Member’s Data Retention Periods
Electronic Data
The members date record will be retained for the duration of the person’s membership. After a person’s membership of GSAC lapses, the data on their Members data record will be erased, with the exception of their name and address, which will be retained for 3 years to assist in replying to enquiries GSAC receive about that person’s membership (from other Home Office approved clubs or the Police).

The completed Probationary Membership Application Form will be kept for the duration of the person’s membership. This form will be kept even when the member has completed their probationary period and the GSAC Committee has approved their request for full membership.
It will be destroyed if the member does not renew their membership or their membership lapses.
Members Range Attendance (Signing-In) Sheets: These sheets will be kept for a period of six years. This is a Home Office requirement. After six years they will be destroyed.
Disposal of Member’s Paper Records: Paper records will be destroyed either by shredding or burning.
