We may collect your personal data in several ways, for example:
The type of information we collect will be informed by the service you require. We may collect the following categories of personal data about you:
We may process your personal data without your specific consent because it is necessary for the performance of a contract to which you are a party, or to take steps at your request prior to entering into a contract.
We may also process your personal data because it is necessary for our legitimate interests.
If we rely on our (or another person's) legitimate interests for using your personal information, we will undertake a balancing test to ensure that our (or the other person's) legitimate interests are not outweighed by your personal interests or fundamental rights and freedoms which require protection.
We may also process your data for our compliance with a legal obligation which we are under.
In sharing your personal data for the reasons set out elsewhere in this Privacy Notice, we may need to transfer it to other Group companies located in Switzerland, Israel, Jersey, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, Guernsey, Malta, Isle of Man or Canada, which are countries which are viewed as providing an adequate level of protection for your personal data as is provided within the United Kingdom.
We may also share your personal data with Group companies located in the United States of America, South Africa, Monaco and Mauritius, which currently do not have laws which provide the same level of protection for your personal data as provided within the United Kingdom. We use Standard Contractual Clauses, as a safeguard, when making transfers to these countries or will do so with your explicit consent.
We may also share your personal data with other companies or service providers that we have engaged to assist us in providing services to you. These companies may be in jurisdictions which currently do not have laws which provide the same level of protection to your personal data as provided within the United Kingdom. Where we share your personal data with a company or service provider in a non-adequate jurisdiction we will do this using a safeguard, such as Standard Contractual Clauses, or with your explicit consent.
If you wish to receive details regarding the companies within the Group or other service providers which we have engaged to assist in delivering services to you or to entities in respect of which you are connected or have an interest and with whom we have shared your information, please contact us using the following email address: ukdataprotectionofficer@stonehagefleming.com
We will retain your personal data in accordance with our Records Retention Policy. Please note that we may retain your information for a longer period where this is required by law or for the purposes of legal proceedings. Where we have provided advice relating to a pension transfer, pension conversion, pension opt-out or free-standing additional voluntary contribution, we will keep your personal data relevant to this indefinitely as we are required to do so by the Financial Conduct Authority.
