The Data Protection Act requires all personal and sensitive information to be viewed in the strictest confidence and only be used in circumstances of which you will be aware. We will treat past and present client’s personal information as private and confidential.
Absolutely no information about our clients will be disclosed to anyone unless
- We are legally compelled to do so
- Where disclosure is required to protect our interest
- Where there is a duty to the public to disclose
- Where disclosure is made at your request or with your consent(Consent does not need to be in writing if the service is provided over the telephone)
We may on occasions employ agents and sub contractors to process information on our behalf. The same duty of confidentiality and security will apply to our agents and sub contractors and all processing will only be carried out under our control and instruction and will be supported by written contract.

Research and statistical analysis
We may use your details when reviewing and understanding the needs of our clients and understanding business trends in order to improve the level of service we provide.
Protecting our customers
We will always do our upmost to protect you from entering into any agreement that may not be in your best interest. When you apply for credit our funders will use a process known as Credit Scoring. This process helps to assess your application to ensure that you are able to re-pay the borrowing comfortably.
In considering any application your record at Credit Reference Agencies will be searched. The details of our search and your application will be added to your record with the Credit Reference Agencies along with details of your agreement with us, the payments you make under it and any defaults or failure to keep to its terms.
We will check your details with fraud prevention agencies and should you provide us with false information and we suspect fraud, we will record this.
If you have experienced problems obtaining credit we recommend you request a copy of your credit file from the Credit Reference Agencies. They will charge you for this service.
