Disclosure of personal data
We may also share data provided by you with service providers that we retain to perform services on our behalf, such as third-party content providers that facilitate event registrations, support displaying videos, and enable sharing of content in social media. These providers are contractually limited from using or disclosing the data except as is necessary to provide services to us or to comply with legal requirements. In addition, we may share personal information at your discretion, such as when you enroll in a webinar. Furthermore, we may disclose data about you where we are required or permitted by law to do so.

Logs
Ardent may also use logs to collect data about visitors’ use of the Website. Ardent may review server logs for security purposes, for example, to detect intrusions into our network. Server log data, which contains visitors’ IP addresses, could in instances of criminal malfeasance be used to trace and identify individuals. In such instances, raw data logs would be shared with appropriate investigative bodies authorized to investigate such breaches of security. Like cookies, logs do not cross reference the data automatically collected with any type of personal data that is voluntarily offered by you on or through this Website.
