It is in our legitimate interests to manage risk and ensure we are charging appropriate premiums.<\/p>\n\n\n\n HOW LONG WILL WE KEEP YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION FOR? To determine the appropriate retention period for personal data, we consider the amount, nature and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure of your personal data, the purposes for which we process your personal data and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal, regulatory, tax, accounting or other requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In some circumstances we will anonymise your personal data (so that it can no longer be associated with you) for research or statistical purposes, in which case we may use this information indefinitely without further notice to you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n YOUR RIGHTS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Sometimes we will not be able to stop using your personal information when you ask us to (e.g. where we need to use it because the law requires us to do so or we need to retain the information for regulatory purposes).<\/p>\n\n\n\n In other cases, if we stop using your personal information, we will not be able to provide services to you, such as administering an insurance policy or servicing a claim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access your personal data (or to exercise any of your other rights). This is a security measure to ensure that personal data is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it. We may also contact you to ask you for further information in relation to your request to speed up our response.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You will not have to pay a fee to access your personal data (or to exercise any of the other rights). However, we may charge a reasonable fee if your request is clearly unfounded, repetitive or excessive. Alternatively, we could refuse to comply with your request in these circumstances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We will tell you if we are unable to comply with your request, or how your request might impact you or others, when you contact us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Our Legal Department is responsible for responding to questions about this Privacy Notice or to your requests to exercise your rights which are set out above.
