The type of personal information we collect 

We currently collect and process the following information:

Personal identifiers, contacts and characteristics (for example, title, name, preferred pronoun, job position, place of work and contact details)

How we get the personal information and why we have it

The personal information we process is provided to us directly by the person registering for the Obesity Alliance in the capacity of attendee or sponsor, for one of the following reasons:

  • Contact information to help the Obesity & Weight Management Alliance events team resolve any queries arising from the individual’s registration and / or desire to be a sponsor.

  • Contact information to help the Obesity & Weight Management Alliance events team facilitate the smooth running of the event for all concerned.

We may share names, job titles and places of work through delegate lists to partners and sponsors of Obesity & Weight Management Alliance events.

We also give individuals the opportunity to sign up for updates about healthcare education, campaigns and events organised by Orange Juice Communications. This is optional and if declined will not prevent individuals from registering for Obesity & Weight Management Alliance or becoming a sponsor for the event. If individuals sign up for these updates, they will be alerted to upcoming healthcare education, campaigns and events organised by Orange Juice Communications by the organisation’s events team. This is the same events team which manages the Obesity & Weight Management Alliance.
