Confidentiality
CWA Napier has a responsibility to ensure individuals and other organisations can trust us, so it is essential that anyone who has access to confidential, personal and sensitive information understands how to handle, store and share it appropriately so it complies fully with the NZ Privacy Act 2020 (NZPA).
Volunteers have access to information on passengers and other volunteers. As a CWA Napier volunteer or as a Passenger, a waiver is signed agreeing not to share this information or use it for your own purposes whilst in your role or once your role has ended. Confidential Information can only be used for the specific purposes it was intended for and shared on a ‘need to know’ basis.
CWA Napier acknowledges its rights and obligations under NZPA in regard to controlling and processing data and all volunteers who have or will have access to confidential, personal or sensitive information agree and confirm they understand their obligations under NZPA.
No information is to be passed onto any other organisation, passenger or volunteer.
If a volunteer breaches this agreement, then we would investigate the circumstances surrounding the breach before deciding on a way forward, which may include asking them to step down from their role.
Passengers and Volunteers have the right to ask for a copy of any personal information we hold about them, and to ask for it to be corrected if you think it is wrong. If you’d like to ask for a copy of your information or to have it corrected, please contact Liz at liz@cwanapier.nz or phone 027 244 2576.
