We only allow them to process your personal information for specified purposes and in accordance with our instructions.

7. HOW DO WE MAKE AUTOMATED DECISIONS ABOUT YOU

We may use computers to make lending decisions. In other words, we may use technology that can evaluate your personal circumstances and other factors to predict risks and outcomes. This may also be known as profiling.  The automatic decision-making process considers various factors, such as your income, residency, financial position, fraud and other risk and relevant factors.  We do this to speed up the loan application process for suitable borrowers.

This is necessary for our ‘legitimate interest’ and meeting with our legal responsibilities. If you meet with certain pre-determined criteria, our computer systems will automatically approve and process your application. If we determine that you pose a fraud or money laundering risk based solely on automated decision-making, we may refuse to provide the requested services or financing to you or we may stop providing existing services to you.

If you want to know more about the rights you have about automated decision making, please contact us using the details above.

8. CREDIT REFERENCE AND FRAUD PREVENTION AGENCIES

Credit Reference Agencies

In order to process your application, we will perform credit and identity checks on you with one or more credit reference agencies (CRAs). We may also make periodic searches at CRAs to manage your account with us.

To do this, we will supply your personal information to CRAs and they will give us information about you. This will include information from your credit or loan application and about your financial situation and financial history and data for collections and recoveries management. CRAs will supply to us both public (including the electoral register) and shared credit, financial situation and financial history information, and data for collections and recoveries management and fraud prevention information.

We will use this information to:

  • Assess your creditworthiness and whether you can afford to take the product
  • Assess your eligibility to products or services provided by us or our partners
  • Verify the accuracy of the data you have provided to us
  • Prevent criminal activity, fraud and money laundering
  • Manage your account(s)
  • Trace and recover debts
  • Ensure any offers provided to you are appropriate to your circumstances

If you sign a credit agreement with us, we will give details of your account(s) and how you manage it/them to the CRAs. We will continue to exchange information about you with CRAs while you are our customer.  This includes:

  • Your name, address and date of birth;
  • Accounts you have, including when you opened them and money going into them (if you owe us money, we will also share your balance);
  • Credit applications you have made;
  • If you have borrowed, details of your loan and repayments; and
  • Fraud prevention information.

We will also inform the CRAs about your settled accounts. If you borrow and do not repay in full and on time, CRAs will record the outstanding debt. Please be aware this information may be supplied to other organisations by CRAs.

​​​Contacting the Credit Reference Agencies

You can contact the CRAs currently operating in the UK. The information they hold may not be the same so it is worth contacting them all. They will charge you a small statutory fee.

Fraud Prevention Agencies (FPAs), Law Enforcement and Regulators

When you make an application with us, we check your record with Fraud Prevention Agencies (FPAs) like Cifas. During the application process and after you become a customer, we may share information about you with FPAs to help prevent fraud and money laundering when it is in our legitimate interest.

If we detect fraud, we may stop activity on your account and prevent you from using it. Other organisations may use information we share with FPAs about fraud to refuse their services, finance or employment.

For more information about the details we collect from and share with Cifas, and how they use your personal information, see Cifas’ Fair Processing Notices.

We may also share your information if we are required to do so by any applicable law. For example, if we are instructed to, we may share your personal information with any governmental body or law enforcement agency.

9. USING THIRD PARTIES AND TRANSFERRING YOUR INFORMATION INTERNATIONALLY

We may transfer your personal information or make it accessible to companies who are outside the UK or the European Economic Area (“EEA”) for operational reasons. 

We may transfer your personal information or make it accessible if it is necessary for:

  • the performance of an agreement between you and us;
  • the completion of certain steps before providing the service you requested; or
  • the fulfilment or performance of an agreement that benefits you between us and our partners.

For example, your personal information may be transferred to or made accessible to staff of Gojoko Technologies (India) Private Limited, who are outside the EEA, namely in India, and who work for us.

Where this occurs, we will put adequate safeguards in place to ensure that your personal information remains protected in a manner that is consistent with how it would be protected under UK and EU data protection laws.

If you would like further details in relation to the countries to which your personal information is currently transferred, and the safeguards that are in place in relation to the transfer, please contact us using the details above.

We require all third parties to respect the security of your personal information and to treat it in accordance with the law. We do not allow our third party service providers who process your personal information on our behalf to use your personal information for their own purposes and only permit them to process your personal information for specified purposes and in accordance with our instructions.

10. HOW LONG WE WILL STORE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

We will only retain your personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfil the purposes we have collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, regulatory, tax, accounting or reporting requirements.

Most account records are usually retained for 6 years after your account has been closed.

We may retain your personal information for a longer period if we need to (and it is in our legitimate interest) and/or the law says we have to.

11. YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS AND MAKING A COMPLAINT

Under certain circumstances, you have rights under data protection laws in relation to your personal information, including:

  • the right to request access to your personal information
  • the right to request correction of your personal information
  • the right to request erasure of your personal information
  • the right to object to processing of your personal information
  • the right to request restriction of processing your personal information
  • the right to request transfer of your personal information
  • rights related to automated decision-making including profiling

You also have the right to make a complaint at any time to the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO), the UK regulator for data protection issues (www.ico.org.uk). We would, however, appreciate the chance to deal with your concerns before you approach the ICO so please contact us in the first instance.

​If you wish to exercise any of the rights set out above, please contact us or our DPO using the details above.

12. DIRECT MARKETING - YOUR RIGHT TO OPT OUT

When you apply for a product with or through us, we ask you if you would like to receive direct marketing from us.  If you do not want to receive direct marketing from us, we offer simple options to opt-out anytime. You can update your preferences in your online portal or click the unsubscribe link on any marketing emails we send to you.

If you unsubscribe from marketing, we will still send you statements and important information, such as notices that the law says we have to provide to you, as well as tell you about changes to your existing products and services to meet our legal obligations to you.

13. HOW WE WILL KEEP YOU UPDATED

We will post any changes to our Policy on this page. If we make significant changes, we will contact you to let you know.
