• The profle information we create by analysing you and your behaviour, through the way you use your account with us and from other sources, including information gathered using artifcial intelligence to analyse combined data sets.
• Information that the law regards as being in a special category because of its sensitivity to you. We can only collect and use this information where you have given us explicit consent or where permitted by the law. Information in this category includes:
  -Racial or ethnic origin.
  -Religious or philosophical beliefs.
  -Trade union membership.
  -Genetic and bio-metric data.
  -Health information and data (needed for some insurance products and to protect vulnerable customers).
  -Criminal convictions and ofences (needed for lending decisions, fraud prevention, anti-money laundering and to meet legal obligations).

(Contract performance; Legal obligation)

The law requires us to verify the identity of our new customers and to re-verify the identity of our existing customers from time to time. This is so we know who our customers are and to make it more difcult for criminals to use false or impersonated identities for criminal purposes, such as hiding the proceeds of crime or committing fraud.

To verify your identity we’ll check the contact details and fnancial information you provide to us with credit reference agencies and publicly available information.

We’ll also check that you meet the criteria to receive the product or service we’re offering.

(Contract performance; Legal obligation)

We’ll use your information to manage any account, product, service or relationship you have with us, in line with the terms of that arrangement and the rules of our regulators. Examples of this are:

• Administering your account including:
  - authorising payments to and from you;
  - keeping an accurate history of transactions and sending you account statements; and
  - communicating with you about your account and your relationship with us, including notifying you of changes to interest rates, limits or charges.
• Sharing your name and some account details with a person or organisation before a payment can be made to your account
• Helping to resolve any problems or complaints you may have, or fixing errors.
• Administering any offers or promotions you’ve agreed to participate in.
• Closing your account.

To do this, we’ll use your contact details, the payment details that you have provided to us and your location data to enable us to verify locations at which payments are made for fraud prevention purposes. If you have consented to it, we will also use mobile location services and your IP address to identify you for security and fraud prevention.

We might also share this information with third parties who help us to verify your contact details and deliver our products and services, such as our payment providers, subcontractors and our own service providers for ATMs and cash management, and other banks and regulators.

(Contract performance; Legal obligation; Legitimate interest)

We have a legitimate interest in only lending money to customers who are able to repay it. Our regulators also require us to lend money in a responsible manner. So whenever you apply for credit (e.g. a mortgage, credit card or overdraft) or any increased borrowing on an existing product, we’ll use the information you give us and that we may already hold to assess the risk to us. We’ll also get information from credit reference agencies to undertake credit scoring and/or other risk assessments of your application.

Credit scoring is an efcient way of making fair and responsible decisions about lending money and managing your accounts. It’s an automated process that assesses how you’re likely to run your account, using information from a range of sources to make a decision (see section 4 “Where we collect information from”).

We use credit scoring to decide: whether we provide a product or service to you; whether to adjust products or services you have (such as increasing or decreasing credit limits or interest rates(s)); to pre-approve future products or services for you; to authorise overdraft limits; to authorise payments from you; and in some cases where we need to recover a debt from you. We will notify you of a change to your credit limit or interest rate based on our credit scoring process, and you’ll have the right to ask one of our team to assess it again.

To carry out credit scoring we use:

• information you give to us about your credit history;
• information about those you are financially linked to (such as your partner);
• information we obtain from credit reference agencies (including, but not limited to, those set out in Appendix 1);
• details about how you have used other products and services you have with us or the Group (for example how you are making repayments on other credit products); and
• information we receive about you directly from other third parties, including when you authorise us to access accounts you hold with other banks, as an account information service provider.

See section 7 "Who we share information with", for more about sharing information with credit reference and fraud prevention agencies.

The law requires us to screen applications and to monitor accounts to help combat the threats posed to our society by terrorism and money-laundering and other fnancial crime. We also have a legitimate interest in avoiding losses caused by fnancial crime such as fraud. We may also share information with law enforcement agencies and other regulatory bodies or government departments to comply with legal obligations (such as tax and immigration authorities).

We may check and share relevant information held by us (such as your contact details and fnancial information) with fraud prevention agencies, credit reference agencies, law enforcement and other government agencies and other banks and regulators for the purpose of preventing, detecting and prosecuting fnancial crime and the funding of terrorism.

To do that, we’ll use any information you have given us, that we have obtained from a third party, or that we have obtained by looking at how you use our services, including name, address, date of birth, every country of residence/ citizenship, personal identifcation (which may include passport or driving license number) your IP address, and information about any criminal convictions. This might include information about your location or your device, which helps to detect and prevent crime and fraud.

(Contract performance; Legitimate interest)

We have a legitimate interest in recovering debts that are due to us if there isn’t a satisfactory plan in place to repay them.

We’ll use your contact details, information we obtain from looking at how you have used our services (including information about your location that we may fnd from reviewing your accounts), and information available within the Group about how you have used services provided by other members of the Group.

We’ll give information to and receive information from third parties where that is necessary to recover debts due by you to us including by bringing legal proceedings in the courts. Examples of third parties include other banks, debt recovery agents, solicitors, credit reference agencies and sherif ofcer or bailif services. This might also include passing information about you to a third party who we have transferred your debt to (for example, for securitisation), and who will then contact you directly to collect that debt. If your debt is transferred to a third party you will be advised of the identity of that third party.

We use your information in this way because it is necessary to perform our contract with you, to exercise our legal rights, and because it is fair and reasonable for us to do so.

(Legal obligation; Legitimate interest)

We have a legitimate interest in making improvements to how we provide our services and to improve the security and resilience of the computer systems we use. We must also respond to any changes in law or regulation that relates to the protection of the information we hold about you.

We may use the information we hold to help us develop and test our systems (including new technologies and services) to ensure that they are safe and will work in the ways in which we expect them to. When we do this we’ll use processes and technologies that are designed to keep this information secure.

(Legitimate interest; Consent)

The range of products and services we ofer (including those provided by companies outside the Virgin Money UK PLC Group) is constantly evolving.

We have a legitimate interest in telling you about our products, services and any new developments that we think may interest you, but only where we are permitted to do so. For some marketing activity, including telling you about the products and services of other companies, we’ll need to ask for your consent to use your information. We don’t want to send you irrelevant or excessive information, so we’ll use the information we hold, particularly profle information, to decide what to tell you, and how and when we’ll do this.

You have a legal right to tell us at any time that you don’t want us to use the information we hold in this way or to withdraw any consent that you have given to us.

We’ll only get in touch in the ways you’ve told us are acceptable to you. If you’ve said you don’t want to see marketing information, you’ll not receive it. You can opt in to, or out of, receiving marketing information at any time by contacting us in the usual way (see section 13 for contact points).

If you are happy to be contacted with marketing, we want you to get the most relevant information about the products and services that will be the most benefcial to you, at the right time. The most efective way for us to do this is to use automated processes to create a profle of you for marketing. To do this, we use:

• information you give to us;
• details about how you have used other products and services you have with us or the Group;
• any feedback you have given us;
• information we have obtained from credit reference agencies (including, but not limited to, those set out in Appendix 1) ; and
• information from other companies we are partnering with (including, but not limited to, those set out in Appendix 3).

We might also receive information about you from a third party and use it to market our products and services to you, where you have given that third party your consent to share the information with us. We may collect your name and address from other service providers for the purpose of providing suitable marketing to you.

Our manual or automated processes analyse this information to decide what products and services to ofer to you and to prioritise the marketing messages you receive by; assessing your eligibility for those products and services; assessing how likely they are to be useful for you; and deciding how likely you are to respond. For these purposes we may also gather information about whether you’ve opened or clicked on an email, the type of device you are using and the general area in which you open the email.

The partners we pass your information to for marketing might also carry out marketing profling using your information for these purposes. See Appendix 3 for a list of our partners and Appendix 4 for the categories of our suppliers. We’ll pass your information to our service providers who help us with these marketing activities.

Sometimes we work with other companies to ofer you the best products and services. We’ll sometimes share your information with our partners, and receive information about you from our partners, to make sure that we give you the best, most relevant ofers when we market to you (if you have consented). See Appendix 3 for a list of our partners and Appendix 4 for the categories of our suppliers.

Sometimes we will use artifcial intelligence to create models to assist in our analysis of trends and behaviours and predict general patterns, for example to evaluate how our marketing is working.

This information may be processed by us to provide account payment services to you and will not be used for any other purpose.

To assess an application for a product or service we’ll perform identity checks on you with one or more credit reference agencies (CRAs). Where you apply for credit we’ll also perform credit checks on you with the CRAs. We may also make periodic checks with CRAs to manage your account with us.

When CRAs do a credit search they’ll place a footprint on your credit fle that may be seen by other lenders and may afect your ability to borrow from them.
