Vectis RFC is committed to being transparent about how we use the personal information of our players, parents, and volunteers. We act as a Data Controller in respect to the information we collect directly through this website.

Your Rights: Under UK GDPR, individuals (or parents/guardians acting on behalf of minors) have the right to access the data we hold, the right to rectification of errors, and the right to be "forgotten" (erasure) from our local mailing lists and records, subject to legal or safeguarding retention requirements.

Purpose of Processing: We use your information to manage club memberships, organize fixtures, ensure player safety (medical alerts), and communicate club news.

Marketing & Consent: We will never share your personal details with third-party sponsors for marketing purposes. Any club-wide newsletters or promotional emails will include an "unsubscribe" link.

Safeguarding Priority: In matters of child protection, the right to privacy may be balanced against our legal obligation to report safeguarding concerns to the RFU Safeguarding Team or statutory authorities.
