These providers are contractually obligated to keep your data confidential.
  • Speaker Bureaus: If you elect or request to book David through an authorised speaker bureau (e.g., Chartwell Speakers, London Speaker Bureau, Speakers Associates, Ovations), we may share relevant booking parameters with that bureau to facilitate your contract.
  • Legal Requirements: We may disclose your information if required to do so by law or in response to valid legal requests by public authorities.
