If you want to see the detailed version of this, you can read our full privacy policy here, but this sets out the important bits that you need to be aware of.

How we will use your data 

Creditfix would like to provide you with information, including through email subscription to regular communications and mobile telephone, about their products and services that may be of interest to you. 

And we sometimes would like to pass your details on to other carefully selected companies, but we will always ensure we get your permission prior to doing this. 

If you do not want us to use your information for marketing purposes to update you on latest products and services and those from third parties, please email compliance@creditfix.co.uk 

 

Where we collect your personal data 

We will only collect relevant personal information, including where necessary sensitive personal data, about you when you apply to us, and any additional information provided by you or others in various ways, including: 

  • When you complete an application form, contact form or quiz requesting a callback.
  • When you take part in market research, competitions and promotions provided by, or on behalf of the Group.
  • Information the Group receives from each other, from business partners, and from other organisations such as credit reference agencies and fraud prevention agencies.
  • Please note that for quality and training purposes, telephone calls to our offices will be recorded and monitored. 
 

 

What happens to your information when you provide it? 

The personal information you provide may be used in several ways, for example:

  • Responding to your requests, enquiries or complaints
  • For product administration and to notify you of any important changes or developments to the products and services we provide to you.
  • For customer research, statistical analysis and to understand the effectiveness of our advertising.
  • For crime detection, prevention, and prosecution and to keep our website safe and secure.
  • For audit and debt collection.
  • If you provide personal information about someone else, for example a joint application, you must only do so with the consent of the other person. If you enter into a product jointly with another person your data will be shared with the other person.
  • We take the protection of personal data very seriously and we will maintain appropriate safeguards to ensure the security and privacy of the information you have provided.
