What type of information we have

We collect and hold personal data associated with insurance transactions that you may have been involved with when dealing with one or more of our clients.

The type of information is determined by the client and provided by their agent. This can include sensitive personal data and the personal data of children.

Under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the lawful bases we rely on for processing this information are:

• We have a contractual obligation.

We collect personal information from our client, your insurer. The insurer provides the information themselves or through an agent.

We use this data to:

1. Perform an exception analysis

2. To select a sample to conduct an audit of the transaction

3. To conduct a compliance audit of the insurance agent

The information is reviewed against the terms of the delegated authority contract between the insurer and their agent and any applicable laws and regulations.

The outcomes of the review are prepared in a pseudonymised report which is provided to the insurer. This may be provided through a third party system, such as Lloyd's DAM.

What we do with the information

Information is stored in a secure cloud based system in the EU. Information is stored for up to six years, in line with instructions from the insurer, for the purposes of dispute resolution.

The cloud based storage system has retention policies that delete data automatically.

• Your right of access - You have the right to ask us for copies of your personal information.

• Your right to rectification - You have the right to ask us to rectify information you think is inaccurate. You also have the right to ask us to complete information you think is incomplete.
