Dear Members,
As you may be aware, Golf Australia is moving to replace the 25-year GOLF Link system with a modern and more secure digital platform.
As part of this transition, the Club has reviewed its privacy policy and determined to make amendments to ensure it meets modern practice for the use of members’ data and is compliant with all relevant privacy laws. In particular, this will ensure the provision of members’ data to Golf Australia for handicapping services is done so lawfully.
Under the new platform, golfer information is disclosed to Golf Australia’s platform provider for the GA CONNECT system and database, to manage, administer and calculate the golfer’s GA Official Handicap. Importantly, secure storage of golfer data will remain in Australia.
A copy of the amended privacy policy can be found on the club’s website at: https://www.mandcountryclub.com.au/cms/club-constitution-and-club-by-laws/
If you have any questions, please contact Todd Bergerson, Golf Operations Manager
Kind regards
Danielle Hunt, Governance Director
