- Introduction:
Cricket NSW, through its department structure and affiliated associations is responsible for the
management and organisation of the sport of Cricket in NSW.
Following the addition of the National Privacy Principles to the Privacy Act 1988, which came
into effect from the 21st of December 2001, The New South Wales Cricket Association (trading as
Cricket NSW) and its constituent departments and associations (Community Cricket Department, High
Performance Department, Marketing Department, Sydney Cricket Association, NSW District Cricket
Association, NSW Country Cricket Association, Women's Cricket NSW, NSW Cricket Umpires and Scorers
Association) have chosen to publish its Privacy Policy.
This Privacy Policy binds all staff and volunteers in the constituent departments and associations
of Cricket NSW and any breach of this policy will be dealt with accordingly.
The Cricket NSW summary of obligations and privacy principles were developed in accordance with the
National Privacy Principles, which may be viewed at www.privacy.gov.au.
- Collection
Cricket NSW collects information from supporters, volunteers, players and other individuals
interested in cricket in NSW for the purposes of information distribution and marketing of Cricket
NSW products and services. You may opt out of receiving marketing information at any time by
contacting Cricket NSW (see contact details below). In all departments, only the individual's
direct contact and necessary details are collected. Most information received by Cricket NSW
is provided from our registration/application forms with the individual or parent/guardian's
consent.
The information collected from individuals may include their name, street address, postal
address, email address, phone numbers, fax numbers, credit card details, date of birth,
health and medical details (where necessary), playing history and demographic information.
Email is used to provide information on upcoming Cricket NSW events and promotions for the
Volunteer and the supporter club database. Email is only used for marketing with the
consent of the individual.
Cricket NSW only collects information by lawful and fair means without being unreasonably
intrusive. Individuals may choose not to provide personal information requested by Cricket
NSW. Cricket NSW respects the individual's choice, but accordingly the individual may not be
eligible to receive certain products and services as a result of this action. This may include
entry to competitions conducted by Cricket NSW or inclusion in special development programs or
coaching programs administered by Cricket NSW.
- Use and Disclosure
Personal information is collected for the organisation and management of Cricket NSW programs and initiatives. This may involve individuals' details being passed on to:
- our service providers on a confidential basis (eg professional advisors;
an approved mailing house for the distribution of information or marketing resources -
an individual may elect not to receive this type of material at the initial time of
information gathering or at anytime afterwards)
- sponsors of cricket events or initiatives
- other associations and organisations involved in cricket programs and initiatives.
Cricket NSW will not sell or trade the database to a third party.
- Data Quality
Cricket NSW will take reasonable steps to make sure that personal information it
collects, uses or discloses is accurate, complete and up to date.
- Data Security
Cricket NSW will take reasonable steps to:
- ensure that only authorised staff and volunteers have access to personal information
- protect this information from misuse and loss, from unauthorised access, modification or
disclosure (ie store it securely whether in electronic or physical form), and
- de-identify or destroy personal information when it is no longer needed by us or
for legal requirements.
- Openness
Cricket NSW will make available to any interested individual its policies on the management of
personal information. Cricket NSW will also take reasonable steps to let the individual
know, generally, what sort of personal information it holds, for what purposes it holds it,
and how it collects, holds, uses and discloses that information.
- Access and Correction
Upon request Cricket NSW will provide an individual with information held about them except in
certain circumstances. If this occurs Cricket NSW will provide an explanation to the
individual as to why access to this information is denied. For access requests, Cricket
NSW will not charge any lodgment fees. However, Cricket NSW may charge the reasonable
expenses incurred in providing an individual with any information they have requested
(eg search or photocopy costs).
If an individual believes that their personal information held by Cricket NSW is inaccurate,
the individual may contact Cricket NSW and request for the information to be updated.
Cricket NSW will then take reasonable steps to correct the information so that it is
accurate, complete and up-to-date.
- Anonymity
Where lawful and practical, individuals will have the option of not identifying themselves when
dealing with Cricket NSW.
- Transborder Flows
Generally Cricket NSW does not transfer personal information outside Australia.
However, if necessary it may do so where:
- the individual consents, or
- the recipient of the information is also subject to laws or a contract with equivalent
protection to the National Privacy Principles.
- Sensitive Information
Cricket NSW will not collect sensitive information about an individual unless the individual has
consented, collection is required by law or the collection of information is in the interest of the
individual or the public's interest.

This information relates to Cricket NSW's current privacy standards.
It may vary these privacy standards from time to time. Cricket NSW will notify individuals
of these changes by publishing them on its website.
