The Yarra Valley Hockey Club (YVHC) is strongly committed to protecting your privacy while interacting with our content, products and services. We want to provide a safe and secure environment for you and your children.
The purpose of this Privacy Policy is to tell you what kind of information we may gather about you when you visit our site, how we may use that information, whether we disclose it to anyone, and the choices you have regarding our use of, and your ability to correct this information. Our policy allows you to choose what kind and how much information you provide to us and to control how we use whatever information you give us. Our goal is to provide you with a satisfying experience while allowing you to control your privacy and to give you a means to voice any questions or concerns you may have.
Collection of information
Information is collected from you primarily to make it easier and more rewarding for you to use our services. By registering as a member of our Club, you will be asked to provide information such as your name, contact details including email address, occupation, family as well as information about your interests. It is entirely your choice whether to respond to these questions or not.
The YVHC collects two types of information. The first type is anonymous information. For instance, we may collect information to tell us that five thousand people visit this intranet as guests today, but we do not know their names, where they live or their date of birth - they are 'anonymous' to us.
The second type of information that the YVHC collects is personal information. The YVHC will collect personal information that lets us know the specifics of who you are such as your name, email address, or postal address, when you provide it to us.
Use of anonymous information
The YVHCautomatically gathers information to monitor the use of our intranets like the numbers and frequency of visitors to the intranets and their areas, very much like television ratings that tell the networks how many people tuned in to a program. This collective data helps us determine what sections of the intranets are most popular and of interest to members and guests, so we can improve the YVHC to assure that it is as appealing as we can make it for as many users as possible. The YVHCmay publish or provide summaries of this aggregate data to other people but keeping personal information about members strictly private in the process.
Use of personal information
The YVHCwill only use the personal information you have chosen to provide us for the purpose for which you provided it. The YVHCwill not use it for any other purpose without your consent.
Disclosure
There will be occasions where it will be necessary for the YVHCto disclose your personal information to third parties. The YVHCmay be required by law to disclose the information, or may be required to disclose your personal information to third parties to provide the service you have requested, for example, to Hockey Victoria, or Sportingpulse, or if you purchase products online from the intranet, the YVHC will need to disclose your personal information to third parties in order for your request to be processed to bill and collect/deliver your products. However, the disclosure will only be made where it is necessary to fulfil the purpose for which you disclosed your personal information. Otherwise than stated above, we do not disclose personal information that you may give us, such as your name, address, email address or telephone number, to any organisation or person outside the YVHC unless you have authorised us to do so. For example, when you contribute to an online forum you may want to publish your name and email address.
No sale of personal information
Under no circumstances will the YVHCsell or receive payment for licensing or disclosing your personal information.
Access and correction: personal data
If the YVHCholds your personal information we will where possible provide you with access to the information. The YVHC will take reasonable steps to correct the information so that it is accurate, complete and up to date.

When purchasing from the YVHC your financial details are passed through a secure server using the latest 128-bit SSL (secure sockets layer) encryption technology. 128-bit SSL encryption is approximated to take at least one trillion years to break, and is the industry standard.
