We collect some personal information about individuals. We collect personal information from individuals in circumstances such as the following:

This information could include a range of information as selected by the Club App Administrator, such as names, dates of birth, address, phone number, occupation, employment details, health information, private insurance status, details of ambulance cover, and other information as selected by the Club App Administrator.
We collect information on visitors to the Website, including information on which areas of the Website are most often accessed and how long visitors visit those areas.

We may utilise “cookies” which enable us to monitor traffic patterns and to serve you more efficiently if you revisit the Website. A cookie does not identify you personally but it does identify your computer.
