It also describes your data protection rights, including a right to object to some of the processing which we carry out. More information about your rights, and how to exercise them, is set out in the ‘What rights do you have?’ section.

WHC uses your personal data to manage and administer your membership and your involvement with its teams and the club, and to keep in contact with you for these purposes.

Data is collected via our website that is hosted on the Pitchero system and as such your data is also shared with them. Our Pitchero website and its systems are General Data Protection Regulation (EU) 2016/679 compliant and have been approved for use by England Hockey, which is the governing body of WHC.

Amongst the data we collect from you may be medical (including injury) information. We will hold this where you (or your parent/guardian) have given consent, so that we can ensure we are aware of your condition and that you are supported appropriately.

Where you work in a particular role for WHC, you may be required to undergo a Disclosure & Barring Service (DBS) check using the England Hockey procedure.

What information do we collect?

WHC collects and processes personal data from you or your parent when you join and when we carry out annual renewals of your membership. This includes:

• your name
• your gender
• your date of birth
• your home address, email address and phone number
• your passport and NI details, where we have to check your eligibility or ability to volunteer or work for us
• your type of membership and involvement in particular teams, or any key role you may have been allocated in WHC (e.g. Team Captain)
• your payment and/or bank account details, where you provide these to pay for membership, subscriptions, merchandise, competitions or courses
• your marketing preferences, including any consents you have given us
• your medical conditions or disability, where you provide this to us with your consent (or your parent’s consent) to ensure we are aware of any support we may need to provide to you
• your emergency contact details of your next of kin, parent or guardian.

Some information will be generated as part of your involvement with us, in particular data about your performance, involvement in particular matches in match reports and details of any disciplinary issues or incidents you may be involved in on and off the pitch, such as within health and safety records.

What information do we receive from third parties?

Sometimes, we receive information about you from third parties (e.g. if you are a child) we may be given personal data about you by your parents.

We may receive information relating to your existing registrations with other clubs, regulatory bodies or disciplinary history from England Hockey. Additionally, for certain role holders or those working with children, we may receive information from the DBS and England Hockey on the status of any DBS check you have been required to take.

How do we use this information, and what is the legal basis for this use?

We process this personal data for the following purposes:

Who will we share this data with, where and when?

Data may also be shared with regulatory bodies such as England Hockey, umpiring and league associations (e.g. MBBO) where match day reports, team sheets or other documents are submitted, as a requirement of these organisation rules and regulations.

Some limited information may be shared with other stakeholders in hockey, such as other hockey clubs, constituent bodies, referee societies, league associations, so that they can maintain appropriate records and assist us in organising matches and administering the game.

Personal data may be shared with government authorities and/or law enforcement officials if required for the purposes above, if mandated by law or if required for the legal protection of our or the England Hockey’s legitimate interests in compliance with applicable laws.

Personal data will also be shared with third party service providers, who will process it on our behalf for the purposes identified above. Such third parties include Pitchero the provider of our website.

What rights do you have?

You have the right to ask us for: (a) a copy of your personal data (b) to correct, delete or restrict (stop any active) processing of your personal data (c) to obtain the personal data you provide to us for a contract.

In addition, you can object to the processing of your personal data in some circumstances (in particular, where we don’t have to process the data to meet a contractual or other legal requirement, or where we are using the data for direct marketing).

These rights may be limited, such as: (a) where fulfilling your request it would reveal personal data about another person (b) if you ask us to delete information which we are required by law to keep (c) have compelling legitimate interests in keeping.

We will inform you which information is mandatory when it is collected. Some information is optional, particularly information such as your medical information. If this is not provided, we may not be able to provide you with appropriate assistance, services or support.
