How We Use Your Personal Data
There are four primary reasons why and how we will use your data. These reasons are defined below.
To Contact You
Tentpole Data Sciences uses the data we collect about you to provide Tentpole Data Sciences Websites,

upcoming Events. We also use it to send administrative information, such as notices related to products,

well as fraudulent or illegal activity.

We may use this information to recommend additional training courses.
Completion of Tentpole Data Sciences certifications by a services partner may be visible to Tentpole Data
Sciences and our customers, and completion of a training course may also be visible to the entity making
the training available to you. This registration and tracking may be conducted by third parties on behalf of
Tentpole Data Sciences.
Disclosure of Data
Service Providers and Affiliates
Tentpole Data Sciences may share personal data with other Tentpole Data Sciences affiliates and third-
party service providers or vendors contracted to provide services on our behalf (such as email fulfillment
providers and payment service providers). These third-party service providers or vendors may use data
we provide to them only as instructed by Tentpole Data Sciences.
Webinars, Events, and Other Activities Related to Tentpole Data Sciences Offerings
Tentpole Data Sciences may offer the following solely or jointly with third parties or partners: webinars,
Events, whitepaper downloads, or other services related to Tentpole Data Sciences offerings or services.
We may share your contact information and interests in these offerings or services with these approved
third parties to communicate with you about Tentpole Data Sciences.
When you attend an Event (either sponsored by Tentpole Data Sciences or one where Tentpole Data
Sciences is a participating vendor) and have your badge scanned, your personal data will be shared with
Tentpole Data Sciences, as well as with any partner or third party participating in that Event, and
potentially with the entity sponsoring your attendance at the Event. For example, if your badge is scanned
as you attend a session at a Tentpole Data Sciences-sponsored conference, Tentpole Data Sciences and
any co-presenters will have access to that information to understand who was in attendance, and
potentially follow up with you on relevant products or services. If you do not want your data shared with
Tentpole Data Sciences or partners in this manner, do not have your badge scanned. If your badge is
scanned by a partner or a third party at an event, your data will be governed by that party’s privacy
statement.

necessary to (a) conform to legal requirements or comply with legal processes; (b) protect and defend our
rights or property; (c) enforce the Website Terms and Conditions; and/or (d) act to protect the interests of
our users or others.
If Tentpole Data Sciences goes through a business transition, such as a merger, acquisition by another
company, or sale of all or a portion of its assets, your personal data may be among the assets
transferred.
Tentpole Data Sciences does not sell personal data that we collect or process under this Privacy
Statement.
Data Transfers – International
Tentpole Data Sciences operates as a global business and may transfer, store, or process your personal
data in a country outside your jurisdiction, including countries outside the European Economic Area
(“EEA”) and the United Kingdom (“UK”). However, we have taken appropriate safeguards with respect to
the protection of your privacy, fundamental rights and freedoms, and the exercise of your rights. For
example, if we transfer personal data from the EEA or UK to another country, such as the United States,
we will implement an appropriate data transfer solution such as entering into “standard contractual
clauses” approved by the European Commission or competent UK authority (as applicable) with the data
importer, or take other measures to provide an adequate level of data protection under EU and UK law.
Our Data Retention
Tentpole Data Sciences will retain your personal data as long as is necessary to perform a service for
you, comply with applicable laws or regulations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements or as is
otherwise necessary for the purpose of a legitimate interest pursued by Tentpole Data Sciences or a third
party that is not overridden by your personal rights and freedoms.

Legal Basis for Processing Personal Data
Our legal grounds for collecting and using your personal data as described in this Privacy Statement fall
into the following four categories.
Consent: In some cases, we ask you for your consent to process your personal data, such as when we
need your consent for marketing purposes. You can withdraw your consent at any time, which will not
affect the lawfulness of the processing before your consent was withdrawn. If you would like to withdraw
your consent, you can do so by contacting us at hello@tentpoledatasciences.com.
Legitimate Interest: We process certain data for the legitimate interests of Tentpole Data Sciences, our
affiliates, our partners, or our customers. These legitimate interests include, for example, contacting you
to provide support or sending you marketing information (subject to applicable law); detecting, preventing,
and investigating illegal activities and potential security issues; and maintaining and improving the
Website and mobile applications. We will rely on our legitimate interests for processing personal data only
after balancing our interests and rights against the impact of the processing on individuals.
Performance of a Contract: Sometimes we process personal data to perform our obligations under an
agreement with you. For example, we use payment information you provide when you register for an
Event to process your payment.
Other Legal Bases: In some cases, we may have a legal obligation to process your personal data, such
as in response to a court or regulator order. We also may need to process your personal data to protect
vital interests, or to exercise, establish, or defend legal claims.

practices.

law.
Cookie Notice
This Cookie Notice explains how Tentpole Data Sciences. and its affiliates use cookies and similar
technologies to recognize you when you visit a Tentpole Data Sciences website that links to the Privacy
Statement (“Website”). It explains what Cookie technologies are and why we use them, as well as your
rights to control our use of them.
What are Cookies?
Cookies are small data files that are placed or accessed on your device when you visit websites or other
digital properties. Some digital properties, such as mobile applications, may use similar but different
technologies (such as pixels or SDKs) but, for ease of reference, we will use the term “Cookie” to include
these technologies too. Digital property owners can use Cookies for a variety of reasons, such as
enabling their digital properties to work (or work more efficiently), providing personalized content and
advertising, and creating analytics.
Cookies set by the digital property owner (in this case, Tentpole Data Sciences) are called “first-party
cookies.” Only the digital property owner can access the first-party Cookies it sets. Cookies set by parties
other than the digital property owner are called “third-party Cookies.” Third-party Cookies enable third-
party features or functionality to be provided on or through the digital property (such as advertising,
interactive content, and social sharing). The parties that set these third-party Cookies can recognize your
device both when it visits the digital property in question and also when it visits other digital properties
that have partnered with them.
Why do we use Cookies on Tentpole Data Sciences Websites?
We use first-party and third-party Cookies for three main purposes:
– Required Cookies are necessary to manage the Website, and enable basic features of the Website to
function.
– Functional Cookies allow us to analyze your use of the Website to evaluate and improve our performance.
They may also be used to provide a better customer experience on the Website. For example, remembering
that you’ve completed a form, or providing us information about how our site is used.
– Advertising Cookies allow us to better understand your interests and show you ads that are more relevant to
you. For example, these Cookies may be used to share data with advertisers so that the ads you see are
more relevant to you and allow you to share certain pages with social networks.
