These records may serve for the adequate public use within our marketing and promotional activities on our social networks or in selected public media. In accordance with the GDPR we shall ask for your consent where required before making and sharing, as applicable, such photos or records on our social networks or in selected public media. We will not take nor publish any photos or records displaying you in a degrading way.

We use pretix to provide badge printing services for those attending KotlinConf 2024. Your information will be shared with pretix for the purpose of printing on your name badge the contact information as provided during your registration for KotlinConf 2024 (such as your full name and company name). Pretix will only process your name for the purposes described above in compliance with applicable laws. A name badge is required to gain access to KotlinConf 2024.

Badge scanning

Furthermore, please note that during KotlinConf 2024 we use pretix to provide badge scanning services, also called lead retrieval or scanning, to certain exhibitors and/or sponsors. On the name badge there shall be a QR-code which holds certain personal data as provided by you during your registration for KotlinConf 2024 (such as your full name, contact details such as e-mail, job title and company name). Exhibitors and/or sponsors at KotlinConf 2024 may wish to scan your badge so they can contact you with more information. By allowing your badge to be scanned, you are consenting to have pretix provide the above-mentioned information to the exhibitor and/or sponsor for the purposes of further (marketing) communication and to contact you with more information post-event. As the scanning is based on your consent to the exhibitor and/or sponsor, if you do not wish to be contacted by the party in question, please communicate this directly to them at the event or thereafter.
