Data Protection
Notice
Gartmore
Investment Limited, Gartmore Fund Managers Limited and their group
companies will use your personal details and information we obtain
from other sources to provide you with our products and services,
for administration and customer services, for research, for
anti-money laundering checks, for marketing, to analyse your
purchasing preferences and to ensure that the content, services and
advertising that we offer are tailored to your needs and interests.
We may keep your information for a reasonable period for these
purposes. We may need to share your information with our service
providers and agents for these purposes e.g. where you have applied
for investment products. Where you have applied for an investment
through a financial adviser we may disclose information concerning
your investment in these products to that financial adviser.
In assessing your application for an investment product, to
prevent fraud, to check your identity and to prevent money
laundering, Gartmore may search the files of credit reference
agencies. We may also disclose details of how you conduct your
account to such agencies. The information will be used for fraud
prevention, money laundering prevention and occasionally for
tracing debtors. Information used for these purposes will include
publicly available information such as electoral roll, county court
judgments, bankruptcy orders or repossessions.
We may contact you by mail, telephone, fax, e-mail or other
electronic messaging service with offers of goods and services or
information that may be of interest to you for our products. By
providing us with your fax number, telephone numbers or email
address you consent to being contacted by these methods for these
purposes.
If you do not wish to receive marketing information from us use
the link above to inform us of your wishes.
By providing us with your personal information, you consent to our
processing your sensitive personal data for the above purposes. You
also consent to our transferring your information to countries or
jurisdictions which do not provide the same level of data
protection as the UK, if appropriate for the above purposes. If we
do make such a transfer, (for example to our holding company,
Nationwide Mutual in the US), we will take appropriate steps to
ensure that your information is protected.
If you provide us with information about another person, you
confirm that they have appointed you to act for them, to consent to
the processing of their personal data including sensitive personal
data and that you have informed them of our identity and the
purposes (as set out above) for which their personal data will be
processed.
We offer the use of a secure server when you place orders or
access your account information. The secure server software
encrypts your information before it is sent to us. We also take
appropriate measures to ensure that the information disclosed to us
is kept secure, accurate and up to date and kept only for so long
as is necessary for the purposes for which it is used.
We link to a variety of other sites and we display advertisements
from third parties on our site. We are not responsible for the
content or privacy policies of these sites and third party
advertisers, nor for the way in which information about their users
is treated. In particular, unless expressly stated, we are not
agents for these sites or advertisers nor are we authorised to make
representations on their behalf.
If your personal details change, if you change your mind about any
of your marketing preferences or if you have any queries about how
we use your information, please let us know.
This data protection notice may change and therefore you should
review it regularly. We will of course notify you of any changes
where we are required to do
so. | |
