Sponsored webinars and required information sharing

Some webinars are sponsored or co-marketed.

If a webinar is sponsored, agreeing to share your information with the sponsor is required to attend.

When you register for a sponsored webinar, we share the personal information we collect about you for that registration with the sponsor. This may include:

  • Name
  • Email address
  • Company
  • Job title
  • Role type
  • Webinar attendance
  • Questions submitted for speakers

Sponsors may use this information for their own marketing and business purposes, including contacting you directly. Their use of your information is governed by their own privacy policies. We are not responsible for how sponsors use information once it is shared with them.

If you do not agree to this sharing, you should not register for the sponsored webinar.

Webinars, recordings, and public content

We record webinars and live training sessions.

Recordings may include:

  • Audio and video
  • Screen sharing
  • Chat messages and questions

We use recordings in several ways:

  • Providing replays to members
  • Storing recordings in secure training libraries
  • Publishing content publicly, including on YouTube and social media
  • Creating marketing or educational clips

Webinars are professional, educational events. Do not submit confidential or sensitive information.

By participating, you understand that your participation and submitted questions may appear in recordings.

Cookies, ads, and tracking

We use cookies and similar tools to understand how people use our site and to promote our services.

This includes advertising and analytics tools such as Google Ads, Meta Pixel, and LinkedIn Insight Tag.

These tools help us:

  • Measure website and campaign performance
  • Understand engagement
  • Show relevant ads

Do Not Sell or Share (California residents)

Under California law, the use of these tools may be considered “sharing” of personal information for targeted advertising.

You may opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information by:

  • Clicking the “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” link in the website footer, or
  • Enabling a legally recognized opt-out signal, such as Global Privacy Control (GPC), where supported

We honor opt-out preference signals, including GPC, as required by applicable law.

You can also control cookies through your browser settings and, where available, through cookie preference tools.

Emails and marketing

You can unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time using the link in our emails.

Even if you unsubscribe from marketing, we may still send important service emails, such as:

  • Receipts
  • Registration confirmations
  • Account notices

How long we keep information

We keep personal information for as long as needed to:

  • Provide our services
  • Maintain accurate business records
  • Meet legal and tax requirements
  • Resolve disputes and enforce agreements

How long we keep information depends on what it is, why we collected it, and whether you still have an active account.

How we protect information

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect personal information.

No system is perfectly secure, but we take information protection seriously.

International users

We operate from the United States. If you are outside the U.S., your information may be processed and stored in the U.S. or other countries where we or our service providers operate.

Where required by law, we use appropriate safeguards for international data transfers.

For purposes of applicable data protection laws, How to Contract acts as the data controller or business with respect to the personal information described in this policy.
