Sensitive Personal Data

Sensitive personal data includes information about an individual's health and other categories of personal information which are closely protected (e.g. criminal convictions). We do not generally process such information, unless you have voluntarily provided that information to us (for example, where you have notified us of a health issue that would mean you would be classed as a 'vulnerable customer' i.e. if you, due to your personal circumstances or personal characteristics, are especially vulnerable to financial detriment).

You agree that, to the extent that you have provided us with sensitive personal data, you provided it voluntarily and agree that we can use any sensitive personal data that you provide us to deliver products or services to you and/or determine your fitness to avail yourself of our products or services. Where possible we shall seek to minimise the collection and use of such sensitive personal data.

Credit Checking and Automated Decision Making

We carry out identification and verification and anti-money laundering checks when you apply for any of our products and/or services. We carry out bankruptcy checks on powers of attorney. In addition, should you apply for a credit product (and at any time whilst you are a customer), we may use a credit scoring system and may search your records, including fraud prevention databases at credit reference agencies. We will monitor and record information relating to your credit performance and such records may be shared with credit reference agencies in order to assess future applications for credit by you or other members of your household and for fraud prevention. Any searches will be recorded by the credit reference agencies and will be seen by other organisations making later searches. Any information you disclose that is false or inaccurate will also be recorded by the credit reference agency.

Whenever fraud prevention agencies transfer your personal data outside of the European Economic Area, they impose contractual obligations on the recipients of that data to protect your personal data to the standard required in the European Economic Area. They may also require the recipient to subscribe to ‘international frameworks’ intended to enable secure data sharing.

Credit scoring is an automated decision. The decision on the provision of credit provided by one of our lenders is subject to the use of credit scoring, however is also subject to a manual assessment, however if we were to reject your application solely on the basis of a credit scoring system, you can request human intervention and ask us to reconsider your application.
