What information will we collect about you

Our aim is to offer advice that helps you plan your financial future. To provide such advice, we need to know about your personal situation and your Adviser may request sensitive and private information about you, for example, your income, current financial arrangements, health, family commitments and any legal proceedings you may be involved in. Much of the information you provide will, as part of your application, be passed to the company whose products you apply for and details of how they use your information are included in their data protection literature.

If you are unable or unwilling to provide some, or all, of this information your Adviser will be unable to provide you with advice suitable for your circumstances. We do not collect personal information from third parties.

Real Life Legacy are committed to protecting your privacy. We would like you to become a lifetime client and assure you that we will keep your personal information confidential and secure and only for as long as is necessary. The criteria we use to determine how long this period is can be obtained from Real Life Legacy Data Protection Officer at the address below.

We will use your data with care and it will only be shared in the ways explained here, or if we are required to by Law or the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA).

Your personal information will only be held for as long as necessary and collected for the purposes of providing advice in respect of the range of products and services outlined in the Initial Disclosure Document or Client Proposition Brochure provided by your Adviser. In addition, we will make every effort to ensure that the information you provide is recorded accurately and that it is only passed to companies who comply with the General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR). If it is required to send your information abroad, we will only do so to countries within the European Union (EU) or to a third country that the EU has determined provides an adequate level of protection and where you are able to exercise your rights to access your personal information under the GDPR.

Your rights and access to the information we hold

We are committed to the security of your personal information and we have security procedures in place to protect against the loss, misuse or alteration of information under our control. We have security measures in place to protect our database and access to this database is restricted. All information collected via the website is encrypted. All our employees who have access to, and are associated with the processing of personal data, are obliged to respect the confidentiality of your personal data.

You have the right to request a copy of all the information we hold about you. If you would like a copy of all or some of this information please contact us at our head office, email: [email protected] or call 01249 822 226 .

We want to make sure that all information we hold for you is accurate and up to date. Please keep us informed of any changes to your contact details or any other information which may impact on our ability to provide our services. You have the right to request that we remove or update any information that you think is inaccurate.

Controlling and using your personal information

We use your information in a variety of ways:

  • To introduce you to a range of products and services offered by the companies we are associated with (or may be associated with in the future).
  • To help with administration.
  • To contact you with details of changes to products you have bought.
  • For business analysis and research.
  • For marketing products and services we think may be suitable for you (unless you ask us not to send you this information).
  • To comply with the Law and/or FCA requirements.
  • To verify your identity by searching publicly available records held by credit reference agencies.
  • To prevent fraud and money laundering we may pass your details to other companies, public bodies including the police or to an insurer’s database. Insurance companies can search databases for any relevant information that exists about you.

We therefore process your data because it is necessary for:

  • The performance of a contract to which you are a party.
  • Compliance with legal obligations to which we as the controller are subject.
None of the information gathered about you will be used in automatic decision making.

Your health details

If you apply for some types of insurance (eg. life insurance, pensions, sickness etc.) you will be required to provide details of your health. Under the GDPR, this is regarded as sensitive personal data.

Your Adviser will have access to your medical details unless you prefer to complete a medical statement of health in private. If this is the case, please send it with your application marked for the attention of the “Consultant Medical Officer” in a sealed envelope.

We do need your explicit consent to collect and process your health details, which of course you may withdraw at any time. To provide this consent, please sign below and provide one copy of this form to your Adviser. Signing this form will also indicate that you have read and understood the provisions set out.

Marketing and sharing your information

The information you give us will be added to any other details we hold about you. Real Life Legacy will never sell your details to a third party, but we may share your information with carefully selected companies we are associated with. Therefore, we (or they) may contact you (by post, email, telephone or other appropriate means) to tell you about products, services or offers we believe may interest you. The products and services may not be related to financial services. You can ask us not to contact you for this reason, at any time, by writing to us at our Head Office. This will not affect your relationship with your Adviser.

We may have to pass your details to another Adviser if, for example your Adviser is ill or you need advice in a different product area. If your advisor leaves we may pass your details to another Adviser so that we can continue to provide you with a high standard of service.

We may send your information to third parties that are carrying out work on our behalf. Such as our partners TransUnion.

Much of the information you provide will, as part of your application, be passed to third parties including but not limited to the company whose products you apply for as well as our partners who provide ID verification and credit referencing. For further information on how third parties will use your information please review their individual privacy policies, links to which can be found within our own privacy policy which is available online reallifelegacy.co.uk/privacy

We will hold your personal information based on the following criteria:
