Ltd.

The ways we do this include:

​

(a) limiting physical access to our premises;

​

(b) limiting access to the data we collect about you (for instance, only those of our personnel who need your data to carry out our business activities are allowed access and committee members only have access to the contact details of members of their own committee and not other committees);

​

(c) requiring any third party providers to have acceptable security measures to keep personal data secure; and
