Privacy Policy

Depending on how you interact with MIHS, we may collect information that you choose to provide, information generated through your use of our website, and information received from an organisation registering or contacting us on your behalf. We collect only information reasonably needed for the relevant purpose.

• Name, designation, company or organisation, business role and participation details.
• Email address, telephone or mobile number, postal address, city, state, country and other registration information.
• Information provided through visitor, exhibitor, sponsor, speaker, partner, media, enquiry or other website forms.
• Event preferences, access requirements, attendance details, communications preferences and information relevant to exhibition administration.
• Information about website interactions, device or browser characteristics, approximate location, pages viewed, referring source and digital communications, where collected through cookies or similar technologies.
• Any other information you voluntarily provide to MIHS or that is necessary to respond to your request or administer an exhibition-related activity.

MIHS may use information for legitimate business, operational and event-related purposes, including to:

• process visitor, exhibitor, sponsor, speaker, partner, media and other registrations or enquiries;
• provide information about MIHS exhibitions, participation opportunities, venue or access arrangements and related services;
• send important registration, event, operational, safety or service updates;
• respond to requests, coordinate with authorised exhibitors, partners, vendors or service providers, and administer event activities;
• improve the MIHS website, registration journey, communications and user experience;
• send newsletters, invitations or promotional communications where permitted and where you have not opted out; and
• maintain records, prevent misuse, protect rights and property, comply with applicable law, and establish, exercise or defend legal claims.

MIHS does not sell personal information. We may share relevant information with organisers, group entities, exhibition venues, registration and technology providers, communications providers, contractors, security or access-control providers, professional advisers, and other partners who support the operation of MIHS activities. We share only what is reasonably necessary and require appropriate confidentiality, security and data-handling obligations where applicable.

We may also disclose information where required by law, a lawful request, a court or regulatory authority, or where necessary to protect the safety, rights or property of MIHS, participants or others. If information is transferred outside India or another country in which it was collected, MIHS will apply the safeguards required by applicable law and the relevant service arrangement.

MIHS may use cookies, pixels, log files and similar technologies to keep the website functioning, remember preferences, understand website usage, measure communications, improve registration journeys and support security. Some technologies are necessary for core functionality. Others may be optional and will be used only as permitted by applicable law and your choices.

You can manage cookies through your browser or any preference tool made available on the website. Disabling certain cookies may affect website functionality.

MIHS uses reasonable technical, organisational and administrative measures designed to protect information against unauthorised access, loss, misuse, alteration or disclosure. Measures may include access controls, vendor diligence, secure transmission, limited access on a need-to-know basis, record-management procedures and incident-response processes.

No internet transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure. MIHS will assess and respond to suspected incidents in accordance with applicable requirements.

MIHS retains information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, to administer registrations and exhibition relationships, maintain business and financial records, resolve disputes, prevent misuse, comply with legal or regulatory requirements, or establish, exercise or defend legal claims. Retention periods vary by information type and purpose.

When information is no longer required, MIHS will delete, anonymise or securely dispose of it in accordance with applicable procedures.

Subject to applicable law and reasonable verification, you may contact MIHS to:

• request information about personal data held about you;
• request correction of inaccurate or incomplete information;
• request deletion or erasure where applicable;
• withdraw consent or manage marketing and newsletter preferences;
• object to or ask about certain processing activities;
• request information about relevant service providers or cross-border transfers where applicable; and
• raise a question, concern or complaint regarding the handling of your information.

MIHS may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes to its website, registration services, exhibitions, technology, business practices or applicable legal requirements. The updated version will be published on this page with a revised “Last Updated” date.

Where a change is material, MIHS may provide additional notice through the website, registration process or other appropriate communication. Please review this page periodically.
