Last updated 11th Apr 2022

World Gay Boxing Championships Pte Ltd (hereinafter referred to as "WGBC") takes your privacy seriously. Please read the following Privacy Policy carefully to learn more about WGBC's use of your personal identifying information that WGBC collects when you visit WGBC's official website at www.wgbc.org.au (hereinafter referred to as: the “Website”). WGBC reserves the right to change this Privacy Policy at any time without notice to you. You are therefore responsible for regularly reviewing this Privacy Policy.

WHAT THIS PRIVACY POLICY COVERS

This Privacy Policy covers WGBC's treatment of personal identifying information that WGBC collects when you are on the Website and when you use services on the Website, as described in this Privacy Policy. This Privacy Policy also covers WGBC's treatment of any personal identifying information that WGBC's business partners share with WGBC unless otherwise stated.

This Privacy Policy does not apply to the practices of any companies or legal entities that WGCB does not own or control or to any persons that WGBC does not employ or manage, including without limitation third-party advertisers or sponsors to whom you provide information. WGBC is not responsible for privacy policies or practices of other websites to which you choose to link from the Website, and WGBC encourages you to review the privacy policies of those other websites so you can understand how they collect, use and share information.

INFORMATION COLLECTION AND USE

WGBC does not collect personal identifying information when you access the Website homepage and browse the Website without disclosing your personal data except as described in this Privacy Policy or the relevant part of the Website and except cookies (see below under “cookies”).

WGBC collects personal identifying information when you register on the Website, when you use certain products or services on the Website and when you enter promotions, sweepstakes or similar services sponsored by WGBC or its business partners. WGBC may also receive personal identifying information from its business partners.

If registration required, WGBC may request your name, email address, and some other personal information. Once you register with WGBC and/or sign in to our products or services, you are not anonymous to WGBC and the information provided will be held by WGBC.

In the event that registration or sign in occurs via Facebook authentication services (Facebook account), WGBC may receive some information from Facebook, but you remain solely responsible for your whole relationship with Facebook, including, without limitation, any content on the Facebook website.

In case you terminate your membership with Facebook and/or terminate the links between Facebook and our Website, WGBC will delete all data received from Facebook concerning you if you ask WGBC to do so. You can do so using the same easy way as for the ability to access your personal identifying information as defined in this Policy. Further, Facebook may require WGBC to delete data received from Facebook API in case of violation of their terms.

If Facebook will disable any links to our website, WGBC will delete all your data received through the use of the Facebook API, unless it is a basic account information or WGBC have received explicit consent from you to retain your data.

WGBC also automatically receives and records information on our server logs from your browser including your Internet Protocol address (IP address), which identifies your computer, WGBC's cookies information and the page you requested.

WGBC uses information collected for three general purposes: for technical administration of the Website, for research and development to achieve and maintain a high service level and for customer information (to customise the content you see, to fulfill your request for certain products and services and to contact you about specials and new products and services).

INFORMATION SHARING AND DISCLOSURE

WGBC will not sell or rent your personal identifying information without your consent. WGBC may send personal identifying information about you to third parties when:

  • WGBC has your consent to share the information;

  • WGBC needs to share your information to provide the product or service you have requested;

  • WGBC needs to send the information to third parties who work on behalf of WGBC to provide a product or service to you (unless otherwise stated so, these third parties do not have any rights to use the personal identifying information WGBC provides to them beyond what is necessary to provide a product or service to you);

  • WGBC responds to courts or authorities;

  • WGBC finds that your actions on the Website violate WGBC Website Terms and Conditions of Use or any other WGBC's guidelines or rules applicable for specific services; or

  • WGBC finds that it is necessary, as determined in WGBC's sole discretion, to investigate, prevent or take action regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud, emergency situations involving potential threats to the physical safety of any persons, violations to WGBC's terms of use or as otherwise required by law.

 

COOKIES

WGBC may set and access WGBC's cookies on your computer. A cookie is a small amount of data, which often includes an anonymous unique identifier that is sent to your browser from a website’s computer and stored on your computer’s hard drive. We use cookies to help give you the best possible browsing experience. By continuing to use the Website you are accepting our use of cookies.

WGBC uses its own cookies for number of purposes, mainly to:

  • access your information when you “sign in”, so that we can provide you with customized content;

  • keep track of preferences you specify while you are using WGBC services;

  • estimate and report our total audience size and traffic;

  • conduct research and development to improve the Website contents and services and achieve and maintain a high service level.

 

WGBC may allow third parties that are presenting promotions or researching users response to advertisements on some of our pages to set and access their own cookies on your computer. Third parties’ use of their cookies is subject to their own privacy policies and not this one.

SECURITY

If you communicate with WGBC by email, you should note that the secrecy of Internet email is uncertain. By sending sensitive or confidential email messages or information which are not encrypted you accept the risk of such uncertainty and possible lack of confidentiality over the Internet. In certain areas, WGBC uses industry standard SSL encryption to protect data transmissions.

Generally, WGBCtakes precautions to safeguard your personal information against loss, theft, and misuse, as well as against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction.

CHANGES IN THIS PRIVACY POLICY

This policy may be amended from time to time. If we amend the Privacy Policy in any way we will place an updated version on this page of the Website. Regularly reviewing this page ensures that you are always aware of what information we collect, how we use it and under what circumstances, if any, we will share it with other parties. If we make any substantial changes in the way we use your personal information we will notify you by posting an announcement on the Website.
