Privacy Notice
This Privacy Notice explains how PNL Fintech B.V. (“Finom”) processes your personal data when you register for, attend, or otherwise interact with a Finom-hosted event, webinar, online session, workshop, roundtable, or similar activity (collectively, “Events”), regardless of whether the Event takes place in person or online.

What personal data do we process?
The personal data we process depends on the type of Event you attend and how you interact with us.
When you register for any Finom Event, we collect your name and email address. You may also choose to provide your phone number, postal address, preferred language for communication, and professional details, such as your job title, company name, company size, and LinkedIn profile URL, which help us tailor the session and any related communications to you to the right audience but are not required to complete your registration. We also record your consent status in respect of marketing communications and any communications addressed to us by you in connection with the Event.
For in-person events, we may additionally collect dietary and accessibility requirements where you choose to provide them; this information is used solely to accommodate your needs on the day and is not used for any other purpose. We may also take photographs and record video footage at in-person Events. Such photographs and video are used only to publish a post-event recap on our social media channels, confirming that the Event took place and showcasing its atmosphere; we do not use this material for any other marketing or promotional purpose. If you would prefer not to be photographed, please let our team know at check-in.
For webinars and online sessions, the hosting platform records technical attendance data, including join and leave times and session duration. Where you participate through chat, Q&A, polls, or surveys, we may process the content of those contributions. Where a session is to be recorded, attendees will be notified in advance. If you do not wish to be recorded, you may keep your camera and microphone switched off throughout the session. We also analyse aggregated attendance and engagement data to improve future Events.
- 03
Why and on which legal basis do we process your data?
We process your personal data for the purposes of administering Finom Events, including managing your registration, providing access, sending you communications related to the Event, recording sessions where applicable, and analysing attendance and engagement data. The legal basis for this processing is our legitimate interests under Article 6(1)(f) GDPR, as the processing is necessary to facilitate your participation in the Event you have registered for.
Where online sessions are recorded for the purpose of making content available to registered participants or for internal review, we also rely on legitimate interests under Article 6(1)(f) GDPR.
If you have separately and explicitly opted in to receive our newsletter or product offers, the legal basis for those marketing communications is your consent under Article 6(1)(a) GDPR.
- 04
Who receives your data?
Within Finom, your personal data is accessible only to relevant Finom personnel involved in event management, marketing, sales, and customer success.
We may use external service providers to assist with the technical and administrative delivery of our Events, for example, to send emails, host and store data securely, and manage our databases, and marketing communications and support registration. These providers act under our instructions and are contractually bound to comply with applicable data protection laws and appropriate security measures.
Where Finom uses a third-party platform to host event registration pages or deliver online sessions, that platform processes your registration and attendance data as an independent controller under its own privacy policy. Finom is not responsible for that platform's independent data processing. We use only strictly necessary cookies on our Event pages, which do not require your consent, and no analytics, advertising, or tracking cookies. Where our Event pages include embedded content such as maps, limited technical data (such as your IP address) may be transferred to the relevant third-party provider on the basis of our legitimate interest, under Article 6(1)(f) GDPR, in providing functional and accurate Event information.
Where a service provider processes your personal data outside the European Economic Area (EEA), for example on the basis of an applicable adequacy decision or Standard Contractual Clauses, we ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place in accordance with applicable GDPR requirements.
- 05
How long do we store your data?
We retain your personal data only for as long as necessary for the purposes for which it was collected. This includes retaining your data for the period required to administer and follow up on the Event, to comply with any legal, regulatory, or contractual obligations applicable to Finom, and, where necessary, to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims. Where you have consented to receive marketing communications, we retain your contact details for that purpose until you withdraw your consent.
- 06
