GDPR  (Data protection regulations)
Apologies for the inconvenience, recent (July 2018) regulation changes mean I have to check you are happy for me to keep the details in your application for club membership on record. As a general principle it is your name, address and phone number, email address and car registration with the type of Midge (Mk1 or Mk2)

The purpose of keeping these details is that members will be able to contact each other and so that I can send out magazine notifications. The web page, which is password protected, has a reduced list with the first part of the postal address removed. My computer, which is also password protected, has the full address and other details like how you paid for membership (cheque, paypal etc) and whether you have bought a club badge, or are looking for particular materials, or selling your Midge etc.

All quite innocuous stuff. There are some individual members pages on the web site and the magazines have any stories you wrote for them. If you change your mind about the details, photos, stories or other information I can delete it on request. The MOBC website is open to the public and should be considered freely available to anyone looking for information on Midges, the Midge club, the people involved and laws about Midges. Members details like email addresses are protected and must not be divulged to non members. Failure to comply will result in immediate dismissal from the club and a change of password.
Here is a data protection notice that you should read before sending me any new details on your application form. It all sounds very serious but is probably rather pointless as members know what details are stored and give permission for their storage by applying to join which includes reading this before applying. Members who applied before the regulations changed have the opportunity to have the details removed by emailing jim@jimhewlett.com 
By the way, I'm not entirely sure what the legal term processing means for us, in practical terms we don't 'sift' the data or do mail-shots, selectively advertise outside products or let outsiders have your details, but it's in the template.

So here's the official notice.
