How we collect information
In addition to marketing communications, we also process personal information in the following ways that are within our legitimate organisational interests:
• We may analyse data we hold about you to ensure that the content and timing of communications that we send you are as relevant to you as possible.
• We may analyse data we hold about you in order to identify and prevent fraud.
