Username = firstname.surname.xxxx

 

Your username in smartclubcloud.com is firstname.surname.xxxx (where xxxx is your membership number) e.g. john.smith.1234.

Your membership number will appear on any invoices from the club.

Still can’t login…..

    • Remember your username is not your email address and you can only get a password reminder if you have your username which is firstname.surname.xxxx.
    • Your username/password would have been emailed to you in 2 separate emails.
    • Please check your spam/junk/promotions folder for emails from admin@smartclubsolutions.com and add this email address to your contacts.
    • You can reset your password once you input a valid username such as john.smith.1234 on smartclubcloud.com.
    • Avoid internet explorer to login when booking as IE is sometimes not supported.
    • If you use yahoo as an email address you may be delayed/not receive emails.
    • If it still doesn’t work email admin@cowicklowltc.com and we will reset your password as soon as we can.

What will happen after Brexit?

With the end of the Brexit transition period approaching (31.12.20) and as yet no ‘adequacy decision’ granted by the EU to the UK. Smart Club we will be carrying out one of the following actions to ensure our solutions continue ‘business as normal’ for our clubs in ROI.

Either

  • Issue contracts based on Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) to each of our clubs in the Republic of Ireland to sign and return to us – the SCCs provide EC approved safeguards that the data can be transferred by the data controller/exporter (the club) to the data processor (Smart Club Solutions)

OR

  • Issue contracts as in A, and transfer the hosting and backup of all data for ROI clubs to a hosting/backup service based in ROI or EU. (If the data was not moved to the ROI/EU, then it would be covered under the SCCs referred to in A anyway).

Smart Clubs commitment to GDPR is maintained and their commitment to ROI clubs is facilitated via comprehensive EC-approved SCCs OR SCCs combined with migration to servers based locally in ROI/EU.
