When you visit or register with the Ulster Transport Bowling Club website, you agree to the Privacy Policy detailed below. Please read it to find out how information relating to you will be treated as you use our site.

Introduction

The Privacy Policy applies to the whole website and complies with the requirements of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) that took effect on 25th May 2018 and any subsequent updates.

Although the GDPR is only for certain countries, this Privacy Policy applies to anyone visiting the website or is a member of the Ulster Transport Bowling Club website, irrespective of location.

Summary of our Privacy Policy

This is a summary of our Privacy Policy which takes effect on May 25th, 2018. It covers this website and all of the products and services contained on the website. The detailed policy follows the same structure as this summary and constitutes the actual legal document.

This policy tells you what information we collect from you, what we do with it, who can access it and what you can do about it.

Ulster Transport Bowling Club respects your privacy

We believe personal details should be private and only available to others at the discretion of the individual, therefore Ulster Transport Bowling Club will not share information unless required by law or to facilitate authorised use of your account.

We are completely independent, not part of any group and will not sell information to any third party.

We do not send out spam emails or fill the website with a mass of adverts, you should only receive information about content you have subscribed to, including our newsletter and you always have the option to unsubscribe at any time.

Part 1 - Information Ulster Transport Bowling Club collects and controls

We only collect the information that we actually need and some is information that you actively give us when you sign up for an account, post on the website or buy something from us.

If we receive information indirectly, we will only use that information to complete the request that you made.

If you engage with Ulster TRansport Bowling Club on social media (for instance, liking, commenting, retweeting, mentioning, or following us), we will have access to your interactions and profile information even if you later remove it from the social media site.

What we do with your information

We use your information to provide the services you have requested, create and maintain your account and check for unauthorized activity on your account.

We also use it to communicate with you about the products and services you are currently using, new products or services you may like, opportunities for you to give us feedback and any policy updates. We analyze the information we collect to understand user needs and improve our website and services.

We are required to have a legal basis for collecting and processing your information. In most cases, we either have your consent or need the information to provide the service you have requested from us. When that is not the case, we must demonstrate that we have another legal basis, such as our legitimate business interests.

You can decline certain kinds of information to us either by not providing the information in the first place or by opting out later. You can also disable cookies to prevent your browser from giving us information, but if you do so, certain website features may not work properly. We completely disable third-party cookies from the Ulster Transport Bowling Club website, services and products.

We limit access to your personal information to Ulster Transport Bowling Club authorised personnel and will not share information unless required by law or to facilitate authorised use of your account by other parties who have a legitimate need to use it. If we share your information with other parties they must have appropriate security measures and a valid reason for using your information, typically to serve you.

The European Economic Area (EEA) provides certain rights to data subjects (including access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability and the right to object and to complain). Ulster Transport Bowling Club undertakes to provide you the same rights no matter where you choose to live.

We keep your personal information for as long as it is required for the purposes stated in this Privacy Policy. When we no longer have a legitimate need to process your information, we will delete, anonymize, or isolate your information, whichever is appropriate.

Part 2 - Information that Ulster Transport Bowling Club processes on your behalf

If you handle other people's data using Ulster Transport Bowling Club applications, such as information in a News Article post, Match Comments or any other content your add to the website, you are entrusting that data to us for processing. The data you entrust to us for processing is called service data.

You own your service data. We protect it, limit access to it, and only process it according to your instructions. You may access it, share it through third-party integrations, and request that we export or delete it.

We hold the data in your account as long as you choose to use Ulster Transport Bowling Club Services. After you terminate your account, your data will be automatically deleted from our active database within 6 months and from our backups within 3 months after that.

If you are in the European Economic Area and you believe that someone has entrusted your information to us for processing (for instance, a bowling club whose services you use), you can request certain actions from us regarding your data. To exercise those data rights, please contact the person or organisation that entrusted the data to us and we will work with them on your request.

Part 3 - General

There are some limitations to the privacy we can promise you. We will disclose personal information if it is necessary to comply with a legal obligation, prevent fraud, enforce an agreement, or protect our the safety of our users and or members.

We do not currently honor Do Not Track signals from internet browsers and when a universal standard for processing them emerges, we will follow it.

Third-party websites and social media widgets have their own separate privacy policies. Always check the relevant privacy policy before sharing personal information with third parties.

You may always contact us to ask questions about our privacy practices, alert us if you believe we have collected personal data from a minor or ask to have your personal information removed from any area or all of our website. You can also check our Terms and Conditions and Privacy Policy at any time.

We will contact you to let you know if we make any major changes to our Privacy Policy, or in the highly unlikely event that we ever decide to sell Ulster Transport Bowling Club.

Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy statement is made by Ulster Transport Bowling Club and is effective as of 25th May 2018.

Ulster Transport Bowling Club's Privacy Commitment

We ask for only the least amount of information necessary, gathering only what we believe is essential for doing business, or for the specific transaction at hand. We let members and customers know the information we have on them and allow them to opt out of specific engagements.

The goal of this policy is to make explicit the information we gather on our users, how we will use it, and how we will not. This policy is unfortunately longer than we would like, but we must unambiguously address all the relevant cases. We will try and keep the language simple and direct as much as possible.

Scope of this Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy applies to this website and all of the products and services contained on and provided by Ulster Transport Bowling Club through this website.

This Privacy Policy is divided into three parts:

Part 1 – Information Ulster Transport Bowling Club collects and controls

This part deals with how Ulster Transport Bowling Club collects and uses information about website visitors, members, users of Ulster Transport Bowling Club's products and services, and others who contact Ulster Transport Bowling Club through forms or email addresses published on or linked to our website.

Part 2 – Information that Ulster Transport Bowling Club processes on your behalf

This part deals with how Ulster Transport Bowling Club handles data that you entrust to Ulster Transport Bowling Club when you use our products and services and/or share any personal or confidential information with us.

Part 3 – General

This part deals with topics that are relevant to both Parts 1 and 2 and other general topics such as Ulster Transport Bowling Club's security commitments and how we will inform you when we change this Privacy Policy.

When you submit your card information, we store the name and address of the cardholder, the expiry date and the last four digits of the credit card number.

For quick processing of future payments, if you have given us your approval, we may store your credit card information or other payment information in an encrypted format in the secured servers of our Payment Gateway Service Providers.

vi. Testimonials: When you authorize us to post testimonials about our products and services on websites, we may include your name and other personal information in the testimonial.
