AUTHORISED USERS

  2. You agree to log-off from your Account at the end of each session and to email us immediately at delegates@canneslions.com if you become aware of any loss, theft or unauthorised use or disclosure of your username/password and/or Account. We shall not be liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to comply with these requirements.

  3. The user agrees that a single user name and password shall be made available to each user, and not made available to multiple users (i.e. no sharing of user names and passwords). Breach of this Clause 20 shall be considered a material breach of these terms and conditions.

DATA PROTECTION

  1. General: Cannes Lions agrees that it will take appropriate technical and organisational measures against the accidental, unlawful or unauthorised processing, destruction, loss, damage or disclosure of personal data received or used in fulfilling its obligations under these terms and conditions. In these terms and conditions personal data is as defined by all laws and regulations (as updated, amended or replaced from time to time) applicable to such data.

  2. Privacy Policy: Further information about how Cannes Lions uses personal data can be found in our Privacy & Cookie Policy.

  3. Communications: We will use email addresses provided to us to send delegates important Festival information, including but not limited to, speaker announcements, programme updates and invitations to special Festival events, that we believe will enhance their Festival experience. All delegates will have the option to opt out of communications.

  4. Cannes delegate listing: To further enable networking among delegates at the Festival, we will share your name, job title, company name and country or city where you are based (the “Delegate Information”) with other delegates, third parties and sponsors via our secure networking service in the official Cannes Lions Festival mobile app.

  5. Access: All registered delegates who have opted into networking will appear on the delegate listing once the service has gone live, which enables other registered delegates (via a login) to contact you prior to and during the Festival. Access will be made available to participating delegates via the official Cannes Lions Festival mobile app.

  6. You are in control: Delegates’ email address and telephone numbers will not be made public through the delegate listing or otherwise. If a delegate chooses to message another delegate, the message will be sent from the delegate’s profile. If a delegate chooses to reply, further communication will continue through the delegates’ chat function. All delegates can opt out of networking by emailing delegates@canneslions.com or by logging into the Official Cannes Lions App and opting out through the App settings once the App has gone live. If a delegate opts out, this will disable contact from other delegates and deny access to the delegate listing. Their Delegate Information will no longer be visible on the delegate listing. After the Festival, the delegate listing will be discontinued and all Delegate Information will be removed from the App.

  7. Reservation of rights: Cannes Lions reserves the right to deny access and remove any delegates from the delegate listing for inappropriate use. You agree to use the delegate listing respectfully and solely to network, exchange ideas and contact details where appropriate.
