LRP Media Group Privacy Policy


Updated Privacy Policy (effective January 2020)

LRP Media Group values the trust our customers place in us when they give us access to their personal information. Please read this Privacy Policy (the “Policy”) carefully as it sets out important information relating to how we collect and use your personal information and your choices and rights regarding our use of your personal information. In this Policy, references to “we,” “us,” or “LRP” are references to LRP Media Group, LRP Publications, Inc. and LRP Conferences, LLC. These LRP Media Group companies will have access to information or individuals covered by this Policy.

This Policy also describes our practices when using your information we receive when you:

  • express an interest in or sign up for our events or products including books, newsletters, apps, conferences, expos, webinars, and e-books, or activate an LRP user account and/or license;
  • attend an LRP event, conference or expo; or
  • visit our websites or social media sites.

This Policy will apply whether you provided the information directly to us or we obtained it from a different source, such as a third party.

LRP is a business-to-business media organization that is based in the United States. We do not market to residents of the European Union. We comply with U.S. laws governing the privacy of personal information which may not provide the same level of data protection as provided under the laws of other countries.

Your use of LRP websites, attendance at an LRP event and/or provision of your personally identifiable information, sensitive personal information, or demographic information to LRP constitutes your consent to the use, storage, processing and transfer of that information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

LRP Privacy Statement

Throughout LRP websites, there are forms for visitors to request information, products, and services. These forms may ask for contact information (such as your phone number, fax number, street address, email address, employer name and job title), unique identifiers (usually your LRP customer number, if one is available, or other log-in credential), financial information (such as your credit card number), or demographic information (for example your location, certification designation, etc.). Contact information from these forms is used to provide the products, promotional materials, or memberships that you request. Forms on our site that request financial information do so in order to bill you for products or services ordered. Unique identifiers are collected from website visitors to verify the user’s identity for access to restricted content or features on the site.

This LRP Privacy Policy discloses LRP’s privacy practices and contains detailed information about the following:

LRP and its partners may use information disclosed through surveys or otherwise provided to or generated by LRP or partners (collectively “Research Data”) for validation, research and benchmarking purposes and product development. Unless otherwise specified prior to collection, Research Data will be disclosed in the aggregate and presented in anonymous form and will not include (directly or by inference) any information identifying participating organizations or any identifiable individual as the source of such data.

While we may have official profiles on social media platforms users are advised to verify authenticity of such profiles before engaging with or sharing information with such profiles. We will never ask for user passwords or personal details on social media platforms. Users are advised to conduct themselves appropriately when engaging with us on social media.

There may be instances where our website features social sharing buttons, which help share web content directly from web pages to the respective social media platforms. You use social sharing buttons at your own discretion and accept that doing so may publish content to your social media profile feed or page.


Third Party Links and Content

LRP’s sponsors, advertisers, and third-party content providers may have links on our sites and newsletters that take you to other websites. Please note that links to other websites are provided throughout LRP websites for users’ information and convenience.

Data Security


What kinds of security procedures are in place to protect against the loss, misuse or alteration of your information?

LRP has security measures reasonably expected in the industry, such as firewalls, in place to protect against the loss, misuse and alteration of your user data under our control. We make reasonable efforts to restrict access to information to only those employees, contractors, and agents who need such access in order to operate, develop, improve, or deliver our programs, products, and services. While we cannot guarantee that loss, misuse or alteration to data will not occur, we take reasonable precautions to prevent such unfortunate occurrences. Certain particularly sensitive information, such as your credit card number, collected for a commercial transaction is encrypted prior to transmission.

You are ultimately responsible for the security of your LRP login credentials. You may not share your LRP login credentials. You should log out of your browser at the end of each computer session to ensure that others cannot access your personal information and correspondence, especially if you share a computer with someone else or are using a computer in a public place like a library or Internet cafe.

Hardcopy personal information and demographic information provided to LRP which is not converted to electronic media and hosted by LRP will be subject to different security procedures than will stored electronic personal information and demographic information; but LRP does have security measures reasonably expected in the industry in place to protect against the loss, misuse and alteration of your hardcopy personal information and demographic information under our control.

Personal Information Retention Periods


We will retain your personal information for as long as required to perform the purposes for which the data was collected, depending on the legal basis for which that data was obtained and/or whether additional legal/regulatory obligations require us to retain it.

In general terms, this will mean that your personal information will be kept for the duration of our relationship with you and:

  • the period required by tax and company laws and regulations; and
  • as long as it is necessary for you to be able to bring a claim against us and for us to be able to defend ourselves against any legal claims. This will generally be the length of the relationship plus the length of any applicable statutory limitation period under local laws.

Choices About Your Personal Information


We believe it is important to give you choices about the use of your personal information. We will use your information as described in this Policy. If we want to use your information for a purpose not described in this Policy, we will first get your consent to do so or notify you at the point of collection of the information.

You may opt-out of marketing communications and our sharing of certain information. Instructions for opting out of any LRP email you receive are included with each email. Additionally, you may opt-out or direct questions regarding your personal information to LRP Customer Service by emailing custserve@lrp.com or calling 1-800-341-7874.

If you gave us your email address to receive marketing communications, you can opt out at any time by using the unsubscribe links or instructions included at the bottom of our emails.

If you opt out, we will not sell or share your personal information or information with third parties (other than our subsidiaries or affiliates) for their own promotional or marketing purposes unless you give us consent to do so or where permitted by applicable law.


LRP Events

We allow Exhibitors to scan attendee badges at our events. If you choose to allow an Exhibitor to scan your badge at the Exhibitor’s booth or when entering an Exhibitor session or function, you are giving us your consent to provide your contact details to that Exhibitor. Our Exhibitors’ use of any information you choose to share with them in this way is governed by each Exhibitor’s Privacy Policy. Badge scanning is optional and you may refuse to have your badge scanned by the Exhibitor.

Your California Privacy Rights (For California Residents Only)


LRP may disclose information gathered during registration to our affiliates and third parties who may use that information to market directly to you. As a California resident, you have the right to opt-out of having your personal information sold to such third parties. We will not share your information after we have received your notification that you are opting out. If you wish to opt-out please email custserve@lrp.com or call 1-800-341-7874.

The only personal information LRP collects, processes and maintains is information in which you have communicated with us concerning a business transaction, asked us to perform a service or provide you with a product, or which is otherwise excluded from the definition of “personal information” and most of the requirements with regard to that information within the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). The business basis for, and the manner in which, such business information is collected and processed is set forth within this Privacy Notice.

LRP does not “sell” personal information as the terms “sell” or “sale” are defined within CCPA. LRP does share certain information it collects with business partners who are its “service providers” and sharing information in this way is not a “sale” as that term is defined in the CCPA. Service providers are business partners who perform business functions for LRP, as the term “Service Provider” is defined within CCPA. They agree to use information only for these business purposes and not to redisclose it except as permitted or required by law as set out in our agreements with them. The nature of the services provided by these business partners and a description of the categories of these service providers is set forth within this Privacy Notice.

Categories of personal information we collect. Throughout this Policy, we discuss in detail the specific pieces of information we collect from and about users.

Described in the Policy and summarized below are the categories of personal information we collect:

  • Identifiers (such as name and title, contact details, and company name);
  • Internet or other network or device activity (such as browsing history or app usage);
  • Inference data about you; and
  • Other information that identifies or can be reasonably associated with you.

Use of categories of personal information. We may disclose the categories of personal information identified above for our operational purposes where the use is reasonably necessary and proportionate to achieve the operational purpose for which it was collected or processed, or for another compatible operational purpose.

We do share certain information as set forth in this Policy and allow third parties to collect certain information about your activity, for example through cookies, as explained in our Cookie Policy.

If you have questions regarding collection and sharing of your business information or believe that information that identifies you and has been collected and shared by LRP is not business information within the meaning of CCPA or is not provided to a service provider as stated above, and you wish to advise us of these beliefs and ask that we not share that information please contact custserve@lrp.com.
