How we will handle your personal data and protect your privacy.<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n A guide to how we meet the requirements of the Data Protection Act.<\/p>\r\n\r\n Making sure personal data is secure and properly dealt with is of paramount importance in our dealings with you. It is therefore important you understand what information we will take, why we need it, and how we will process your details.<\/p>\r\n\r\n Who will process my data?<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n Illingworth Mortgages is an appointed representative of HL Partnership Limited which is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority. As such, both Illingworth Mortgages and HL Partnership Limited will process your data in order to provide our services.<\/p>\r\n\r\n What data will you ask me for?<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n In order to fully understand your financial needs and be able to give good advice, we need to obtain information about you, your family, your personal circumstances, and your preferences. Some of the information will be private and may be sensitive, such as details of your income and expenditure, health, debts and credit commitments, legal proceedings and adverse credit. Much of the information you provide will need to be passed on to the companies whose products you apply for.<\/p>\r\n\r\n Do I have to provide my personal data?<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n In order for us to be able to give you suitable advice, we need you to provide all the information we ask for as openly and honestly as possible. If you prefer not to disclose some information, please tell us that you prefer not to disclose it and we will assess whether this will alter or impede the work we are doing for you.<\/p>\r\n How will you use my data?<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n \u00a0<\/p>\r\n 1. The primary reason we will use your data is to allow us to do the job you\u2019ve asked us to do. Specifically, we will use your data to:<\/p>\r\n \u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n 2. We may also process your information in order to meet our legal and regulatory requirements. These may include:<\/p>\r\n \u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n 3. We may also process your personal data for our own legitimate interests. Typically, these would be limited to:<\/p>\r\n\r\n 4. HL Partnership Limited will use your data to monitor and assess our work to ensure we have provided a high standard of service and met our legal and regulatory commitments.<\/p>\r\n\r\n How long we will store your data?<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n We will only keep your personal information as long as necessary. How long that is depends on the type of data and the nature of the work we have carried out. In most cases, your personal data will be stored for an indefinite period as we need to keep evidence that we have fulfilled our legal and regulatory requirements.<\/p>\r\n\r\n Can I see a copy of my personal data?<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n Yes. Please write to our Data Controller (details below) and we will provide a copy of any personal data we hold about you within one calendar month of receiving your request. Please note that we may need to verify your identity before providing the information.<\/p>\r\n\r\n What if my data is incorrect or incomplete?<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n You have the right to have your data corrected or completed by contacting our Data Controller in writing (details below). Please be aware that we need to maintain records of information as it was at the time of the advice or the transaction taking place.<\/p>\r\n\r\n Can I have my data erased?<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n If we have provided you with advice or processed a transaction on your behalf, we will not normally be able to erase your personal data. This is because we are obliged to maintain records of our advice and transactions to meet our regulatory requirements and in case we need to exercise or defend legal claims in future.<\/p>\r\n\r\n Who is the Data Controller?<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n <\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n
