Media Authority

The Canberra Water Polo Academy (CWPA) seeks to use photographic (including video) images of athletes to promote CWPA. The photographs are used for program purposes including official website, facebook and school visits. This may include illustrations for printed materials such as flyers and posters.

Photographs of athletes may also be taken by the media to illustrate a newspaper or television story about CWPA. The CWPA at times also provides copies of photographs of athletes to the media for this purpose. The media is only ever invited into a school when they have sought and gained CWPA approval. The media includes local and national television and radio stations, newspapers, and other publications.

At times the names of athletes may be included in CWPA newsletters and websites and media where it relates to an article or story that recognises their success.

The CWPA is subject to the Commonwealth Privacy Act 1988. The Privacy Act requires that we comply with the Information Privacy Principles (IPPs), which are set out in the Act, and which govern the collection, use, storage and disclosure of personal information.

Both photographs and names of athletes may be personal information within the meaning of the Privacy Act. As required by the Privacy Act, we are seeking your permission for your child’s name, and photographs of your child, to be collected, used and disclosed for the purposes outlined in this letter. You are not required to grant permission - this is a matter entirely within your discretion. However, by granting permission you will greatly assist in the promotion to the community of water polo opportunities provided by CWPA programs.

If you agree to have the photograph published on the CWPA website you need to be aware that the image can be copied and used by other web users and therefore the program has no control over its subsequent use and disclosure.
