggregated immediately following the event. In the event that personal information is not aggregated, or if event information is recorded, we retain information only for as long as necessary following the event, generally no more than 60 days.

Information Security

We use commercially reasonable physical, technical, organizational, and administrative methods consistent with industry practice to protect your personal information from unauthorized access or disclosure. While we consider these policies and procedures to be adequate, there is still a risk that your personal information could be misappropriated. No method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is completely secure. Therefore, we cannot guarantee the absolute security of your personal information. If you have any questions about security on our site, you can send an email to us at the email address specified below.
