Information obtained as part of the grants and loans process may be used by Council to communicate with applicants about future community funding opportunities, and to inform the community about successful funding granted and promote funding schemes.
The Privacy Act 2020 gives you rights to request access to and correction of any personal information we hold about you. Likewise, if you wish to opt out of receiving grants communication from Council please let us know by emailing funding@wdc.govt.nz.
