policy.

DTF Conference Malta is the data controller for personal data collected through this website and at our events. We run dtfconference.com and produce the DTF Conference series on maritime electrification. Contact: media@dtfconference.com

When you buy a ticket, register, sign up for updates or contact us, we collect:

• Name and email address
• Job title, company and country
• Billing details for invoices, such as company name, address and VAT number
• Dietary and accessibility needs, when you give them for the event
• Speaker and sponsor details: biography, photo, organisation, materials
• Messages you send us
• Marketing preferences and consents
• IP address, browser type and basic usage data
• QR check-in data at the event: arrival time and session attendance

Ticket payments are processed by Stripe. You enter card details on Stripe’s secure payment page; DTF does not see or store your full card number. We receive a payment confirmation and the details needed to issue your tickets and invoice.

Stripe processes payment data under its own privacy policy, available at stripe.com/privacy.

• Deliver the conference: issue tickets, send event information, manage check-in and meet dietary and accessibility needs
• Process payments and issue invoices
• Communicate about your registration and answer enquiries
• Send marketing emails about future events if you opted in. Every email has an unsubscribe link
• Improve and secure the website
• Meet legal and tax obligations

We do not sell your data and we do not use it for automated decision making.

• Contract: to deliver the event you registered for and process your payment
• Legitimate interests: to run and secure the site, contact business prospects and do basic analytics
• Consent: for marketing emails, non-essential cookies and optional information
• Legal obligation: to keep records the law requires

You can withdraw consent at any time without affecting earlier processing.

Some providers are based outside the European Economic Area, mainly in the United States. For those transfers we rely on Standard Contractual Clauses or the EU–US Data Privacy Framework.

• Registration records: up to 24 months after the event
• Dietary and accessibility information: deleted within 30 days of the event
• Marketing list: until you unsubscribe
• Speaker and sponsor records: up to 6 years
• Server logs: 30 to 90 days
• Payment and accounting records: as Maltese law requires, typically up to 10 years

You can access your data, correct it, have it deleted, restrict or object to processing, receive it in a portable format and withdraw consent. Email media@dtfconference.com and we will reply within one month.

You can also complain to the Information and Data Protection Commissioner (IDPC) in Malta.

Strictly necessary cookies keep the site working, including sign-in and checkout. They do not need consent. Analytics cookies help us understand how the site is used; we ask before setting them. Change your choice at any time in your browser or the cookie banner.

We use HTTPS, access controls and regular security reviews. No transmission over the internet is completely secure. If you have concerns, contact us.

DTF is a professional B2B event. We do not knowingly collect data from anyone under 16. If you think we have, contact us and we will delete it.

We link to third-party sites, including sponsors and media partners. We are not responsible for their privacy practices.

We update this policy from time to time and change the date above when we do. For significant changes we email registered users.
