THE CONTENT OF THIS PRIVACY NOTICE
 
This Privacy Information explains how we use your personal data: how it is collected, how it is held, and how it is processed. It also explains your rights under the law relating to your personal data.
 
 
THE MEANING OF PERSONAL DATA
 
Personal data is defined by the General Data Protection Regulation (EU Regulation 2016/679) (the “GDPR”) as ‘any information relating to an identifiable person who can be directly or indirectly identified in particular by reference to an identifier’.
Personal data is, in simpler terms, any information about you that enables you to be identified. Personal data covers obvious information such as your name and contact details, but it also covers less obvious information such as identification numbers, electronic location data, and other online identifiers.
The personal data that we use is set out in the section below: ‘WHAT DATA WE COLLECT’
 
 
YOUR RIGHTS
 
Under the GDPR, you have the following rights, which we will always work to uphold:
A) The right to be informed about our collection and use of your personal data. This Privacy Notice should tell you everything you need to know, but you can always contact us to find out more or to ask any questions using the CONTACT US details below.
B) The right to access the personal data we hold about you. ‘ACCESSING YOUR PERSONAL DATA’ will tell you how to do this.
C) The right to have your personal data rectified if any of your personal data held by us is inaccurate or incomplete. Please contact us using the CONTACT US details to find out more.
D) The right to be forgotten, i.e. the right to ask us to delete or otherwise dispose of any of your personal data that we have. Please contact us using the CONTACT US details to find out more.
E) The right to restrict (i.e. prevent) the processing of your personal data.
F) The right to object to us using your personal data for a particular purpose or purposes.
G) The right to data portability. This means that, if you have provided personal data to us directly, we are using it with your consent or for the performance of a contract, and that data is processed using automated means, you can ask us for a copy of that personal data to re-use with another service or business in many cases.
H) Rights relating to automated decision-making and profiling. [we do not use your personal data in this way] OR [‘HOW WE USE YOUR PERSONAL DATA’ section below explains more about how we use your personal data, including [automated decision-making] AND/OR [profiling]].
For more information about our use of your personal data or exercising your rights as outlined above, please contact us using the CONTACT US details below.
Further information about your rights can also be obtained from the Information Commissioner’s Office or your local Citizens Advice Bureau.
If you have any cause for complaint about our use of your personal data, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner’s Office.

  • If we are under a duty to disclose or share your personal data in order to comply with any legal obligation; or
  • To our professional advisers including lawyers, bankers, auditors and insurers who provide consultancy, banking, legal, insurance and accounting services. 
    
 
HOW WE USE YOUR PERSONAL DATA
 
Under the GDPR, we must always have a lawful basis for using personal data. This may be because the data is necessary for our performance of a contract with you, because you have consented to our use of your personal data, or because it is in our legitimate business interests to use it.
Your personal data may be used for one of the following purposes:
  • Providing and managing your account.
  • Supplying our products and/or services to you. Your personal details are required in order for us to enter into a contract with you.
  • Personalising and tailoring our products and/or services for you.
  • Communicating with you. This may include responding to emails or calls from you.
  • Supplying you with information by email that you have opted-in to (you may unsubscribe or opt-out at any time via your account settings and/or the newsletter).
With your permission and/or where permitted by law, we may also use your personal data for marketing purposes, which may include contacting you by email and/or text message with information, news, and offers on our products and/or services. You will not be sent any unlawful marketing or spam. We will always work to fully protect your rights and comply with our obligations under the GDPR and the Privacy and Electronic Communications (EC Directive) Regulations 2003, and you will always have the opportunity to opt-out.

 
HOW LONG WE KEEP YOUR PERSONAL DATA
 
We will not keep your personal data for any longer than is necessary in light of the reason(s) for which it was first collected. Your personal data will therefore be kept until you request for it to be deleted.

 
HOW WE STORE AND TRANSFER YOUR PERSONAL DATA
 
We will only store or transfer your personal data in the UK. This means that it will be fully protected under the GDPR.
Where we transfer your data to a third party based in the US, this may be protected if they are part of the EU-US Privacy Shield. This requires that third party to provide data protection to standards similar levels of data protection to those in Europe. More information is available from the European Commission.
Please contact us using the CONTACT US details below for further information about the particular data protection mechanism used by us when transferring your personal data to a third country. 
The security of your personal data is essential to us.

 
SHARING YOUR PERSONAL DATA
 
We will not share any of your personal data with any third parties for any purposes, subject to one important exception.
In some limited circumstances, we may be legally required to share certain personal data, which might include yours, if we are involved in legal proceedings or complying with legal obligations, a court order, or the instructions of a government authority.

 
ACCESSING YOUR PERSONAL DATA
 
If you want to know what personal data we have about you, you can ask us for details of that personal data and for a copy of it (where any such personal data is held). This is known as a “subject access request”.
All subject access requests should be made in writing and sent to the email or postal addresses shown in the CONTACT US details. Please note, we can only provide a SAR to the address shown on legal ID presented.
There is not normally any charge for a subject access request. If your request is ‘manifestly unfounded or excessive’ (for example, if you make repetitive requests) a fee may be charged to cover our administrative costs in responding.
We will respond to your subject access request within 28 days and, in any case, not more than one month of receiving it. Normally, we aim to provide a complete response, including a copy of your personal data within that time. In some cases, however, particularly if your request is more complex, more time may be required up to a maximum of three months from the date we receive your request. You will be kept fully informed of our progress.
