- any other documentation provided by you (for example any of your information required to verify your identity or eligibility for an account with us or the exhibitor);
- your account user credentials to set up and maintain your account with us;
- images and/or recordings shared by you with the exhibitors.
Please note that if we collect any categories of personal information that are considered particularly sensitive in some jurisdictions (such as information regarding health or biometric data), we will use this information only as permitted or required by applicable law.
