Privacy Policy of Nobbys Beach Surf Life Saving Club Inc., Liquor Licence No: 87741 

Foreword correspondence

The Club is committed to safeguarding club member’s privacy and ensuring the confidentiality and security of the personal information we may collect from you. 

To comply with legal requirements and to run our business effectively, it is necessary for us to collect certain personal information from members and other individuals and organisations we associate with. At the minimum, this may include information such as member’s names, addresses and contact details. Additional information may be required, depending on the nature of your dealings with the Club. 

We will only use or disclose your personal information for the primary purpose it was collected for, unless you have consented to the information being used for a secondary purpose. 

The Club takes all reasonable measures to protect personal information from loss, unauthorised access, destruction, misuse, modification or disclosure. However, despite concerted efforts, the Club takes no responsibility for the unauthorised use of personal information. 

Application

The Privacy Policy applies to personal information collected by the club, as the club is an applicable organisation under the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth), which governs the way private sector organisations collect, use, keep secure and disclose personal information. 

The Privacy Policy outlines how the club complies with the Australian Privacy Principles (APP’s), including:

  • how and when the club collects personal information;
  • how the club uses and discloses personal information;
  • how the club keeps personal information secure, accurate and up-to-date;
  • how an individual can access and correct their personal information; and
  • how the club will facilitate or resolve a privacy complaint.

We recommend that you read and understand the Privacy Policy and keep it for future reference. The Policy is subject to change and the Club encourages it’s member’s and guests to review the Policy periodically. If you require any clarification, you can contact us on the address at the end of the document.
