The Mercedes-Benz Club Ltd, referred to as the “Club” understands and accepts its obligations under General Data Protection Regulations, referred to as the “GDPR”. These Policies and Procedures are provided to ensure that the Club’s Directors and Officials understand these obligations and abide by the principles of Data Protection set out below:-

As the Covid-19 restrictions are starting to be eased in the UK and Ireland, the Directors realise that members will be very keen to know when they can attend their local pub meetings and other Club events. The Board would like to state that whilst they note the Governments of the UK, Ireland and the devolved nations are all adjusting their lockdown measures in different ways and with varying timescales, there is still one overarching and consistent message; they all currently prohibit large gatherings. Therefore, at its meeting on Sunday, 5th July, the Board of Directors agreed to maintain its position that all pub meetings and Club events remain cancelled until further notice. However, the Board acknowledges the situation could change when government ministers review restrictions over the coming months and the Directors will make appropriate announcements and take the necessary next steps. The Directors would like to thank you for your patience and understanding and they will continue to review this position regularly. Please be assured the Board will do all they can to ensure that as soon as it is safe to do so, pub meetings and other Club events will be resumed.
