Who can see it
Membership applications are reviewed by the Board of Trustees and the officers responsible for membership processing. Access is limited to those people.
Our website and database are hosted by a third-party infrastructure provider on our behalf. That provider processes data only as needed to run the service.
How long we keep it
Membership applications are retained for as long as you are a member, and for a reasonable period afterwards for the association's records. Unsuccessful applications are retained only as long as needed to explain the decision.
Contact messages are retained only as long as needed to deal with the enquiry.
Your rights
Under the Data Privacy Act you have the right to be informed, to object, to access, to correct, to erasure or blocking, to damages, to data portability, and to lodge a complaint with the National Privacy Commission.
To exercise any of these, or to ask what we hold about you, contact us through the contact page or our Facebook page.
