My golf club insists that name is on time sheet every time I play at the club even if its only 3 holes.
Is this the case in every club?.
Take your pick;
Article 5, principles
Article 25, data protection by design
Article 32, security of processing
You could even go back before GDPR to look at Article 8 of the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights, which states;
So what gdpr rule is broken?
GDPR is much, much more than that. It puts a legal obligation on organisations to keep information confidential to those who need.
This sounds like a very clear breach of GDPR, if any club member can see information that they don't need to see.
Even if a member agreed to such sharing of information when joining, they could withdraw consent to sharing at any time.
Send a link from this thread to both Seanie and Eugene and after reading it I'm sure neither will have any problem withdrawing their names rather than spend a few hours with you on the golf course.
Well you can see what slots to avoid slow Seanie or have the pleasant nice surprise when you see him waiting for you on the first. You can't have it both ways.
Maybe you should give up golf if you are so worried .
My point is that they don't need to know the name.... Just a slot booked
So you are agreeing with me?? 🤷♂️
This is a wind up surely ??
Of course, they should see one slot taken and the other three free. Same as if you book an open day in another club.
C’mon, we aren’t all as clean living as you 😇
If there is a free slot beside your name of course they do. It’s their course/club as much as it is yours.
I agree with the last two posts that the club needs to know but does the whole 800 members need to knows?
Does slow seanie and useless eugene have a god forsaken right to join me every time they see my name on the timesheet?
I think this is part of it, for insurance reasons incase anything happens (and previously for Covid contact tracing purposes etc). Also some courses have problems with "visitors" sneaking out for a few holes in the evenings when the pro shop closes - easy for members to check the timesheet on the phone to see.
I think there's an insurance issue behind it too, clubs must be aware of who is on the course at a particular time. And be able to look back on records to see if needed. Suppose a month down the line an individual claimed they were injured on course, etc. Clubs need to see evidence if a person was actually there that date
The purpose of GDPR was not to give people a cloak of anonymity to adorn as they choose. It was prevent organisations collating, using and selling your data for their own gain.
A timesheet doesn’t fall foul of this. It’s a dataset that facilitates a club and its members in accurately fulfilling duties. No different to a staff rota.
You probably shouldn't be hiding things from your wife :)
Yes, it's the same everywhere. The obvious reasons are insurance and identification. Eg if someone was playing and not paid their green fee/membership.
Also this isn't a GDPR issue whatsoever. What area of GDPR do you think is being broken here?
The listing of your name and any member is a fairly obvious standard process for plenty of reasons. I don't see a "personal" impact on an individual where it would trump having your name listed on a tee sheet.
I was playing well on Sunday when one of my four ball commented " sure hasn't he been practicing all week"
It got me thinking...
So you don’t like members seeing you playing the game you all play or is it the wife thinking your working but you’ve sneaked out for a quick 3 holes on way home from work. You’re overthinking it. 99% don’t gives a toss who’s playing.
You probably agreed to a disclaimer on your name being used as part of your general membership. If you have a valid issue you can always put it in email to the committee to be discussed formally at a meeting
I'm guessing it's a personal privacy thing more than any GDPR issue.
Everyone pretty much knows everyone in our club. If my work involved dealing with other members, I'm not sure I would be delighted with them knowing when I was golfing. I'm sure the odd tradesman has received the odd snide remark for e.g.
But I can't see any real way around it.
I thought when you're external you can only see if a line is filled, not the names on it.
Certainly the case every time I book an open.
Members can see full details, but not visitors, general public, etc...
What is the gdpr issue? It’s a name who could be anyone. Not like it’s John Smith 1 Main Street, St Andrew’s.
Can every Joe soap see the timesheet names or just members who log in?
You can't just pull up GDPR for every time your name appears somewhere - you know the amount of hoops that EVERYONE would have to jump through we GDPR followed to the letter of the law?
800 plus members including neighbours and work colleagues know when I'm on the golf course.
Ps wife also...
Whats the issue with that?
