5.2 If you share other people’s data with us, for example if you refer business to us on behalf of another, you will need to check you have lawful authority to do so. E.G. The other party has consented to you providing us with their information. In such a case you are responsible for ensuring the transmission to us of the information is lawful and we may ask you for documentary evidence of this.

6 Consequences of failing to provide Personal Data

6.1 In general if you fail or refuse to provide us with your Personal Data we will not be able to deal with your enquiry or do business with you. The following explains the consequences for each Lawful Basis of processing.

(e) Vital Interests: If data processing is required to protect the vital interests of a natural person then it is likely we will be in possession of the data before the need arises. If you have not provided us with your data this situation cannot apply to you.

(f) Legitimate Interests: Where data processing occurs and has been deemed to be in our legitimate interests this will be based on a written assessment of need.
