Some of our events are sponsored. Ultimate Fintech may at times allow sponsors, co-sponsors and/or exhibitors to send you material by mail, in which case Ultimate Fintech engages a third-party mailing house and does not share your mailing address directly with the sponsor/exhibitor. In cases where the event being hosted is a Virtual event, your details will be shared to sponsors and exhibitors who you have engaged with via booth visit (Click), collateral download and or im,audio or video chat.

Exhibitors at Ultimate Fintech events may wish to scan your badge so they can contact you with more information. Ultimate Fintech may at times use a third-party service provider to provide badge scanning services to exhibitors who request it. By allowing an exhibitor to scan your badge you are consenting to have the third-party service provider to send the exhibitor your contact information, and thereafter you may be contacted by the exhibitor post-event. If you do not wish the exhibitor to contact you, please communicate this directly with the exhibitor at the event or thereafter.
