We process this information to fulfill the order you have made to receive the event or web conference services.
- We keep a record of your participation in Cultivate Academics events as an attendee.

As is true of most other websites, the Cultivate Academics website collects certain information automatically and stores it in log files. The information may include internet protocol (IP) addresses, the region, or general location where your computer or device is accessing the internet, browser type, operating system, and other usage information about the use of Cultivate Academics website, including a history of the pages you view.

Cultivate Academics has a legitimate interest in understanding how customers and potential customers use its website. This assists Cultivate Academics with providing more relevant products and services, with communicating value to our subscribers, and with providing appropriate staffing to meet potential customers and customer needs.
