3. PURPOSES FOR, AND GROUNDS UNDER WHICH WE PROCESS YOU INFORMATION
We will only use your personal data when the law allows us to. The information below explains the purposes for which we use different categories of personal data and the legal basis or bases which we believe applies to those uses. We may process your personal data for more than one lawful basis depending on the specific purpose for which we are using your data.
Sales and enquiries
We may process your Identity and Contact Data, and in some cases your Financial Data and Driving Licence Data to provide our products and services in accordance with any contract you have entered into with us, and to deal with your enquiries and requests. We do this on the grounds that the processing is necessary for the performance of the contract. This includes where you have instructed us to take some pre-contractual steps prior to us formalising a contract.
Dealing with warranty repairs
We may process your Identity and Contact Data, and Vehicle Information to deal with warranty repairs where the processing is necessary to meet our repair obligations under a contract between us, or the organisation you represent, or otherwise where it is in our legitimate interests in ensuring that we properly service vehicles provided.
Account management
For customer account management purposes we may also process your Identity and Contact Data example to contact you for reasons relating to products and services you, or the organisation you represent, have purchased from us or that you have enquired about, or for sending service or mileage reminders. We do this where it is necessary for our legitimate interests to ensure that the vehicles and service we provide are properly managed.
Marketing and promotions
From time to time, to inform you of, or provide you with information about our products and services, including changes to our services, we may process your Identity and Contact Data and Marketing and Communications Data. We do this where you have requested information from us, or where you have given us your consent to receive marketing information, having opted to be added to our mailing list. We may also do this in some cases where you or the organisation you represent have purchased services or goods from us.
Surveys
Your Identity and Contact Data and Marketing and Communications Data may be processed to invite you to participate in voluntary surveys about our products and services. We do this on the basis that it is in our legitimate interests in improving the products and services we can offer you.
Financing
Where relevant, we will also use Contact Data and Financial Data to arrange vehicle finance arrangements. Any such arrangements will be explained in more detail by a member of our team. We process data in this way on the basis that it is necessary for the relevant contractual arrangements which you will enter into with the finance company and therefore this use of data forms part of that initial arrangement in you taking steps with a view to entering into a finance arrangement with the finance company. The finance company will have its own data policies and statements which you should read.
Occasional processing
From time to time, where it is necessary to do so, we may also process any of the categories of personal data listed at 2.1:
- in connection with any ongoing or prospective legal proceedings;
- to the extent that we are required to do so to keep records, and comply with our legal obligations, such as in relation to tax and accounting; and
- in order to establish, exercise or defend our legal rights, including providing information to others for the purposes of fraud prevention.
Please note that we may process your personal data for these purposes without your knowledge or consent, in compliance with the above rules, where this is required or permitted by law.

We may need to collect this type of data from you to understand your vehicle needs or to put in place necessary reasonable adjustments that may be required to our services. We will only process special categories of data in this way on the basis that you have given your express consent to us to process it. We will apply special security measures to restrict access to any special categories of data we collect and store.
5. CHANGE OF PURPOSES
We will only use your personal data for the purposes for which we collected or received it, unless we reasonably consider that we need to use it for another reason, and that reason is compatible with the original purpose.

6. DURATION AND FURTHER PROCESSING
6.1 We only keep your information for so long as it is reasonably necessary. When setting our data retention periods, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the information we hold, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure of the information and the purposes for which we process the information (including whether we can achieve those purposes by other means). We also take into account our other legal obligations to keep or securely dispose of personal information.
