FSL Privacy Policy
Please note that by continuing to use this website, you agree to the terms and conditions in the Privacy Policy below.
Fiduciary Settlements Limited (“FSL”) is committed to ensuring that your privacy is protected. This Privacy Policy for www.fiduciarysettlements.com (the “Site”) explains how we use the information we collect about you, how you can instruct us if you prefer to limit the use of that information, and procedures that we have in place to safeguard your privacy. The Site is operated by FSL (‘we’, ‘us’ and ‘our’). For the purposes of the Data Protection Act 1998, we are the data controller.
We are committed to protecting your privacy online. We appreciate that you may not want the personal information that you provide to us to be distributed indiscriminately and here we explain how we collect information, what we do with it and what controls you have.
1. Data Protection Act 1998 (the Act)
FSL takes the security and privacy of those of its contacts about which it holds personal information extremely seriously. FSL follows strict security procedures in the storage and disclosure of personal information given to us in order to prevent unauthorised access. Personal data is held on our contacts and administration database either because of work we have undertaken or are currently engaged in, or because our clients have indicated that they would be interested in receiving material from us about our business and services. To that end we hold client contact details and the history of our client relationship. This allows us to manage our client relationships effectively and target items of interest so that clients do not receive unwanted material through the post.
You have a legal right under the Act to a copy of all the personal information about you held by us. On request, we will provide you with a copy of this information subject to a fee not exceeding GBP10. You also have a right to correct any errors in that information. As mentioned in our Privacy Statement, you have a right to prevent the use of your personal information for direct marketing purposes.
FSL does not sell, rent or deal in the personal information we hold. Information may, in the ordinary course of business, move between different divisions in the Cording Real Estate Group or to our contractors, which may involve the transfer of data outside the European Economic Area.
2. Your consent
Because the Internet infrastructure is global, the information that you provide may be transferred to countries outside the European Economic Area that do not have similar data protection legislation, during use. However, we have taken the steps outlined below to try to improve the security of your information.
