This privacy notice applies to personal information collected through the Sport NZ website (www.sportnz.org.nz).

Collection of personal information

• You may browse and access information within this website without providing us with any personal information.
• We do not collect personal information on this site unless you choose to give it to us, or the collection is permitted under the Privacy Act 2020.
• There are a few places on the site where you can choose to give us personal information, such as emailing an inquiry to us, registering for an event, subscribing to our newsletters or registering for a password to gain access to the Sport New Zealand Facility Data Tool.
• If you choose not to provide personal information to us where requested, we may not be able to provide certain services to you or you may not be able to register for a particular event.
• The type of personal information that we may collect about you will depend on the purpose for which it is collected, but may include: your name, email address, phone numbers, or organisation.
• We do not collect personal information about you if you only browse our website. While the Sport NZ website uses cookies to collect data about browsing patterns and related statistics, this does not allow us to identify individuals or to gain personal information about site users. If you wish, you can remove cookies from your computer (see aboutcookies.org for assistance).
• By submitting any personal information to us, you acknowledge that you have read this privacy statement and authorise us to collect, use and disclose your personal information as described in this privacy statement.

Use and disclosure

• We will only use personal information that you provide to us through this site for the purposes for which you supplied it and/or as otherwise permitted under the Privacy Act.
• We do not share your personal information with others unless this is necessary for or directly related to the purpose for which you gave us the information, or it is otherwise permitted or required by law. For example, we may need to share your personal information with our partners or third party service providers who provide us administrative support and/or assist us in delivering services to you.
• To the extent we disclose personal information to overseas third parties as outlined above, we will ensure that those third parties are required to protect the information in a way that, overall, provides comparable safeguards to those under the Privacy Act.

• You can ask to be removed from any of our newsletter mailing lists at any time by contacting Policy@sportnz.org.nz or by clicking the unsubscribe function contained in any electronic message.

This privacy statement does not apply to those websites, and any information collected by such third parties is governed by that third party’s privacy practices or policies. We accept no responsibility or liability for the content or privacy practices of any third party websites.
• We may amend and update this privacy statement from time to time by posting a revised version on the site. Any changes will take effect from the date the updated version is posted on the site.
