The data collected on the first registration page is intended to allow other members to contact you. The data (and the purpose for which it is used) is as follows: -

  • Name. This is obvious (I hope)
  • BSAC Number. This is used to give a unique identity to every member whose records are held. Using the BSAC Number (instead of, say, your name) ensures we don't confuse your records with another member through changes in name, address, phone number etc.
  • Address. Is to allow other members to write (as in pen or toner on paper) to you. Your address will be available to those officers who need it (the Secretary and Diving Officer) to carry out their Club duties. Your address will also be available to the newsletter editor to allow them to prepare the (printed) membership list and to put the newsletters in the post.
  • Phone / Email. Is to allow other members to contact you (by email or phone). Your contact details will be available to those officers who need it (the Secretary and Diving Officer) to carry out their Club duties. Your contact details will be available to the Equipment Officer (to allow them to book Club kit out to you) and the Training Officer (to arrange training courses). Your details will also be available to the newsletter editor to allow them to prepare the (printed) membership list.
