We may also obtain personal information about you through your use of our websites, apps or through the use of cookies on our websites and/ or apps, in particular by recording which pages you look at on our websites.

We may ask for other personal information voluntarily from time to time (for example, through market research, surveys or special offers). If you choose not to provide the information we need to fulfil your request for a specific product or service, we may not be able to provide you with the requested product or service.

We may record any communications, electronic, by telephone, in person or otherwise, that we have with you in relation to the services we provide to you and our relationship with you. These recordings will be our sole property and will constitute evidence of the communications between us.

Such telephone conversations may be recorded without the use of a warning tone or any other further notice.

Further, if you visit any of our offices or premises, we may have CCTV which will record your image.

Third party service providers such as credit referencing agencies may keep a record of any searches performed on our behalf and may use the search details to assist other companies in performing their searches.

Please note that the use of your personal information by external third parties who act as data controllers of your personal information is not covered by this privacy notice and is not subject to our privacy standards and procedures.

Where our use of your personal information requires your consent, such consent will be provided in accordance with the applicable customer agreement available on our website(s) or any other contract we may have entered into with you or as set out in our communication with you from time to time.

 

If we rely on your consent as our legal basis for processing your personal information, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time by contacting us using the contact details set out in this privacy notice.

 

 

  1. MANAGEMENT OF PERSONAL INFORMATION

 

We always take appropriate technical and organizational measures to ensure that your information is secure. In particular, we train our employees who handle personal information to respect the confidentiality of customer information and the privacy of individuals. We regard breaches of your privacy very seriously and will impose appropriate penalties, including dismissal where necessary.

 

  1. HOW DO WE STORE PERSONAL INFORMATION AND FOR HOW LONG?

 

Safeguarding the privacy of your information is important to us, whether you interact with us personally, by phone, by mail, over the internet or any other electronic medium. We hold personal information in a combination of secure computer storage facilities and paper-based files and other records, and take steps to protect the personal information we hold from misuse, loss, unauthorized access, modification or disclosure.

 

When we consider that personal information is no longer needed, we will remove any details that will identify you or we will securely destroy the records.

 

However, we may need to maintain records for a significant period of time. For example, we are subject to certain anti-money laundering laws which require us to retain:

 

  • a copy of the documents we used to comply with our customer due diligence obligations; and
  • supporting evidence and records of transactions with you and your relationship with us,

 

for a period of five years after our business relationship with you has ended.

 

If we hold any personal information in the form of a deed, we will hold this deed in its complete form for a period of 12 years after our business relationship with you has ended.

 

If we hold any personal information in the form of a recorded communication, by telephone, electronic, in person or otherwise, this information will be held in line with local regulatory requirements which will either be 5 years or 10 years after our business relationship with you has ended.

 

Where you have opted out of receiving marketing communications we will hold your details on our suppression list so that we know you do not want to receive these communications.
