  1. How we protect your personal data
    1. We will not transfer your personal data outside the European Economic Area without your consent.
    2. We have implemented generally accepted standards of technology and operational security in order to protect personal data from loss, misuse, or unauthorised alteration or destruction.
    3. Please note, however, that where you are transmitting information to us over the internet, then given the internet is not a secure medium, we cannot definitely guarantee the security of this information.
    4. For any payments which we take from you online we will use a recognised online secure payment system.
    5. We will notify you promptly in the event of any breach of your personal data which might expose you to serious risk.
  2. Who else has access to the information you provide us?
    1. We will never sell your personal data. We will not share your personal data with any third parties without your prior consent (which you are free to withhold) except where required to do so by law or as set out in the table in paragraph 3 above or paragraph 5.2 below.
    2. We may pass your personal data to third parties who are service providers, agents and subcontractors to us for the purposes of completing tasks and providing services to you on our behalf (e.g. to provide courses that you have agreed you wish to attend). However, we disclose only the personal data that is necessary for the third party to deliver the service and we have a contract in place that requires them to keep your information secure and not to use it for their own purposes.
  3. How long do we keep your information?
    1. We will hold your personal data on our systems for as long as you are a member of
      the Club and for as long afterwards as is necessary to comply with our legal
      obligations. We will review your personal data every year to establish whether we
      are still entitled to process it. If we decide that we are not entitled to do so, we will
      stop processing your personal data with the exception of retaining your personal
      data in an archived form in order to be able to comply with future legal obligations,
      including but not limited to compliance with tax requirements and exemptions, and
      the establishment exercise or defence of legal claims.
    2. We securely destroy all financial information once we have used it and no longer need it.
