This information would be required to ensure the safety of members attending Aberdeen Diving Club.

Our lawful basis for processing health information relating to COVID-19 is:

We may need to process this health information:

  • for reasons of public interest in the area of public health, including protecting against serious cross-border threats to health where we have a legal duty of confidentiality to you; and/or

Information we may collect about you

Where a case of COVID-19 is recorded within the club, your personal information will not be shared with other members directly, however members will be advised that a case has occurred, whilst keeping personal information anonymous as far as possible.
