Unique Email Addresses in GMS
In order to create an account in GMS for an individual aged 18 or over, a unique email address must be attached to the account being created, this means the email address cannot already exist against an existing account.
It is imperative that the RFU are able to manage records of rugby competitions and of rugby players as efficiently as possible, and in compliance with Data Protection legislation (GDPR) we need to be able to determine that each record held in the GMS database corresponds to a unique person, and that we can manage the preferences of that person.
For this reason, every record in GMS must correspond to a UNIQUE email address, and that the email address is VERIFIED as active. Email addresses that are already linked to a record in GMS can't be used for new records.
The RFU is aware of the legacy data challenge in GMS whereby existing accounts contain email addresses linked to more than one account, primarily children and parents.
An exercise is currently underway to clean up this data and remove email addresses against child records where a parent is already linked, therefore ensuring that an account only has unique email details linked to it. Once a child reaches the age of taking control of their account, a parent will be able to add an email address unique to that child to the child's account. The RFU will communicate next steps on tidying up this email data in due course.
