# Manage my contacts


### Structures

Structures are the entities that take part in your events: companies, individual businesses, associations, local authorities, etc. Each structure may have one or more coordinators: coordinators have access to the portal allowing them to submit accreditation and service requests for all participants associated with the structure.

|| The [coordinators](https://help.qomeet.com/en/article/structures-coordinator-1i2yc2t/) can be present at the event or not. If they need to be accredited, they must be registered as [participants](#3-participants).


### Contacts

Contacts are the individuals who take part in your events. They may belong to one or more [structures](#3-structures), as coordinators and/or members.
In your [organization space](https://help.qomeet.com/en/article/organization-space-7uwe4i/), you will find a list of all your contacts, who can be registered for your events as [participants](#3-participants).


### Participants

Participants are the contacts who will attend your events. They must be accredited and may have access to different services. For each event, participants are linked to a [structure](#3-structure) and belong to a specific [category](#3-participant-categories). In the participant sheet, you will find all the information about participants that you have entered or collected via a [registration form](https://help.qomeet.com/en/article/registration-forms-56ov8q/). When the participant's email address is entered, they can access their personal space on the [registration portal](https://help.qomeet.com/en/article/registration-portal-6vmu27/).



### Participant categories

Categories are the different types of participants who may be present at your event: suppliers, artists, guests, journalists, etc. In the parameters of your event, you can list the different categories of participants that can register for your event and you will be able to associate a registration form with each category.

### Participant registration

Participants can be registered for your events in different ways:

**Registration by event organizers**
As an organizer, you can register your [contacts](#3-contacts) yourself as participants in your events.

**Registration by the structure's coordinators**
Some structures may prefer to entrust participant registration to a third party, the [structure's coordinator](https://help.qomeet.com/en/article/structures-coordinator-1i2yc2t/) (the team leader, someone from the administrative department, etc.). The coordinator can register the structure's participant via the [registration portal](https://help.qomeet.com/en/article/organizations-registration-portal-3a6m0l/).

**Direct registration by participants themselves**
In other cases, it may be more convenient for participants to register themselves, rather than giving their information to a third party (coordinator). If [direct registration](https://help.qomeet.com/en/article/share-a-link-to-the-registration-form-1pg4gxo/) is allowed for the event, the organizers or the structure coordinator can share a direct registration link with participants so that they can fill out the registration form themselves.

| Even when participants register themselves, the coordinators of the structure always have access to the participants' information and can intervene in exchanges via the messaging system.
