Many students travel overseas on exchanges, conferences, and service trips for which it is necessary to provide certain personal information. The College will not send personal information about an individual outside the country without:
obtaining the consent of the individual (in some cases this consent will be implied); or
otherwise complying with the NZ Privacy Principle 11 – Disclosure of personal information.
This requires the College to take such steps as are reasonable in the circumstances to ensure any overseas recipient of personal information does not breach the NZ Privacy Principles. The College accepts this requirement and will seek the prior consent of the individual or their parent/guardian, as appropriate, should a disclosure of personal information to an overseas recipient be required.
