For the purposes of the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) and UK data protection laws, the controller of your personal data is the Cumberland Lawn Tennis Club (the “Venue”) of 25 Alvanley Gardens, London NW6 1JD.

It outlines what data we hold, where it came from, how it is used, the lawful basis upon which it is processed, with whom it will be shared, how long we will hold it for and your rights as a data subject.

The Club has also appointed a Data Protection Office (DPO) to manage its obligations under data protection law and this person should be contacted with any questions or concerns you may have. Contact details for the DPO can be found below.

  • Financial information, including Direct Debit details where given;
  • Certain other information which you volunteer when making use of your membership benefits (for example, when making court bookings or entering competitions etc).

How we collect your information
We collect your personal data in a few limited ways, namely:

  • From someone else who has applied for membership on your behalf (for example a family member who has provided us with your contact and communications details for that purpose);
  • From the governing bodies associated with the Club’s activities (for example, where the LTA or England Squash has passed on your details to us in connection with a complaint or query you have raised about our Venue, or when the LTA or England Squash provide us with details of all players who have registered with them citing CLTC as their place to play (possibly in connection with British Tennis Membership and entry to the Wimbledon ballot, or England Squash player membership).

How we use personal data
Personal data provided to us will be used for the purposes set out at the time of collection and, where relevant, in accordance with any preferences you express.

Sharing your information with others
We do not sell your personal data to third parties.

Where necessary, however, we do share your information with third parties as set out below:

  • Our employees and volunteers, for the purposes of administering your membership and giving you access to the membership benefits to which you are entitled
  • Select contractors and suppliers, including our Club coaches, who may provide and administer activities on your behalf (coaching services, league and tournament organisation etc)
  • Providers of our membership management services, including database and booking system hosts (for example, ClubV1 and Payne Automation)
  • Our website and E-News service providers (for example, Startadesign and MailChimp)

For all shared uses of personal data, the third parties are classed as Data Processors, with CLTC remaining the Data Controller.

How long your information is kept
We keep your personal data only for as long as necessary for each purpose we use it.

For most membership data, this means we retain it for so long as you have a valid membership and for a minimum period of six years after your last interaction with us (for accounting, tax reporting and record-keeping purposes). For historical statistical archiving and research purposes we will, however, retain this data beyond this six year period, but you are able to request its processing be erased or restricted in accordance with your rights as outlined below. All such requests will be dealt with on an individual basis and in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

Your rights
By law, data subjects have various rights.

To follow is a summary of these rights as identified by the regulation and how CLTC will respect them.

The right to be informed
Usage of personal data needs to be transparent and readily available for inspection by data subjects. This privacy policy outlines the relevant details.

The right of access
Commonly known as a “data subject access request”, individuals are able to request confirmation of what data we have on them, how it is being used and under which lawful basis it is being processed. All such requests should be directed to the Club’s DPO and we will comply with all requests within a month of receipt. The Club will, however, retain the right to refuse, but will only exercise this right if we consider the request to be unfounded or excessive. In such cases, individuals will be able to complain to the Main Committee or to the ICO, details of whom are provided below.

The right to rectification
Individuals can request that incomplete or incorrect data be completed or corrected. All such corrections should be provided to the Club Office in writing, by email, on the phone or in person, at any time. Updates to the Club’s records will be made as soon as possible, but no later than a month after receipt.

The right to erasure
Individuals have “the right to be forgotten” and request all data relating to them be erased from Club records if they feel the original processing purpose is no longer necessary, if they withdraw consent from any consensual processing, if they object on the basis of their believing there to be no overriding legitimate interest, the legal basis used was incorrect or if dictated by a legal obligation. All such requests should be directed to the Club’s DPO and we will comply with all requests within a month of receipt. The Club will, however, retain the right to refuse, but will only exercise this right in order to comply with a legal obligation, if it relates to a public interest or official authority task, for historical statistical archiving or research purposes, or to help defend a legal claim.

The right to restrict processing
Individuals can block or suppress processing of their data (but allow the Club to retain it) should they contest the accuracy of the data held on them, where they have objected to the processing (see below), where they allege the legal basis upon which it is being used is incorrect, or should they require the data regarding a legal claim, even if we no longer need or require it. All such requests should be directed to the Club’s DPO in writing and we will comply with all requests immediately upon receipt. This compliance will either last forever or until such time as the reason given is disproved or a period of six years passes after the individual’s membership ceases (see above). You can also withdraw your consent where this is the basis for our processing of your data (without affecting the lawfulness of our previous processing based on consent).

The right to data portability
Individuals can request personal data held by one organisation be transported to another, although CLTC does not currently transport data to other companies, other than to third parties as outlined above.

The right to object
Individuals can object to their data being processed and challenge the use of their data as a legitimate interest or if they disagree with our assertion that we are processing in the public interest, in the exercise of official authority or for historical statistical archiving or research purposes. Individuals can also object if they believe they are being unlawfully directly marketed to. All objections should be directed to the Club’s DPO in writing and we will comply with all requests immediately upon receipt. All further processing will be restricted until such time as the objection has been investigated and either compelling evidence contrary to the objection can be demonstrated (such as the legitimacy of a legitimate interest) or the objection upheld. This process will be completed within a month.

Rights related to automated decision making and profiling
Individuals have a right to not be subject to a decision that is processed solely by automated means (i.e. without any human involvement) and which has a significant effect upon them, unless necessary for contractual purposes, is authorised by law or based on explicit consent. Any profiling (i.e. automated processing of personal data to evaluate certain things about an individual) must have appropriate safeguards in place. If Members believe they are being subject to unlawful automated decision making or profiling, they should contact the Club’s DPO in writing and we will investigate the matter immediately. If it is determined that automated processing is taking place, Members will be allowed to obtain human intervention, express their point of view, obtain an explanation and challenge it.

Please note that the above rights are not absolute and we may be entitled to further refuse requests where exceptions apply.

Children
Child Members of the Club are classed as Members aged under 16 on the first day of each membership year. In accordance with Club Rules, all Child Members must have at least one parent or guardian as a Member of the Club and all processing of children’s data is therefore done with parent or guardian knowledge and consent.
