About this policy
This policy explains when and why we collect personal information about our members, how we use it and how we keep it secure and your rights in relation to it.
We may collect, use and store your personal data, as described in this Data Privacy Policy and as described when we collect data from you – for example when you complete the membership form.
The Ladies Golf Tour reserve the right to amend this Data Privacy Policy from time to time without prior notice.
We will always comply with applicable UK Data Protection legislation including the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) when dealing with your personal data. Further details on the GDPR can be found at the website for the Information Commissioner (https://ico.org.uk/). For the purposes of the GDPR, we will be the “controller” of all personal data we hold about you
Who are we?
We are The Ladies Golf Tour. We can be contacted via email: caia@ladiesgolftour.co.uk
What information we collect and why
Members’ name, address, telephone numbers, email addresses, handicap details, dietary requirements etc. We collect this data to help organise tournament sand also in case you need medical treatment in the event of an accident.
How we protect your personal data
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.
Please note, however, that where you are transmitting information to us over the internet, then given that data is not always encrypted, we cannot definitely guarantee the security of this information.
The Ladies Golf Tour will notify you promptly in the event of any breach of your personal data which might expose you to serious risk.
Who else has access to the information you provide?
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.
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 as members of The Ladies Golf Tour.
How long do we keep your information?
We will hold your personal data on our systems for as long as you are a member of the tour 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.
We securely destroy all data once we have used it and no longer need it.
