We may use systems to make automated decisions based on information we hold about you. This helps us to make sure our decisions are quick, fair, efficient and correct, based on what we know. These automated decisions can affect the products, services or features we may offer you now or in the future. The following are some of the ways we may use systems to make automated decisions:
Tailoring products and services
We may use your data along with that of other customer in order to study and learn about our customers' needs, and to make decisions based on what we learn. This helps us to design products and services for different customer groups, and to manage our relationships with them.
Fraud detection
We use your personal information to help determine if your account is being used fraudulently or for money-laundering. If there is a risk of fraud, or money laundering, we may suspend or terminate your account and refuse access to your account.
Opening accounts
We may use automated checks to help determine if you satisfy our criteria for an account, including fraud, money laundering and eligibility checks.
Your rights with respect to automated decisions:
You can ask that we do not make our decision based on the automated decision alone.
You can object to an automated decision, and ask that a person reviews it.
If you want to know more about these rights, or to exercise them, please contact us.
All information you provide to us will be transferred and stored in a jurisdiction located in the European Economic Area (EEA). However, we may transfer some or all of your data to countries outside of the EEA which may not offer the same level of protection as the GDPR with respect to the processing of your personal data. Where your data is transferred to such countries either a derogation allowed under Article 49 of the GDPR will apply or your data will be protected by appropriate safeguards, namely the use of standard data protection clauses adopted or approved by the European Commission (EC) can by found on the EC’s website: here
Where data is to be transferred to a group company in a country outside of the EEA which may not offer the same level of protection as the GDPR with respect to the processing of your personal data, we will ensure that the group company agrees to binding corporate rules in accordance with Article 47 of the GDPR. Further information can by found on the EC’s website: here
Where we transfer data to organisations based in the US, we may transfer data to them if they are part of the Privacy Shield which requires them to provide similar protection to personal data shared between the Europe and the US. For further details, see EC’s website page: here
We have put in place appropriate security measures to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used or accessed in an unauthorised way, altered or disclosed. In addition, we limit access to your personal data to those employees, agents, contractors and other third parties who have a business need to know. They will only process your personal data on our instructions and they are subject to a duty of confidentiality.
We have put in place procedures to deal with any suspected personal data breach and will notify you and any applicable regulator of a breach where we are legally required to do so.
We will only retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.
To determine the appropriate retention period for personal data, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure of your personal data, the purposes for which we process your personal data and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal requirements.
We keep certain data for minimum periods, namely:

In some circumstances you can ask us to delete your data: see request erasure below for further information.
In some circumstances we may anonymise your personal data (so that it can no longer be associated with you) for research or statistical purposes in which case we may use this information indefinitely without further notice to you.
Under the GDPR you have the right to:
If you wish to exercise any of these rights you will need to contact us using the contact details above. In the case of exercising your right to access, you will also need to provide appropriate evidence of your identity.
You will not have to pay a fee to access your personal data (or to exercise any of the other rights). However, we may charge a reasonable fee if your request is clearly unfounded, repetitive or excessive. Alternatively, we may also refuse to comply with your request in these circumstances.
We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access your personal data (or to exercise any of your other rights). This is a security measure to ensure that personal data is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it. We may also contact you to ask you for further information in relation to your request to speed up our response.
