This section applies to individuals who provide their personal information to MarcumAsia in their capacity as representatives, employees, or agents of companies or organizations that sponsor, exhibit at, or partner with the Event (“Sponsor Personnel”).
MarcumAsia collects and uses business contact information of Sponsor Personnel for the following purposes:
• Administration of the sponsorship or exhibitor relationship, including contract management, invoicing, and logistics coordination
• Communication regarding sponsorship benefits, deliverables, booth arrangements, speaking opportunities, and Event logistics
• Provision of Event-related services (badge printing, Event website profile, access credentials)

MarcumAsia and its authorized representatives will take photographs and record video in public areas of the Event, including session rooms, the exhibit hall, networking areas, and common spaces. These materials may be used in MarcumAsia’s social media, marketing materials, educational products, and publications, and may be distributed by third parties authorized by MarcumAsia.
Your image and voice may be captured during the Event. If you identify yourself by name during a recorded session (e.g., when asking a question), that identification may be included in published materials.
If you do not wish to be photographed or recorded, please notify Event staff at the registration desk, and MarcumAsia will use commercially reasonable efforts to accommodate your request. However, given the nature of a public conference environment, MarcumAsia cannot guarantee that incidental capture will not occur in group or wide-angle recordings.
MarcumAsia will not provide personal information to third parties without obtaining the prior consent of the individual, except as required or permitted by applicable law — for example, where necessary to protect life, health, or property; where required by legal process; or where the recipient is acting as a service provider on MarcumAsia’s behalf. MarcumAsia engages third-party service providers to support the Event, including a cloud service provider (Network Solutions) that hosts the Event website through which registration, the agenda, speaker biographies, venue information, and the attendee roster are made available, as well as providers supporting MarcumAsia’s badge printing and event management systems. These service providers process personal information on MarcumAsia’s behalf and are subject to confidentiality and data protection obligations.
Having said that, by agreeing to this Notice (including at the time of Event registration), you consent to MarcumAsia providing personal information collected in connection with the Event to MarcumAsia group entities, including but not limited to MarcumAsia’s Japanese affiliate. You also consent to MarcumAsia providing certain personal information collected in connection with the Event regarding speakers and attendees to sponsors that are entitled to receive such information pursuant to their sponsorship arrangements with MarcumAsia.
In connection with the Event, personal information may be transferred to, or provided to MarcumAsia group entities, certain sponsors, or other third parties located in Japan and other countries.
For the transfers to sponsors located outside Japan that are entitled to receive such information pursuant to their sponsorship arrangements with MarcumAsia, such countries include the United States, and by agreeing to this Notice (including at the time of Event registration), you consent to such transfer, storage, and processing of your personal information. You can access more details on the personal data protection regimes in the relevant jurisdictions on the website of the Personal Information Protection Commission of Japan at: https://www.ppc.go.jp/enforcement/infoprovision/laws/ (available in Japanese). We understand that the recipients implement measures corresponding to all eight principles of the OECD Privacy Guidelines.
For other cross-border data transfers, MarcumAsia transfers personal information on the basis that the recipient has established a system that continuously implements measures conforming to the standards required under applicable Japanese law.
MarcumAsia takes the security of personal information seriously and implements reasonable and appropriate organizational, technical, and physical safeguards to protect personal information from unauthorized access, loss, destruction, alteration, or disclosure. These measures include, without limitation:
• Organizational measures: Designation of personnel responsible for the management of personal information; establishment of internal rules and procedures for the handling of personal information; periodic training of employees and staff involved in Event data processing.
• Technical measures: Access controls and authentication for systems containing personal information; encryption of personal information in transit.
• Physical measures: Physical access restrictions to areas and equipment where personal information is stored or processed; secure disposal of physical media containing personal information.
• Third-party oversight: Selection of service providers that maintain appropriate data protection standards; contractual requirements for third parties handling personal information on MarcumAsia’s behalf.
MarcumAsia regularly reviews and updates its security measures in light of technological developments, changes in the threat landscape, and applicable regulatory requirements.
