Registration In order to use many features of Hansa|GCR Web sites, you may be asked to complete a registration form. During registration, you are required to provide contact information, which is used to determine whether you are a subscriber or the authorized employee of a subscriber.
Purchases and fulfillment When you place an order or register for a Hansa|GCR event, we may request additional information such as credit card number and expiration date.

Also, when you register for an event, we may request additional information about your hotel, meal and other travel preferences. This information is used only for the specific event.
Hansa|GCR uses third-party service providers such as credit card processing companies, shipping companies, mailing houses and event coordinators together with other service providers as required to satisfy client requests. When you register for a Hansa|GCR event, we provide necessary information to hotels and to facilities hosting events. These parties are allowed to use that personal information only to provide services relevant to the event.
Usage tracking We monitor how you use our Web sites including search terms you enter, pages visited and documents viewed.

Aggregated (not personally identifiable) forms of this data may also be used in order to help us understand areas for future research and to identify future features and functions to develop for the Web sites.
This data may also be used by Hansa|GCR, in the aggregate, to identify appropriate product offerings and subscription plans. This same data is also used by Hansa|GCR clients to help them understand how their subscriptions are being used by their employees and, in this case, is personally identifiable to the specific client.
