14. Event & Conference Registrations and Sponsor Disclosures

When you register for an OWP-hosted event, training, or conference, we collect personal information such as your name, email address, organization, and role. This information is used to facilitate your participation, send logistical updates, and tailor our programming.

For events that include sponsorships, we may offer sponsors the benefit of receiving limited registration information (e.g., name, organization, and email address) so they can follow up with attendees. This information will only be shared if you provide consent at the time of registration.

You will be notified during the registration process when sponsor data sharing applies and will have the option to opt in or out.
