Financial Information ‐ Payment information gathered during the registration process ‐ including but not limited to, credit card numbers, financial institutions, and expiration dates ‐ is considered Financial. This information is not distributed under any circumstance.

Professional Information ‐ Data that customers provide to StepEx through various methods of communications with Stepex is considered professional information that is stored and managed for StepEx’s internal use.

Professional information includes, but is not limited to, name, address, company name, company address, phone number, fax number, email address, as well as questions answered on survey or

Data captured during a customer’s visit to a StepEx website, as well as during a visit with another StepEx customer, is also considered professional information and may also be stored for StepEx’s internal use. Professional information may be shared with other organisations or StepEx customers for the purpose of facilitating business relationships in our customer’s best interests, unless you have opted out of such communications.

At Trade Shows
Anyone attending a session in our seminar theatres at one of our trade shows will have their visitor badge scanned and, through such attendance and scanning, will be agreeing to the passing of their professional information to the seminar host/exhibitor company and to being contacted by the seminar host/exhibitor company and/or speaker in relation to such session.
