HOW WE USE YOUR PERSONAL DATA
We will only use your personal data when the GDPR and the law of the member state of the EU to which we are subject, allows us to do so. Most commonly we will use your personal data in the following circumstances:
- Where we need to comply with a legal or regulatory obligation.
- Where we need to perform a contract we are about to enter or have entered with you.
- Where it is necessary for our legitimate interests (or those of a third party) and your interests and fundamental rights do not override those interests.
- Where you have consented before the processing.

DISCLOSURES OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA
Where processing of personal data is carried out on behalf of the Company, we conclude a separate contract with the processor with respect to such processing. This contract is a commitment to compliance with GDPR and provides sufficient contractual guarantees for the implementation of appropriate technical and organizational measures, which ensure the protection of your rights.
In terms of the transmission of personal data to recipients outside of our group of companies, we only transmit data to third parties when this is required by law or necessary for the performance of the contract or where you have consented to the transmission. Under these conditions such third party recipients of personal data may be:
- Public authorities and institutions (e.g., the Central Bank and Financial Services Authority of Ireland, European Central Bank, Financial Authorities or Law Enforcement Agencies)
- Other Credit and Financial Services Institutes or similar institutions, to which we transmit personal data that are necessary for the performance and processing of the business relationship
- Other companies within our group for risk controlling due to legal or official obligations
- Service providers who are processing personal data on behalf of our company . This may include service providers that provide services on our behalf, such as identity verification services, website hosting, data analysis, marketing service, information technology and related infrastructure, customer service, email delivery, and auditing services. These service providers may need to access personal data to perform their services.
We authorize such service providers to use or disclose the personal data only to perform services on our behalf or comply with legal requirements. We require such service providers to contractually commit to protect the security and confidentiality of personal data they process on our behalf. Our service providers acting as processors are based predominantly in the EU.
INTERNATIONAL TRANSFERS
Some of our external third parties are based outside the EEA so their processing of your personal data will involve a transfer of data outside the EEA.
Whenever we transfer your personal data out of the EEA, we ensure a similar degree of protection is afforded to it by ensuring the following safeguard is implemented; where we use certain service providers, we may use specific contracts approved by the European Commission which give personal data the same protection it has in Europe. For further details, see European Commission: Standard contractual clauses for data transfers between EU and non-EU countries.
Please contact us if you want further information on the mechanism used by us when transferring your personal data out of the EEA.
DATA SECURITY
We recognize the importance of protecting and managing your personal data. Any personal data we process will be treated with the utmost care and security. This section sets out some of the security measures we have in place.
We use a variety of physical and technical measures to keep your personal data safe and prevent unauthorized access to or use or disclosure of it:
- Electronic data and databases are stored on secure computer systems with control over access to information using both physical and electronic means,
- Our staff receive data protection and information security training,
- We have detailed security and data protection policies which staff are required to follow when they handle your personal data.
While we take all reasonable steps to ensure that your personal data will be kept secure from unauthorized access, we cannot guarantee it will be secure during transmission by you to our Website or other services. We will take all reasonable steps to ensure that all your personal data will be kept secure from unauthorized access and are aligned to our Privacy Policy.
As no system can be deemed 100% secure, we cannot guarantee the security of any personal data you provide us.
Any payment transactions carried out by us or our chosen third-party provider of payment processing services will be encrypted using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) or Transport Layer Security (TLS) technology. Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password that enables you to access certain parts of our Website, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential.
We ask you not to share any personal information or password with anyone.
DATA RETENTION
By law we must keep basic information about our customers (including Contact, Identity, Financial and Transaction Data) for ten years after they cease being customers for tax purposes.
In some circumstances you can ask us to delete your data: see Your legal rights below for further information.
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.
