This website is owned and operated by Freedom Insurance ("Freedom Insurance", "our", "we" or "us"). Freedom Insurance is the controller of all personal information collected on this website.
Freedom Insurance believe strongly in protecting the privacy of all website users ("you", "yours") and this notice sets out how we use your personal data.
By registering on this site, you consent to the collection, use and transfer of your personal information under the terms of this privacy policy.
WHAT DATA ("PERSONAL INFORMATION") DO WE GATHER FROM YOU?
We gather personal information such as first and last names, telephone number and email addresses that you provide voluntarily when you fill in appropriate sections of our website. For example when you complete our contact us section, you provide us with personal information which we hold and use for the purposes set out in the next section.
USE OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION
Our main aim in gathering your personal information is to provide you with a customised service.
If you fill your details in our contact us section we use your personal information in order that we can contact you and respond to any questions and needs that you may have. We use your personal information so that we can carry out your requests.
We may also use aggregate personal information and statistics for the purposes of monitoring website usage in order to help us develop the website and our services and may provide such aggregate personal information to third parties. These statistics will not include any data that can be used to identify any individual.
If, at some time in the future, we wish to use your personal data in ways other than those set out in this privacy notice, then we will notify you about this and seek your permission to do so.
SHARING OF PERSONAL INFORMATION
We may share personal information within the Freedom Insurance family ("Freedom Insurance Family"); by this expression, we mean the Freedom Insurance group and each and any of its associates. The Freedom Insurance Family will process your personal information in accordance with this privacy policy and all privacy and communications legislation
Those selected companies are those that provide technical assistance and support and perform other functions to support our marketing activities.
All selected companies may have access to personal information if needed to perform such functions, but will only be permitted by us to use such personal information for the purpose of performing that function (which may include one to which you have expressly given your consent) and not for any other purpose.
We do not currently envisage our wishing to transfer personal information about you outside of the European Economic Area, but in the unlikely event we should wish to do so in future, we will only do so to the extent that it is permitted under all privacy and communications legislation applicable within England and Ireland. Of course if we need your specific and express consent to do this, we will obtain it before transferring any personal information.
In all cases, any use of your personal information by the Freedom Insurance Family which has been instigated by us (as opposed, for example, to a promotional partner), will comply with this privacy policy.
Occasionally, with your permission and depending on the purpose for and context in which you gave that permission, we will send to you by e-mail or SMS text message marketing information and news. This may include our sending to you marketing information for the products or services of a promotional partner on that partner's behalf.
However, in every case, if you do not elect to receive such communications or if you elect to discontinue receiving them, then we will not send or will cease sending them to you. Also, we reserve the right to use or disclose any personal information as needed to satisfy any law, regulation or legal request, to protect the integrity of the site, to fulfil your requests, or to cooperate in any law enforcement or regulatory investigation. Save for this, we do not sell, transfer or disclose personal information we have collected from you in connection with our web site activities, to third parties outside the Freedom Insurance Family.
Please note that if we are, in turn, a promotional partner of an unrelated company (for example where we are not asking you to submit any personal information to us but are simply providing personal information on our site) and a link exists to that other company's web site where one must visit to take part in that company's promotion, offer or other activity, then the privacy policy of that other company will apply instead of ours.
Whilst we make every effort only to tie-in with reputable companies which have a similar high regard for your privacy, you should make sure you are aware of what their privacy policies say, as we are not responsible for the policies and practices of other companies, including those of other members of the Freedom Insurance Family.
If, in the future, a third party acquires Freedom Insurance or substantially all of its assets (whether by merger, acquisition, reorganisation or otherwise) customer data, including personal information, may well be one of the transferred assets.
