HOW WE STORE PERSONAL INFORMATION AND FOR HOW LONG
We will never capture or store your personal information, except where it is captured in connection with your employment or your business organisation.
The safeguarding of the privacy of your information is important to us, whether you interact with us personally, by phone, by mail, over the internet or using any other electronic medium. We may hold personal information in a combination of secure computer storage facilities and paper-based files and other records. We take steps to protect any personal information we hold from misuse, loss, unauthorised access, modification or disclosure.
When we consider that personal information is no longer needed, we will remove any details that would identify you and we would securely destroy any hard copy records.

- A copy of the documents we used to comply with our customer due diligence obligations
- Supporting evidence and records of transactions with you and your relationship with us for several 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 UK regulatory requirements and then deleted from our files.
.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.
TRANSFERS OUTSIDE OF THE EUROPEAN ECONOMIC AREA
We would never transfer your personal information outside the European Economic Area without your permission. Except, we may make transfers for data storage purposes to transferees in the US. This would only occur where we would be able to rely on the EU-US Privacy Shield, or any applicable standard contractual clauses, binding corporate rules, or any other equivalent applicable arrangements that would be acceptable to ICO.
