The Enterprise Opinions Group of companies (The ITAM Review and ITAM Review Learning) understand that your privacy is important to you and that you care about how your personal data is used. We respect and value the privacy of everyone who we interact with whether you visit our website, attend one of our events or apply for job. We do not collect personal data about you unless we need it for a specific purpose. Any personal data we do collect will only be used as permitted by law and according to the original purpose for collecting it in the first place, unless you give us permission to process it for other reasons or it is lawful for us to do so.
Please read this privacy policy carefully and ensure that you understand it. If you have any questions or need more information please contact us using the contact details below.
About us
The ITAM Review (https://itassetmanagement.net) and ITAM Review Learning (https://lisa.training) are part of the Enterprise Opinions Limited family of companies. They are all legal entities in their own right but complement each other and all relate to IT asset management.
As such, this privacy policy sets out how collectively we process your personal data when you engage with all or any of these parts of our business. You should think of them as two websites run by the same company and therefore we will collect and process data from both parts of the business collectively, although it will always be obvious which part of the business you are interacting with at any time.
The kind of personal data collected will vary depending on how you interact with us:
We will only collect personal information from you that we require for a specific lawful purpose. It will always be obvious why we need the information. We require this information to understand your needs and provide you with a better service, in particular for the following reasons:
How we use Cookies on our sites
Cookies are small text files saved to your device when you visit a website. We use cookies to help with the performance of our website and for other reasons set out in this privacy policy.
Before some of these cookies are placed on your computer or device, you will be shown a pop-up requesting your consent to set those cookies. By giving your consent to the placing of cookies you are enabling us to provide the best possible experience and service to you. You may, if you wish, deny consent to the placing of cookies.
Essential cookies
In some cases, we may use cookies that are essential for the running of the website. Without these cookies, the website would not function properly.
Analytics and site statistics
When someone visits our website, we make use of the Google Analytics service to collect standard information about visitors to the sites and their behaviour (e.g. what pages they viewed). The data provided by Google Analytics is anonymised and in no way enables us to identify individual visitors, however, Google Analytics will place a cookie on your device to enable the service. For more information about how Google Analytics cookies work on websites visit: https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/collection/analyticsjs/cookie-usage
We also use Statcounter to count hits to our website. Again the service uses cookies to do this, and we have no way of identifying you from the use of this service or the cookie. More information about Statcounter’s cookies can be found here: https://statcounter.com/about/cookies/
Cookies used to help us manage use of our website
We make use of Google’s reCAPTCHA service to protect “spam” comments and form filling. For this service to function, cookies are required.
Cookies used for measuring effectiveness of our social and ad activities
We use a number of different cookies which are placed by third-party services such as Twitter, LinkedIn, etc. These help us understand how visitors navigate to our websites from social media and other advertising. You can find out more about the use of these cookies here. You can find out more information about the use of these third-party cookies via their respective websites.
Marketing and advertising related cookies
We use a range of different online tools which allow us to market our services. These services are provided by Google, Microsoft, MailChimp, Cognism and Zoho. They enable us to understand the behaviours of our website visitors so that we target effective marketing. Such services make use of cookies which may in some instances allow us, or the service provides to track or identify individual users. We will not place these cookies on your device until you have given us consent to do so.
Links to other websites
Where our sites link to content on other websites, please note that we have no control over how your data is collected, stored, or used by these other websites and we advise you to check the privacy policies of any such websites before providing any data to them.
We often run online or in-person events in association with partners who sponsor or co-collaborate on these events. Where we do so, for the purposes of the event we will be joint-controller with the partner. As such, your registration details will be shared with the partner, who may contact you with information related to the joint project and/or their products and services.
More information about this will be provided at the point you register in a separate privacy policy, so you know exactly who we’re sharing your data with.
We use a number of social media channels to promote our business and to interact with individuals.
We may use advertising functionality of these channels as well as search engines in conjunction with the cookies we use on our own sites to target advertising to you about our products and services. Where we do, we will only do so when it is lawful to advertise in this way.
Any personal data we hold will be processed and stored securely, for no longer than is necessary in light of the reason(s) for which it was first collected. We will comply with our obligations and safeguard your rights under the GDPR at all times.
We use a number of third-party systems to store your personal data; these will vary depending on whether you call us on the phone, email us, sign up for our newsletter, for an online conference, etc.
We will only store the minimal amount of information in these systems and we only use third-party systems that we can trust to be GDPR compliant. We also make sure we have a contract (sometimes called a Data Processing Agreement or DPA) in place to legally bind that compliance.
For some of these third-party systems this does mean that your data may be stored and processed outside the European Economic Area (EEA). Where this is the case, we have made sure that appropriate safeguards are in place to ensure appropriate protection for your data.
Unless stated elsewhere in this document, in our terms of services or any other privacy information provided to you, we only keep your personal data for as long as it is lawful for us to do so (e.g. to provide services to you), and/or for as long as we have your permission to keep it.
Under current data protection legislation in the UK, you have rights as an individual which you can exercise in relation to the data we store and process about you. You can find more information about your rights on the Information Commissioner’s website: https://ico.org.uk/for-the-public/
Access to your data
You have the right to ask for a copy of any of your personal data held by us (where such data is held). Under the GDPR, no fee is payable and we will provide any and all information in response to your request free of charge.
To make a request for any personal information we hold and process about you, we would prefer it if you could put it in writing or in an email to the address below. We may ask you to verify your identity before providing the information and where necessary may contact you further to ensure we understand what data you are requesting.

However, you have a right to contact us if you wish to object to any of our processing and we will tell you whether it’s possible for us to do so.
Where we have collected consent from you to process your personal data, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time. You can unsubscribe (opt-out) of any of our marketing messages by using the unsubscribe option or by contacting us.
