We use the information we have collected, to provide our services to you which includes: informing you by email about, and inviting you to participate as audience in, our current and evolving live and on-demand video content; analysing attendance, in order that we can connect fundraising companies to interested investors such as yourself where appropriate, as well as to provide supporting evidence of a return on investment in the case where we have been contracted by a partner, sponsor or client, to provide live or on-demand TV coverage of a partner or client event.
