CIRT WEBSITE AND CONFERENCE APP PRIVACY POLICY

Effective Date: August 21, 2026

The Construction Industry Round Table (“CIRT,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) provides the CIRT Conference App for CIRT members and approved conference attendees. CIRT is committed to protecting the privacy of your data. This notice explains how information is collected, used, and shared when you use the app.

Information We Collect

CIRT may collect information that you provide voluntarily, including through conference registration or information you previously provided for CIRT’s membership records. This information may include your name, email address, company, job title, contact information, conference registration status, and other professional or event-related information to improve attendee experience and app functionality.

We may also collect information that you choose to add to your app profile, such as a photograph, biography, professional interests, social media links, or other profile information.

Certain app features may request access to your device’s camera, photographs, notifications, or location. These features are used only when needed to provide functionality you choose to use, such as scanning another attendee’s badge, uploading a profile image, receiving conference notifications, or using location-based features. You can manage these permissions through your device settings.

CIRT acts as the data controller. The data collected is strictly used for event logistics, attendee communication, networking features related to the conference, and/or push notifications from CIRT admin staff regarding the conference. Your information is deleted from the app’s database within 60 days after the end of the event.

Eventify acts as the data processor handling the app infrastructure. When you use the app, Eventify, the technology provider supporting the app, may process technical and usage information such as your device type, operating system, app and browser version, IP address, app activity, pages or features used, messages, survey responses, networking activity, QR-code scans, and diagnostic or performance information.

How We Use Information

CIRT and its service providers may use this information to:

Confirm your eligibility to access the app and CIRT conference information;
Provide conference schedules, session information, speaker profiles, notifications, surveys, and other event services;

Respond to questions and provide app support;
Maintain the security and operation of the app, including as needed by our technology provider, Eventify;
Understand app participation and improve future CIRT conferences; and

Member Networking and Information Sharing

The app and website include optional networking features. Information included in your attendee profile may be visible to other conference attendees. If you use badge scanning, messaging, meeting requests, or similar networking features, relevant profile or professional contact information may be shared with the members with whom you choose to interact.

Please do not include sensitive personal information in your attendee profile, messages, surveys, or other app content.

Service Providers and Disclosure

If you have other apps or a profile for other events for which Eventify provides services, the information collected by Eventify may be subject to Eventify’s privacy policy.

CIRT may also use other service providers to support conference registration, communications, surveys, website operations, and related services. Information may be disclosed when reasonably necessary to provide these services, protect the security or rights of CIRT or others, comply with law, or respond to a lawful request.

CIRT does not sell your personal information.

Data Retention and Security

CIRT retains app and conference information for as long as reasonably necessary to administer the event, maintain appropriate organizational records, provide member services, meet legal obligations, and resolve disputes. CIRT and its service providers use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures intended to protect your information.

LEGAL DISCLAIMER: DIGITAL MILLENNIUM COPYRIGHT ACT "NOTICE AND TAKE DOWN" PROCEDURES

DESIGNATED AGENT

CIRT “Notice and Takedown” Procedure:
It is CIRT’s policy to expeditiously respond to clear notices of alleged copyright infringement that comply with the
United States Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA). This page describes the information that should be
present in these notices. It is designed to make submitting notices of alleged infringement to CIRT as
straightforward as possible while reducing the number of notices that we receive that are fraudulent or difficult to
understand or verify. The form of notice specified below is consistent with the form suggested by the DMCA (the
text of which can be found at the U.S. Copyright Office Web Site, http://www.copyright.gov), but we will respond
to notices of this form from other jurisdictions as well.

It is expected that all users of any part of the CIRT site will comply with applicable copyright laws. However, if the
CIRT receives proper notification of claimed copyright infringement, our response to these notices will include
removing or disabling access to material claimed to be the subject of infringing activity and/or terminating
subscribers, regardless of whether we may be liable for such infringement under United States law or the laws of
another jurisdiction.

If we remove or disable access in response to such a notice, we will make a good-faith attempt to contact the
owner or administrator of the affected site or content so that they may make a counter notification pursuant to
Sections 512(g)(2) and (3) of the DMCA. We may also document notices of alleged infringement on which we act.

The CIRT Designated Agent to receive notification of alleged infringement under the DMCA is:

Email: cirt@cirt.org

Mail: CIRT, 1735 New York Ave NW, Washington, DC 20006

Upon receipt of proper notification of claimed infringement, the CIRT will follow the procedures outlined here in and in the DMCA.
