Wherever possible, we will collect your information directly from you should you wish to apply for finance. We may obtain personal information about you from a third party, such as your accountant or a credit reporting body, for a particular purpose. Wherever possible we will tell you who we need to contact and why.

We may also collect information from you if you choose to use our website to communicate with us.

The circumstances in which third parties provide us with information include purchase or service requirements, employment or finance applications, account management and complaints.
