Convene Privacy Policy

Hospitality-Workspace Hybrid | Last reviewed: January 2026

Privacy Summary

Convene's hospitality model means hotel-level tracking in a workspace setting. Guest registration, event attendance, catering preferences, and daily workspace usage all feed into detailed profiles. The event focus adds another dimension—capturing data about who you meet with, what you discuss (through meeting room bookings), and how you entertain clients.

Key Privacy Concerns

Extensive Guest Tracking

Every guest who enters a Convene space is logged. If you host meetings or events, your clients' and partners' information is captured—potentially without their awareness of how it will be used.

Event Surveillance

Events at Convene spaces are documented extensively. Attendance tracking, photography, and even audio/video recording for "experience" purposes may capture sensitive business discussions and relationships.

Photography for Marketing

Your image may be captured and used in Convene marketing materials. The hospitality model assumes implicit consent for photography, similar to hotels but in a daily work environment.

Client Relationship Exposure

Meeting room bookings, guest logs, and event patterns can reveal your business relationships. Who you meet with, how often, and for what purposes becomes part of Convene's data.
