GDPR is a set of data protection rules that became part of UK law in May 2018. The rules were introduced to harmonise data privacy laws across Europe and give you greater protection and rights over what happens to your data.

If you have any questions please contact us and as always, we thank you for your support of our work.

Organisations need to be much clearer about what they do with your data. Our Privacy Policy gives you more information about what we do with your personal data and why we do it.

GDPR rules mean that you have easy access to your data so that you can see how it’s being used. You can also ask for your data to be deleted if there’s no compelling reason for organisations to keep it. On that basis, we’ve taken steps to make sure that we can deal with any of your data protection queries quickly and efficiently. If you don’t want us to use your data in a certain way you can tell us and we’ll respect your wishes.

We’ll also give you more details about the sort of information that we’ll send to you before you give your consent for us to stay in touch and we’ve made it easier for you to opt out of future contact.

Our Promise

We take your data protection rights seriously.

When handling your data, we will:

• Fully outline what we do with your data in clear and accessible language – see our Privacy Policy for more details.

• Only ask you for information that we need to give you a great experience of our club.

• Only keep your information for as long as is necessary.

• Make sure that we don’t contact you or use your data in ways that you don’t want us to.

• Deal with any concerns about how we use personal data in an open and timely way.

We will not:

Sell your data or share it with any other organisation for their own marketing purposes.

Keep any sensitive information about you (e.g. information about your health) without your consent.

Use your data in ways that you wouldn’t expect.
