9. Event ‘Bookers’

CPD Portal is a “self-service” platform where Event Bookers can book their attendance on events. When you book onto an event directly, your commercial agreement is entirely with the event provider. CPD Portal does not manage or control any of the listings or events on our website and beyond providing the software services to promote and manage events online we do not have any affiliation with the event provider, venue or event.

If you have any questions about an event, booking, refunds, data privacy or terms and conditions please contact the Event Provider directly. You may also find contact details for them in the same place you found the original link for their event (e.g. their website, Facebook page, or Twitter account).

Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password which enables you to access certain parts of our site, or you have invited team members to access parts of our site, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential. We ask you not to share a password with anyone. You should reset your password periodically; you can do this by logging in and resetting your password. Your password should be unique and not a derivative of an existing one. 

As an Event Booker you are subject to the CPD Portal's Privacy Policy and Terms and Conditions, and by using the service you accept the terms and conditions. 


10. CPD Event Providers 

CPD Portal is a “self-service” platform where CPD Event Providers manage their own event listings, and customer bookings entirely. When you book onto an event directly your commercial agreement is entirely with the event provider. CPD Portal does not manage or control any of the listings or events on our website and beyond providing the software services to promote and manage events online we do not have any affiliation with the event provider, venue or event.

When you (as an Event Organiser) use the CPD Portal  for promoting events and collecting data from your attendees you are the “data controller” of all your attendees’ data. CPD Portal is a “data processor”, which means that the CPD Portal won’t do anything with your attendees’ data other than what you need the the CPD Portal to do in order to provide the service. The CPD Portal will not send attendees any marketing emails or share their data with anyone. 

The Event Organiser is responsible for the security and their GDPR compliance in the use of any data exported from the CPD Portal and should adhere to their own organisation's policy and practice. 

The CPD Portal cannot be held responsible for any data breach relating the mishandling of data / data exported from the system by an Event Organiser. 

The CPD Portal provides the ability for Event Organisers to email event delegates directly through the system (This is a feature of the Tier 2 Subscription). This functionality has been designed to send service related (operational) emails specific to an Organiser's event attended by the recipient of such email. If an Organiser wants to use this function for marketing purposes, you (the Organiser) need to secure your own compliant opt-in consents for the sending of marketing emails. Each event provides event attendees with the option to set their communication preferences.

If  an event attendee/booker should have any questions about an event, booking, refunds, data privacy or terms and conditions they should contact the event organiser directly via the ‘Contact’ menu, selecting the provider they wish to contact. They may also find contact details for them in the same place they found the original link for their event (e.g. their website, Facebook page, or Twitter account).

Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password which enables you to access certain parts of our site, or you have invited team members to access parts of our site, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential. We ask you not to share a password with anyone. You should reset your password periodically; you can do this by logging in and resetting your password. Your password should be unique and not a derivative of an existing one. 

As an Event Organiser you are subject to the CPD Portal's Privacy Policy and Terms and Conditions, and by using the service you accept the terms and conditions as well as your responsibilities as a data processor. 

If you wish to report misuse of the system or you suspect a fraudulent event listing please send the details via the contact form and include a link to the event.

If you wish to promote your own events take a look at the Find Out More to learn more about all the features we offer.

10.1 Event Deletion 

In order to avoid having to restore your events after deletion and introducing an overhead, we don't currently provide this functionality. Instead of deleting a event you  can 'Unpublish' the event and it will be hidden. If you require the event permanently deleted from the platform we can of course delete it for you. Please contact us if you require an event deleted. 


10.2 Event Expiry

Events where the end date has expired will be removed from the platform. Once they have been deleted from the system it is not possible to recover them.  

Please contact us if you wish to retain an expired event before the event’s end date.




11. Canceling a subscription order

Subscription orders for the CPD Portal placed directly with In-Finity Solutions are processed immediately and can only be canceled by contacting the CPD Portal Help Desk. If you decide you no longer wish to use or retain access to the service to which you've subscribed, you must contact us to request cancellation within 30 days of the subscription expiry date (the expiry date is 12months from the date the subscription was taken out). Failure to inform CPD Portal you wish to cancel within the agreed time will result in you being billed for the next year’s membership.


11.1 Access to Data

You will have access to files uploaded to your account and your events for 30 days after the subscription end date. After 30 days, your account will be disabled and become inaccessible and all your events will be deleted from the platform.  


11.2 Subscription Renewal

Your subscription automatically renews when your contract expires to ensure you have continuous access to the platform (You will be invoiced 60 days before your renewal date). You will be charged for a new subscription term on the renewal date listed in the ‘My Subscriptions’ menu. 

You can cancel the automatic renewal within 30 days or your renewal date by contacting our Help Desk. You will retain access to platform and services until the renewal date but will not be automatically charged for a new term. Access to the platform and any services will end on your subscription renewal date.

A lack of engagement with the service is not considered grounds for any reimbursement of subscription fees. The Plymouth Strategy Portal provides the infrastructure for collaboration and communications. By signing up your organisation to the platform, you agree to these Terms of Use. You as a user/organisation decide to collaborate and communicate, the platform merely provides the functionality to do so. 


11. Applicable law

These terms of use, its subject matter and its formation (and any non-contractual dispute or claim) are governed by English law. We both agree to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales.

12. Webinar Video Recording and Publication Consent 

By participating in an online webinar event, you agree to authorise recording of audio and visual content presented during the live event and consent to subsequent use of the recording in the public domain by the provider presenting the live webinar, unless otherwise stated by the provider.
