PRIVACY POLICY
Introduction
The Mastiff Club of Victoria (MCOV) respects your privacy. We want to maintain
your confidence in our handling of any data and information that is collected by
the committee. We have developed and provided this Privacy Policy to inform you
of our practices and policies regarding the collection, use, maintenance, and
disclosure of your personal data and information.
We are committed to providing you with adequate information so you can make an informed decision whether you wish to voluntarily provide any personal data or information, e.g., your name, e-mail address, telephone number, etc. Our Privacy Policy is described in the following sections.
Log Files
No log files are kept on our web site by us. However, we have no control over
logs maintained by our Internet web page hosting company.
Voluntarily Provided Information
When you register for membership, make purchases from us, respond to a request
for information or make any other request of us (including email), you will be
voluntarily providing personally identifiable information. If you do not agree
with this Privacy Policy, we ask that you please do not provide the requested
information.
Voluntarily provided information is used to send you announcements about our club, updates, and promotional information, as well as to provide the services or goods that you request and give you better member service. We do not share your information with anyone outside our committee (except if we are required to do so by law).
Links to Third-Party Web Sites
Through our web pages, you may connect to third parties' web sites via
hyperlinks, and the connections may or may not be obvious. We are not
responsible for the collection, use, maintenance, sharing, or disclosure of data
and information by such third parties. We encourage our users to be aware of the
varied privacy policies of web sites that they visit.
Required Disclosures of Data & Information
Regardless of anything in this Privacy Policy to the contrary, we may disclose
personally identifiable information, with or without prior notice to you, when
we believe that the law requires it, in response to subpoenas or at the demand
of governmental agencies, to protect our systems or business, to protect other
visitors to the web site, or to respond to an emergency. If you partake, or we
reasonably suspect you of partaking in any illegal activity, we may also
disclose your personally identifiable information, even without a subpoena,
warrant or court order. We may also make disclosures of your personally
identifiable information with your affirmative consent.
Maintenance & Transmission of Data & Information
Although we use reasonable efforts to maintain the privacy of your personally
identifiable data and information, due to technological limitations, and the
risk of unlawful interceptions and accessing of transmissions and/or data, we
cannot completely assure you, and you should not expect, that your personally
identifiable data and information, and any other electronically communicated
information, will be absolutely confidential.
We never keep a record anywhere of any banking details you may have submitted to us.
Changes to this Privacy Policy
Due to changing technological and marketing demands, we reserve the right to
change our policies regarding the privacy of your personally identifiable
information in the future. If that happens, we will endeavour to promptly update
this Privacy Policy. We may also attempt to provide a message to our members
whose e-mail addresses we have, in conformity with this Privacy Policy, advising
of any such change(s).
