This Privacy Policy explains how G3ict – Global Initiative for Inclusive Information and Communication Technologies, Inc. (“G3ict”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) collects, uses, and protects personal information in connection with the M‑Enabling Summit website, event registration, and related services.

This policy applies to information collected through the M‑Enabling Summit website, registration systems, and event participation.

Registration Platform (Cvent)

Registration for the M‑Enabling Summit is hosted on the Cvent event management platform. When you register for the conference, your personal information is collected and processed through Cvent’s secure systems.

Cvent acts as a service provider to facilitate event registration, payment processing, attendee management, and event logistics.

Cvent’s privacy practices are governed by its own privacy policy available at:

• Mailing or billing address
• Payment information processed through secure third‑party payment processors
• Event participation information
