The Australian Division of the Royal Aeronautical Society (the “Division”) is committed to protecting the personal information that it holds. The way in which we meet that commitment is by:
- Collecting only the information that is necessary for serving our members and undertaking the functions of the Division.
- Note that this means that we may sometimes have to transfer personal information to the Royal Aeronautical Society Headquarters in the United Kingdom.
- Collecting and processing personal data fairly and in accordance with Australian law.
- Meeting any obligations that we may have under the Privacy Act.
- Taking reasonable steps to ensure that personal information is kept up to date.
- Ensuring that members have appropriate access to their personal information.
- Providing adequate security measures for the personal information that we hold.
- Establishing appropriate retention periods
- Having a nominated senior office responsible for compliance and as a point of contact for data protection issues
