Details of our searches will be kept by the agency and will be seen by other organisations that make searches with the agency for the purposes of credit assessment, debt recovery, management of your accounts, prevention of money laundering and fraud, and statistical analysis.

Where you have applied for credit or where we have agreed to provide credit to you, we will regularly submit your data to credit reference agencies. This is done in order to promote responsible lending, and helping to prevent over-indebtness for our customers, helping prevent and detect crime and fraud and anti-money laundering services, and support other activities such as identity verification, supporting tracing and debt collection.

The Credit Rating Agencies may, in turn, share your personal data with Fraud Prevention Agencies, resellers, distributors and agents, public bodies, law enforcement and regulators, as well as any additional data Processors.

  • account management;
  • tracing and debt recovery;
  • statistical analysis, analytics and profiling; and database activities.

We may at any time search your record with a fraud prevention agency. If at any time you give us or procure the giving of false or inaccurate information and we suspect fraud we will record this.
