Privacy Policy
Last updated July 01, 2026
Introduction
Exhibit Management Associates, Inc. (EMA), producers of the Mid-America Trucking Show (MATS), is committed to protecting your personal information. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and share your information when you use the MATS website (https://truckingshow.com) and related services.
By providing information on behalf of another individual or entity, you confirm that you have their authorization and are complying with applicable data protection laws.
We Do Not Sell Your Data
To protect our exhibitors and attendees from scams, MATS does not rent or sell your contact information to unauthorized third parties. We only share your necessary data with vetted Official Service Contractors and partners to ensure you receive the services required for the event.
What Information We Collect
We collect personal information in two primary ways:
- Information You Provide: When you register for MATS, complete a form, or subscribe to our newsletters, we collect details such as your name, job title, employer, address, email, phone number, and preferences.
- Information Collected Automatically: When you browse our website or interact with our ads, we collect data such as your IP address, general location, browser type, device information, and page view history.
How We Use Your Information
We use your data to operate our business and provide you with a seamless MATS experience. Specifically, we use it to:
- process event registration and participation;
- deliver MATS-related products, services, and hotel arrangements;
- communicate updates about MATS events, initiatives, and opportunities;
- tailor our products and services to your interests;
- deliver targeted advertising (only if you have specifically opted in);
- respond to your customer service inquiries.
Who We Share Your Information With
We limit the data we share to what is reasonably necessary for third parties to perform their specific functions. We may share your information in the following scenarios:
- Official Event Co-Sponsors & Exhibitors: When you authorize sharing by registering for specific events or allowing an exhibitor to scan your badge.
- Employers: If your employer requests confirmation of your registration for coordination purposes.
- Official Service Contractors: To fulfill requested services (e.g., booth setup, transportation, accessibility services, email marketing, or registration hosting).
- Legal & Safety Requirements: When required by law enforcement or government agencies, or to protect our rights, property, or safety.
- Business Transfers: In the event of a merger or acquisition, your information would be transferred under the same privacy commitments.
Third-Party Links
Our website may contain links or widgets from independent third parties. Any information you provide to them is governed by their own privacy policies, not ours.
Your Privacy Choices & Rights
You have control over your personal data. We invite you to contact us to:
- Request a copy of the personal information EMA holds about you (provided at no cost).
- Correct any inaccurate or incomplete information.
- Request the deletion of your personal information (subject to certain legal or operational limitations).
- Withdraw your consent for us to process your data.
- Opt-out of direct marketing communications (an unsubscribe link is also included in every marketing email).
Security & International Transfers
We use physical, technical, and administrative safeguards to protect your personal information following industry standards. However, no electronic transmission or storage is 100% secure, and you share information at your own risk.
EMA is headquartered in the United States. By using our Services, you consent to the transfer, processing, and storage of your information in the U.S. We process international data in compliance with applicable laws and standard contractual safeguards.
Children’s Privacy
Our Services are not directed towards minors, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe we have inadvertently collected information from a minor, please contact us so we can delete it.
Updates to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy as our Services or legal requirements change. Significant material changes will be posted prominently on this page. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
