SEED Tennis Limited operates community tennis and sports programs through www.seedtennis.co.nz alongside its commercial digital media agency, outdoor banner network, and portal technology operated via www.seeddigital.co.nz. This Privacy Policy details our data practices in full compliance with the New Zealand Privacy Act 2020 and its 12 Information Privacy Principles (IPPs).

2. Information We Collect

Depending on how you interact with our platform and agency services, we collect:

  • Community Members & Families: Full name, mobile phone number, email address, and source campaign submitted when claiming promotional sponsor vouchers or scanning court banner QR codes.

  • Sports Club & School Administrators: Official committee contact names, emails, phone numbers, and verified bank account numbers for community dividend disbursements.
  • Technical & Analytical Data: IP addresses, browser types, device information, and standard server logs for security auditing, fraud prevention, and performance monitoring.

3. Purpose & Use of Personal Information

We collect and process your personal information strictly for legitimate commercial and community operations:

  • To deliver exclusive community sponsor vouchers directly to the claimant’s phone and email inbox.
  • To connect community members directly with the designated local sponsor whose voucher was claimed.
  • To provision, authenticate, and maintain secure access to the Sponsor Portal and Partner Portal.
  • To process authorized payment installments and issue official New Zealand GST tax invoices.
  • To disburse community facility revenue share dividends to sports club committees.
  • To dispatch essential service notices, security updates, and performance metrics.

4. Third-Party Infrastructure & Modern Data Processors

To maintain world-class security and operational reliability, SEED Digital integrates with vetted, enterprise-grade cloud service providers:

  • Stripe Payments New Zealand: Manages card processing, recurring subscription billing, and tokenization under strict PCI-DSS Level 1 certification. Full credit card numbers are never stored on SEED Digital servers.
  • Supabase Cloud (PostgreSQL): Provides encrypted cloud database storage, authentication, and secure lead storage protected by Row-Level Security (RLS) policies.
  • Hostinger Cloud Infrastructure: Provides web hosting and 256-bit SSL/TLS transport encryption.

All third-party processors are bound by strict confidentiality and data protection agreements, and are prohibited from selling, retaining, or using your personal information for their own commercial marketing.

5. Cookies & Tracking Technologies

SEED Digital uses minimal, purposeful cookies and local storage tokens:

  • Essential Security Cookies: Required to maintain secure login sessions in the Sponsor Portal and Partner Portal and protect against Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF).
  • Campaign Attribution Tracking: Recognizes which sports facility banner QR code was scanned so the correct local sports club receives credit and the customer receives the appropriate voucher.
  • Zero Third-Party Sale or Invasive Tracking: SEED Digital will NEVER sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third-party telemarketers or external advertising networks. We do not deploy cross-site tracking pixels or sell browsing habits.

6. Data Security Safeguards & Inherent Risks

We implement comprehensive administrative, technical, and physical safeguards, including 256-bit SSL/TLS encryption, database row-level security (RLS), multi-factor authentication protocols, and continuous server monitoring.

While we take every professional measure to protect personal data, users acknowledge that transmission of data over the internet carries inherent security risks. No electronic storage or digital transmission can be guaranteed to be 100% immune from disruption or unauthorized interference, and users provide information understanding these parameters.

By claiming an exclusive community perk and completing the verification form, you provide express opt-in consent to receive promotional updates, exclusive vouchers, and community announcements from SEED Digital and our participating business network.
