Appendix A · Personal Data and Livestream Notice

A.1 BDG SPORT ENTERPRISE and BDG VOLLEYBALL CLUB MALAYSIA (BDG) collect tournament information from participants and their team representatives. This includes names, contact details, IC/NRIC or passport numbers, birth dates and years, birth-state codes and inferred birth states, nationality, highest current or former playing level, playing history, jersey numbers, payment screenshots and match results. Match coverage may also capture faces, voices and other identifying images.

A.2 BDG uses this information to administer registration and payments, check eligibility, manage rosters, fixtures and results, respond to enquiries, and livestream and record tournament matches. Team/player names may be shown in public tournament lists, results and broadcasts. Faces and names may appear in the livestream and its recorded replay. IC/NRIC and passport details support identity and duplicate-entry checks. Malaysian birth dates and birth states are inferred from the NRIC and may require correction; a birth-state code does not establish state-team affiliation.

A.3 Information may be accessed by authorised BDG organisers, tournament officials and providers supporting registration or broadcasting for these purposes. Public team lists, results and match coverage may be viewed by other teams and the public. Streams and recordings may be available online to viewers outside Malaysia. IC/NRIC and passport numbers, birth dates, private contact details and payment screenshots are for organiser review and are not intended for public display.

A.4 The team representative must share this notice with every player and obtain their consent to the stated processing and match coverage before submitting the roster. For a player under 18 at the time consent is given, consent must be obtained from a parent or guardian. The representative must keep the consent records; a checkbox records the representative’s confirmation and is not a substitute for obtaining the player’s or guardian’s consent.

A.5 Required registration and roster details are necessary to process entry and verify eligibility. If required information or consent is missing, the roster cannot be submitted; contact BDG to discuss any concern or requested arrangement before entry. Optional information is identified in the form. Participation alone is not treated as consent.

A.6 Participants may contact the BDG tournament organiser at +60126343800 to request access or correction, raise privacy concerns, request limits on processing, or withdraw consent. BDG will assess the request and explain the effect on registration, participation and future coverage. Material already broadcast may have been viewed or copied by others; removal of copies held by third parties cannot be guaranteed.

A.7 Registration and payment records should be retained only as long as needed for tournament administration, relevant record-keeping and dispute handling. Match recordings may remain available as the tournament replay; contact BDG about any concern with continuing display. This notice does not authorise unrelated advertising or marketing use.

A.8 BDG will handle personal data with reference to Malaysia’s Personal Data Protection Act 2010 (Act 709), as amended. This notice states the intended purposes and consent process; it does not waive participants’ statutory rights.
