This Privacy Policy explains how Access Fort Worth (“Access Fort Worth,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, and shares your information when you use Live Connect Fort Worth, our event networking directory (the “Service”). The Service is offered in the United States. By using the Service you agree to this Policy.
1. Information we collect
You provide most of this information directly when you register:
- Profile details — your first and last name, company, job title, and industry.
- Contact information — your cell phone number and email address.
- Photo — the selfie or profile picture you choose to upload.
- Networking preferences — what you are looking for, a short description of what you offer, and whether you are open to being contacted.
- Account credentials — the password you set (stored in encrypted form; we cannot read it).
We also automatically collect limited technical and usage information, such as your device type, general activity within the app, and event check-in activity, which helps us operate and improve the Service.
2. How we use your information
- To create your account and build your attendee profile.
- To display your profile in the event directory when you have chosen to appear there.
- To let you and other attendees connect, for example by text message or by saving a contact card.
- To send you account-related messages, such as email confirmation and important notices about the Service.
- To operate, secure, analyze, and improve the Service.
3. How your information is shared
With other attendees.When you opt into the directory using the “Open to being contacted” setting, your profile — including your name, photo, company, role, and the contact details you provided — is visible to other attendees of the same event so they can reach out to you. If you turn that setting off, you are removed from the directory.
With service providers. We share information with trusted providers who help us run the Service, such as our cloud hosting, analytics, and text-messaging partners. They may only use your information to perform services for us.
For legal reasons. We may disclose information if required by law or to protect the rights, safety, and security of our users, the public, or Access Fort Worth.
We do not sell your personal information.
4. Your choices and rights
- Edit your profile — update your details at any time from your profile page.
- Leave the directory— turn off “Open to being contacted” to remove yourself from attendee search.
- Delete your account — email contact@accessfortworth.com and we will delete your account and associated personal information, except where we must keep it to meet a legal obligation.
Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights over your personal information, such as the right to access, correct, or delete it. To exercise any of these rights, contact us at contact@accessfortworth.com.
5. Data retention
We keep your information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the Service. When you delete your account, we remove your personal information within a reasonable period, unless we are required to retain it for legal or security reasons.
6. Security
We use reasonable administrative and technical safeguards to protect your information, including encrypted storage and access controls. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
7. Children’s privacy
The Service is intended for business professionals aged 18 and older. We do not knowingly collect information from children. If you believe a child has provided us information, contact us and we will delete it.
8. Changes to this Policy
We may update this Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the “Last updated” date above. Significant changes may be communicated within the Service.
9. Contact us
