 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.

We use third-party data processors to process personal data on our behalf. Such service providers support Douglas Gymnastics Club especially relating to hosting and operating the website, membership databases, class management and payment. These processors may be located outside the European Union and we will ensure that adequate safeguards are in place to ensure the privacy and security of your data.

Please note however that where you are transmitting information to us over the internet this can never be guaranteed to be 100% secure. For any payments which we take from you online we will use a recognised online secure payment system. We 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 us?

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 we are required to do so by law or as set out in the table above or in paragraphs  below.

We will pass your personal data to Gymnastics Ireland for the purposes of carrying out their duties as National Governing Body for gymnastics in Ireland, and as holders of our group public liability, and personal accident insurance policies. Gymnastics Ireland may use third parties for data processing and will have a contract in place that require the third party to keep your information secure and not to use it for their own purposes.

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. We do this for the purpose of our legitimate interests in operating the Club and for performing our services with you. However, we disclose only the personal data that is necessary for the third party to deliver the service and we have agreements in place that requires them to keep your information secure and not to use it for their own purposes. It is possible that third parties may themselves engage others (sub-processors) to process your data. Where this is the case third parties will be required to have contractual arrangements with their sub-processor(s) that ensure your information is kept secure and not used for their own purposes.

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 Club and for as long afterwards as it is in the Clubs’ legitimate interest to do so or for as long 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 except that we will retain relevant personal data in an archived form in order to be able to comply with future legal obligations e.g. compliance with tax requirements and exemptions, and the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.

We securely destroy all information once we have used it and no longer need it.
