2. Registration Data & Data Sharing
We collect your name, email, affiliation, dietary preferences, and passport details to manage your participation and logistics.
- Data Transfer: As the Conference Secretariat, we collect this information on behalf of HelpAge International (the "Host"). Upon completion of the event, your registration data will be securely transferred to the Host for official record-keeping and reporting.

3. Cookies & LinkedIn Tracking
We use the LinkedIn Insight Tag to track the effectiveness of our advertising.
- How it works: This tag places a cookie in your browser to collect metadata (such as IP address and page views). This allows us to see how visitors interact with our site after seeing a LinkedIn ad.
- Privacy: LinkedIn provides us with aggregated reports; we do not see your individual personal identity through this tool. You can manage your preferences via your LinkedIn account settings.
4. Informational External Links
For your convenience, our website provides links to third-party sites (e.g., official visa information or conference venue websites). We do not control these sites and are not responsible for their privacy practices. We recommend reviewing their policies when you visit them.
