Sail Mortgages Ltd, take your personal information and data privacy seriously, please read through this document to understand how we do this.
During the course of dealing with us, we will ask you to provide us with detailed personal information relating to your existing circumstances, your financial situation and, in some cases, your health and family health history (Your Personal Data). This document is important as it allows us to explain to you what we will need to do with Your Personal Data, and the various rights you have in relation to Your Personal Data.
Your Personal Data means any information that describes or relates to your personal circumstances. Your Personal Data may identify you directly, for example your name, address, date of birth, national insurance number. Your Personal Data may also identify you indirectly, for example, your employment situation, your physical and mental health history, or any other information that could be associated with your cultural or social identity.
In the context of providing you with assistance with your personal advice requirements, your Personal Data may include:
When we speak with you about your requirements, we do so on the basis that both parties are entering a contract for the supply of services. In order to perform that contract, and to arrange the products you require, we have the right to use Your Personal Data. We also need this in order to be able to provide you with fully and properly personalised advice, tailored to your specific circumstances.
Alternatively, either in the course of initial discussions with you or when the contract between us has come to an end for whatever reason, we have the right to use Your Personal Data provided it is in our legitimate business interest to do so and your rights are not affected. For example, we may need to respond to requests from mortgage lenders, regulators, insurance providers and our Compliance Service Provider relating to the advice we have given to you, or to make contact with you to seek feedback on the service you received.
On occasion, we will use Your Personal Data for contractual responsibilities we may owe our regulator, The Financial Conduct Authority, or for wider compliance with any legal or regulatory obligation to which we might be subject. In such circumstances, we would be processing Your Personal Data in order to meet a legal, compliance or other regulatory obligation to which we are subject.
When discussing your financial plans we will need to ask you about your ethnic origin, your health and medical history (Your Special Category Data). We will record and use Your Special Category Data in order to ensure we recommendations and use products that meet your needs fully. For example, health information can have an impact on underwriting for life cover, as well as on life expectancy when considering investments and pensions. We need to be able to ensure that we have sufficient information about these points to ensure that the products recommended are fully suited to your individual needs.
If you have parental responsibility for children under the age of 13, we may need to record information on our systems that relates to those children and potentially, to their Special Category Data. This might be necessary if you had a child with a long-term health problem or disability, for example.
The arrangement of certain types of insurance may involve disclosure by you to us of information relating to historic or current criminal convictions or offences (together “Criminal Disclosures”). This is relevant to insurance related activities such as underwriting, claims and fraud management.
We will use Special Category Data and any Criminal Disclosures in the same way as Your Personal Data generally, as set out in this Privacy Notice. Information on Special Category Data and Criminal Disclosures must be capable of being exchanged freely between insurance intermediaries such as our Firm, and insurance providers, to enable customers to secure the important insurance protection that their needs require.

You will provide information to us verbally and in writing, including email.

We may need to use technology solutions to assist in the collection of Your Personal Data, for example software that is able to verify your credit status. We will need to conduct an electronic ID check to comply with anti-money-laundering rules. This will include a Politically Exposed Persons (PEP) and Sanctions check.
