• Retain all your personal data on our main Customer Relationship Manager (CRM) system and financial systems.
• Archive all or part of your personal data from our main Customer Relationship Manager (CRM) system;
• Retain your personal data on our financial systems only.
• Pseudonymise* parts of your data, particularly following a request for suppression or deletion of your data, to ensure that we do not re-enter your personal data on to our database, unless requested to do so.
