Current playbook index title and category plus an internally authored detailed-guide draft
Initiative-specific development wave
How this draft was developed
These sources support general principles for Rotary belonging, purpose-limited personal information and valid consent; they are not an endorsement of the named Birthday Recognition Moments initiative or this locally designed delivery model.
Primary references consulted
Enhancing Belonging and Engagement at Rotary(Rotary International) Used for: Rotary seeks a culture where each person is valued and differences are respected.; Recognition should support belonging without requiring conformity to one social practice.
Chapter 6: APP 6 Use or Disclosure of Personal Information(Office of the Australian Information Commissioner) Used for: Personal information generally should be used for its collection purpose unless a valid exception applies.; A membership record should not automatically authorise public birthday use or a new communications channel.
Chapter B: Key Concepts(Office of the Australian Information Commissioner) Used for: Consent should be informed, voluntary, current and specific.; An individual should understand the particular use and be able to change their decision.
Candidate District material consulted
These records remain draft evidence and still need a human source decision.
Club Playbook - Theme 2 Candidate record 39 Birthday & Milestone Acknowledgements is a related but non-literal concept for current E-063 Birthday Recognition Moments and contributes cards, meeting mentions and newsletter or social acknowledgement. It does not supply opt-in, data-minimisation, channel, non-celebration, fairness, photo or governance controls.
Theme 2 source-assurance wave

Candidate District material remains separate and does not establish this result.
See each source's scope and limit
Enhancing Belonging and Engagement at Rotary Supports: Belonging, accessibility, respectful participation and equitable access principles for renewal and club experience. Does not establish: That a particular meeting model, membership pathway, leadership process or club culture is inclusive without testing with affected people.
Chapter 6: APP 6 Use or Disclosure of Personal Information Supports: The 21 attributed Theme 2 claims attached to this source, limited to the implementation elements and supporting documents named in each initiative-level claim mapping. Does not establish: Whether the Privacy Act or another duty applies to this club, whether consent is informed and valid, whether collection or publication is authorised, or whether the proposed safeguards are sufficient in the actual circumstances.
Australian Privacy Principles Guidelines: Chapter B, Key Concepts Supports: The 8 attributed Theme 2 claims attached to this source, limited to the implementation elements and supporting documents named in each initiative-level claim mapping. Does not establish: Whether the Privacy Act or another duty applies to this club, whether consent is informed and valid, whether collection or publication is authorised, or whether the proposed safeguards are sufficient in the actual circumstances.
What still needs a person to confirm
Confirm the member, prospective-member, past-member and community needs, preferences and consent that the local design assumes.
Confirm which privacy, safeguarding, incorporated-association, charity, work health and safety, food, liquor, copyright, licensing, screening and other duties apply to the club and the activity.
Test accessibility, cultural safety, belonging, language and alternative participation routes with affected people and recognise First Nations cultural authority rather than inferring suitability from the guide.
Confirm every local fact, starting point, cost, role, current service contact, measure, stopping condition and platform capability before the club decides to proceed.
Confirm the authority and current scope of each primary source, resolve login-gated or moved-page references and keep any candidate District material attributed and unapproved until its source decision is made.
The source-verification release gate remains closed.
Checks still on hold
The club board must approve the recognition standard, minimum data, access roles, budget, alternatives and annual review before the register is used.
No membership-system date, age, image or contact detail may be used for birthday recognition without a current, specific member choice.
A private or meeting acknowledgement does not authorise a public post, tagged image or disclosure of age.
Members must be able to decline, correct or stop recognition without explaining their reason or losing an equivalent form of care.
Still an internal draft: source interpretation, local suitability, accessibility, governance and editorial approval remain open checks.
