Privacy

Privacy policy

How we collect, use and look after your personal data — and the rights you have over it.

This privacy notice explains how Exminster Golf Centre (“we”, “us”, “our”) collects and uses your personal data when you use our website, book a tee time, make an enquiry or visit us. We are the data controller for the information described here, and we process your data in line with UK data protection law (the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018).

What data we collect

  • Bookings. Tee times are booked through our third-party booking provider, BRS Golf (BRS Golf). When you book, your details (such as name, contact details and payment information) are collected and processed through their portal, not directly by this website.
  • Contact form & enquiries. If you contact us through the website, by email or by phone, we collect the details you provide — typically your name, email address, phone number and the content of your message.
  • Membership enquiries. If you enquire about or apply for membership, we collect the information needed to process your enquiry and, where relevant, your application.

Lawful basis for processing

We rely on the following lawful bases under UK GDPR:

  • Contract — to take and fulfil bookings, and to administer memberships.
  • Legitimate interests — to respond to your enquiries and to run the centre efficiently.
  • Consent — where you have chosen to receive information from us; you can withdraw consent at any time.
  • Legal obligation — where we are required to retain certain records.

How we use your data

We use your information to take and manage bookings, respond to enquiries, administer memberships, provide the services you’ve asked for, and meet our legal and accounting obligations. We do not sell your personal data, and we do not use it for automated decision-making or profiling.

Third parties

We share data only where necessary to provide our services. Our main third-party processor is BRS Golf (BRS Golf), which operates the online booking portal. Their handling of your data is governed by their own privacy policy. We may also share data where we are legally required to do so.

Cookies

This website does not set tracking or advertising cookies. Where we use cookies, they are limited to those strictly necessary for the site to function. Please note that our third-party booking portal (BRS Golf) may set its own cookies when you make a booking; these are controlled by BRS Golf and covered by their policy.

Data retention

We keep personal data only for as long as necessary for the purpose it was collected, to provide our services, and to meet legal, accounting or reporting requirements. When data is no longer needed, we securely delete or anonymise it.

Your rights

Under UK GDPR you have the right to access the personal data we hold about you, to ask us to correct inaccurate data, to request erasure, to restrict or object to processing, and to data portability where applicable. You also have the right to withdraw consent at any time and to complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) at ico.org.uk.
