How and why we use your personal information

We will use the personal information you provide us with to progress your application for motor finance.

We will share the personal information you provide to us with other organisations involved in your motor finance application.

Where we have permission to do so, we may provide you with marketing material in relation to products and services we may offer, where we do provide this information we will always give you an easy method to stop receiving it in the future.

We do not require your personal data to be provided to us further to any direct contractual requirement with us, however, if you do not consent to us processing it this will mean that we will not be able to progress your finance application. We, at times, source personal data from third-party lead generators. We will only ever use such third parties where they have been provided with consent to provide us with your personal data.

We, along with the other organisations we may share your personal information with, will keep records of your finance application and documents you provide to us, in addition to recordings of telephone conversations we and those other organisations may have with you.

Who will we pass your personal data to

We will only pass your personal data to third parties which need it in order to progress your application for finance. This means we will pass your personal data to credit reference agencies and to finance lenders.
