GDPR has been in the news for a long time. Naturally enough. Because the EU's new data protection law affects everyone who collects and stores personal data. Among other things, it requires new standards in sports clubs. But there is no reason to fear GDPR. With Rubic Medlem, you have everything you need to handle this the way the EU requires.
GDPR, the General Data Protection Regulation, came into force on 25 May. The new data protection law gives you and me as individuals the right to know what information is held and stored about us. It gives us better security, stronger legal protection and greater control over our own personal data. So from a personal point of view, we should cheer for GDPR.
A big round of applause for good routines!
Sport is associated with passion. But perhaps mostly on the pitch, on the sidelines, in the stands. IT, administration and privacy aren't exactly areas that get a big round of applause! But if you hold a role in the sports club, take this to heart: the passion on the pitch is possible because there are good routines behind the scenes, where you are in control. To meet the new EU rules, in December 2017 the Executive Board of the Norwegian Confederation of Sports (Idrettsstyret) adopted a new standard for the processing of personal data and information security in sport, including a requirement that all electronic member registers must be NIF-approved.
IT solution for sports club administration
With Rubic's IT solution for sports clubs in place, you have a system that is NIF-approved, complies with data protection laws and makes administrative work easier. The solution includes Rubic Medlem, an online member register that is integrated with NIF's own solution “Min Idrett”. The solution also has a registration feature with integrated payment, an event staff system for organising volunteer work (dugnad), and the activity and communication tool LagetMitt.
Full transparency on “My Page”
To take a simple example: GDPR requires that we as individuals know what information is stored about us. All members of sports clubs that use Rubic have access to “My Page”, an overview about you. “My Page” gives you an overview of memberships, payments and registrations for events or volunteer work, and lets you edit your own profile and the profiles of family members. Full transparency. Full editing rights. It doesn't get simpler than that. And this is in line with the data protection law. That way the sports club has a good system for handling the administration the right way, and you can spend most of your time on the sport itself. The thing that earns applause and cheers.
