Privacy Policy

Personal Information

Under no circumstances we sell, rent or distribute your personal information (including your email address, name, or anything else that you entered in your profile) to third-parties entities. Only our system administrators and our support team will have access to your data. You can amend and remove any information at any page, from your profile page.

We have striven to make sure that we ask as little personal information as possible throughout the website, both for speakers and for regular partecipants.

Speakers are asked to submit additional personal information, part of which will become public (eg: full bio). The talk submission form explains what data will be published and what data will be kept private, and each speaker can preview his/her public page before it is made public, and can amend its contents at any time.

Regular participants can optionally decide to opt-in to publish their profile page to other EuroPython participants, to help connecting during the event.

SPAM-Free Warranty

We will not sell or rent your email to other entities. We respect your choices.

If you subscribe to our newsletter or mailing-list, your email will be used only to deliver the list, and will not otherwise be used or shared. You can unsubscribe at any time by following the link at the bottom of each e-mail.

If you decide to opt-in to receive jobs offerings from our sponsors that are looking for hires, no personal information (including name and email) will be shared with those sponsors, and all e-mails will go through our systems to protect your privacy. You can opt-out at any time from your profile page.

Third-party services

We rely on a few third-party services to help us running the website. We might share some information on our visitors with them, as part of their service. They have been carefully selected because we believe that they are well-behaved privacy-wise:

• Google Analytics (privacy policy). They track visitors through IP and cookies, and show us nice graphs. You can opt-out from this service through a browser extension.
• Olark (terms of service). It's the real-time chat on the bottom-right corner. Any text written in the chat flows through their servers (using TLS encryption). We do not record chat transcripts. You can disable it by blocking scripts from olark.com.
• Janrain (privacy policy). It's the social web login service. They get to know who logins to our website and with which web site/service. They don't get to know any passwords (nor we do). You can avoid using it and go with the standard login form (in this case, we will store your hashed password, using SHA1+salt).

Removing your information

If you want to wipe your account and all the information, you need to write us an e-mail requesting so.

Our staff will erase your data from all files, database records and backups. You will be informed at the end of the process. Information cannot be restored afterwards.

The only exception to data wiping is invoices: if you have bought something on our website, we are legally required to preserve the invoices for 5 years after the emission, and we will do so.
