We may collect information from you about your preferences through your use of this website, when you request information from us, or as a result of your relationship with one or more of our customers, or as you otherwise engage with us.

What information do we collect?

Crowd Connected may ask for and collect from you personally identifiable and other information at certain points via this website (or subsequently during our interactions with you). Depending on the information and/or services you request, you may be asked to provide your name, email address and other information. Our web servers record basic technical information, such as IP addresses and browser types, to deliver and secure the website.

If you accept marketing cookies, we use this information to measure and target our advertising. If you reject these cookies, we do not collect this usage information about you. Before you make a choice, Google Analytics receives only a cookieless signal that a page was viewed, with no identifier that could recognise you.

We do not collect information about your activities on other websites. If you accept marketing cookies, LinkedIn and Google may combine information about your visit to this website with information they hold about you, under their own privacy policies.

Our emails may contain tracking / tracked clickable links or similar technologies in order to measure subscriber activity. Where used, this enables us to record a range of subscriber data relating to engagement, geographic, demographics and already stored subscriber data.

Please note that we may use your marketing preferences together with other information you provide to us (including details of your interest in pour products/services) in order to build a profile for you. If you have accepted analytics cookies, we may supplement this profile with information about how you use our websites, review our content and interact with us.

How and why we share your information

Please note that we may on occasion be required to share your information with other third parties who provide services to us or on our behalf – for example we use HubSpot and MailChimp for marketing automation and CRM, Google Analytics for website analytics, and LinkedIn for advertising measurement.

This may entail a transfer of your information from a location within the European Economic Area (the “EEA”) to outside the EEA, or from outside the EEA to a location within the EEA.

We have taken steps to ensure that all such third parties keep your personal information confidential and secure and only use it for the purposes that we have specified and have informed you of.

If you tell us you wish to attend an event organised by us, for example, your name and organisation may appear on a list which we provide to other invitees at the event. We may also share your information when legally required to do so.
