We may also monitor activities where necessary for these reasons and this is justified by our legitimate interests or our legal obligations.

Fraud prevention checks

If we determine that you pose a fraud or money laundering risk, we may refuse to provide the services you have requested or we may stop providing existing services to you or your company.  A record of any fraud or money laundering risk will be retained by the fraud prevention agencies and may result in others refusing to provide services to you.

If you fail to provide us with the data we require, this may delay or prevent us from acting for you on your behalf.  Depending on the importance of the data, it may mean we are entitled to stop acting for you.

Links to other websites

Direct Marketing

We can only send you marketing information, notifications or advice if it is of a legitimate interest to you or your company.  A legitimate interest will usually be a commercial reason which cannot be used unfairly against you.
