Updated on June 29th, 2020
The Event App by Procialize Inc provides Services through The Event App by Procialize.com web pages and The Event App (John Galt Solutions Private Limited) apps to you subject to this Privacy Policy, its Terms of Use, and its other policies. The Event App by Procialize may change this Privacy Policy at any time. By continuing to access or use The Event App by Procialize Services, you accept any changes or revisions to this Privacy Policy.
IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THIS POLICY, DO NOT USE
The Event App by Procialize
1. Information Available in The Event App (John Galt Solutions Private Limited) Services
The Event App by Procialize aggregates publicly available information from company web pages, university web pages, news pages, public social network profiles, publication databases, patent databases, and other public sources (“Public Information”). This Public Information is available to public directly from those sources (even without The Event App by Procialize). The Event App by Procialize does not verify and cannot guarantee the accuracy of this Public Information. For certain social network websites, The Event App by Procialize will only get and show information if users provided corresponding login credentials. It is a user’s responsibility to validate and revise his own profile information in The Event App by Procialize Apps (including The Event App by Procialize Android App, The Event App by Procialize IOS App and The Event App by Procialize Web App).
2. Opt in/out Policy for the Attendee List on the The Event App by Procialize Apps
The Event App by Procialize supports three different policies on whether an attendee is listed in the event attendee list on The Event App by Procialize Apps. Event organizers can decide which policy to apply to their events in The Event App by Procialize Apps and it is the event organizers’ responsibility to make their attendees (users) be aware of the policy.
Please note that regardless of opt in/out policy, attendees’ contact information (e.g. emails, phone numbers) is not disclosed to other attendees unless users explicitly exchange their contact information via The Event App by Procialize Apps.
a) Under this policy, attendees (minus some VIPs selected by organizers) are listed in the attendee list on The Event App by Procialize Apps to help foster pre-event networking. If a user does not want his/her name and profile to be listed and viewed by other attendees, he/she needs to explicitly opt themselves out by changing the visibility setting on the Setting menu to be “invisible”.
b) Policy 2: Opt-in once sign-in. Under this policy, once an attendee signs in to The Event App by Procialize Apps, his/her name will be listed in the attendee list of this event to facilitate networking. They can still become invisible by changing the visibility setting on the Setting menu. If an attendee never signs in to The Event App by Procialize Apps, his/her name is not listed.
c) Policy 3: Explicit Opt-in. Under this policy, once an attendee signs in to The Event App by Procialize Apps, he/she is explicitly asked whether he/she wants to be listed in the attendee list for other attendees to network with him/her. Based on the answer, his/her initial visibility status will be set to “visible” or “invisible”, and he/she can still switch between the two by changing it on the Setting menu. If an attendee never signs in to The Event App by Procialize Apps, his/her name is not listed.

The Event App by Procialize is not responsible for any security issues caused by The Event App by Procialize Services.
8. EEA, SWITZERLAND AND UK ONLY
If you are attending or organizing an event in EU, you have to read the privacy policy specified in the following Sections. If you do not agree to this policy, do not use The Event App by Procialize.
8.1. The EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)
In May 2018, a new data privacy law known as the EU General Data Protection Regulation (or the “GDPR”) becomes effective. The GDPR requires The Event App by Procialize and event organizers to provide the The Event App by Procialize users with more information about the processing of their Personal Data.
8.2. Legal grounds for processing your Personal Data
The GDPR requires us to tell you about the legal ground we’re relying on to process any Personal Data about you. The legal grounds for us processing your Personal Data include:
-
you provided your consent;
-
it is necessary for our contractual relationship;
-
the processing is necessary for us to comply with our legal or regulatory obligations; and/or
-
the processing is in our legitimate interest to fulfill our service as an event organizing, content providing, and ticketing platform (for example, to provide you with customer service, and to protect the security and integrity of our systems, etc.).
8.3. The Event App by Procialize as a data processor
EU data protection law makes a distinction between organizations that process Personal Data for their own purposes (known as “data controllers”) and organizations that process Personal Data on behalf of other organizations (known as “data processors”). If you have a question or complaint about how your Personal Data is handled, these should always be directed to the relevant data controller since they are the ones with primary responsibility for your Personal Data.
Where The Event App by Procialize processes attendees’ Personal Data on behalf of Organizer as part of the Services, The Event App by Procialize is a Data Processor in performing such Processing and Organizer is the Data Controller. This includes circumstances where The Event App by Procialize obtains Personal Data as a result of the provision of its core event management services (for example, where The Event App by Procialize authenticates attendees’ identity based on the attendee list that organizers uploaded to The Event App by Procialize, facilitates the transmission of emails to attendees at the request of Organizers, or provides event reports and tools to enable Organizers to gain insights into their attendees and the effectiveness of using the The Event App by Procialize products).
The Event App by Procialize merely provides an event engagement and management “tool” for Organizers; The Event App by Procialize does not decide what Personal Data to request on registration forms, nor is it responsible for the continued accuracy of any Personal Data provided. Any questions that you may have relating to your Personal Data and your rights under data protection law should therefore be directed to the event organizers as the data controller, not to The Event App by Procialize.
We offer the ability for event organizers to email attendees directly through our platform. This functionality was built to send service-related emails specific to an organizer’s event attended by the recipient of such email. If an organizer wants to use this function, the organizer needs to secure his/her own compliant opt-in consents for the sending of such emails. The Event App by Procialize does not do this on the organizer’s behalf.
8.4. The Event App by Procialize as a data controller
In respect of some processing of Personal Data, The Event App by Procialize may act as a Data Controller, for example, where attendees have engaged with aspects of The Event App by Procialize’s application beyond those relating to organizers’ events, where event organizers and attendees directly provide the Personal Data about themselves as part of their account-creation process, or where Personal Data is processed by The Event App by Procialize to conduct research and analysis to enable The Event App by Procialize to improve its products and features (See Section 5(b) in the The Event App by Procialize Privacy Policy).
8.5. Data Access and Data Deletion
Data protection law provides you with rights in respect of Personal Data that we hold about you, including the right to request a copy of the Personal Data, request that we rectify, restrict or delete your Personal Data, and unsubscribe from marketing communications.
The Event App by Procialize app users can exercise these rights by editing their profiles on the The Event App by Procialize app, as well as deleting messages or photos posted by them. If you cannot find what you’re looking for, please contact us at support@theeventapp.in. Also, should one of your attendees ask you to have The Event App by Procialize remove that attendee’s Personal Data from the The Event App by Procialize system, please forward the request to us at support@theeventapp.in Our support team may reach out to the user directly to confirm the request. Please note that requests to exercise data protection rights will be handled by us on a case-by-case basis. There may be circumstances where we are not legally required to comply with your request because of the laws in your jurisdiction or because of exemptions provided for in data protection legislation.
8.6. Transfers of Personal Data
We may need to transfer your Personal Data outside of the country from which it was originally provided. This may be The Event App by Procialize or third parties (e.g. Amazon Cloud) that we work with who may be located in jurisdictions outside the EEA, Switzerland and the UK which have no data protection laws or laws that are less strict compared with those in Europe.
Whenever we transfer Personal Data outside of the EEA, Switzerland or the UK, we take legally required steps to make sure that appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your Personal Data. Such transfers will be made pursuant to the standard data protection clauses adopted by the Commission (EU Standard Contractual Clauses (Processors)).
In the event that EU authorities or courts determine that the transfer mechanism above is no longer an appropriate basis for transfers, The Event App by Procialize and customer shall promptly take all steps reasonably necessary to demonstrate adequate protection for the Personal Data, using another approved mechanism.
8.7. Data Incident Notifications
In cases where we are a data controller over data accessed in an unauthorized manner, we will notify the affected users directly. When we are solely a processor of data, we will notify event organizers we determine to be most likely in contact with that individual around the time of a data incident involving the unauthorized access of that individual’s Personal Data.
