Privacy Notice

1. About us

In this Privacy Policy references to "we" or "us" or "Rossborough" are to R A Rossborough (Insurance Brokers) Limited, with its registered office address at Ground Floor, Liberation House, Castle Street, St Helier, Jersey, JE2 3BT. We are a global insurance intermediary and part of the Arthur J. Gallagher group of companies.

In order to provide our services, we will collect and use data about individuals. This means that we are a 'data controller' and we are responsible for complying with data protection laws.

We have appointed a data protection officer to oversee our handling of personal information. If you have any questions about how we collect, store or use your personal information, you may contact our Data Protection Officer using the details set out in the "Contacting Us" section.

2. About the insurance market

The personal information that we collect and process will be shared with other participants in the insurance market, some of which you will not have direct contact with. You can identify relevant data controllers through the insurance market life-cycle in the following ways:

• Where you took out the insurance policy yourself: intermediaries such as Rossborough will be the initial data controller. The insurer will also be a data controller. Rossborough's Data Protection Officer can advise you of the identities of other insurance market participants that have been provided with your personal data.
• Where your employer or another organisation took out the policy for your benefit: you should contact your employer or the organisation that took out the policy who should provide you with details of intermediaries such as Rossborough that they provided your personal data to. Rossborough's Data Protection Officer can advise you of the identities of other insurance market participants that have been provided with your personal data.

Where you are not a policyholder or an insured: you should contact the organisation that collected your personal data who should provide you with details of the relevant data protection contact.

3. Our processing of your personal information

The personal information that we collect will depend on our relationship with you. Please click on the section below that best describes your relationship with us.

If you provide personal information to us about other people you must provide them with a copy of this Privacy Policy and obtain any consent where we indicate that it is required for the processing of that person's information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

We will only store your personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfil the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy and to comply with our regulatory and/ or legal obligations.

We have a detailed retention policy in place which governs how long we will hold different types of information for. The exact time period will depend on the purpose for which we collected that information, for example:

For further information regarding how long your personal information will be kept, please our contact details in see the "Contacting us" section.

Automated processing

Where a decision is necessary in relation to your insurance policy sometimes we may make decisions using automated means. The automated process will consider the information that you provide us (for example, details of the property that you wish to insure), as well as other information such as postcode and local crime rate, to determine whether your application for insurance can be accepted and the premium price. Where we make automated decisions about you, you may request that decision is reviewed by an individual decision-maker.

8. Your rights

Under data protection law you have the right to make certain requests in relation to the personal information that we hold about you. We will not usually make a charge for dealing with these requests. If you wish to exercise these rights at any time please contact us using the details set out in the "Contacting us" section.

There may be cases where we may not be able to comply with your request (such as where this would conflict with our obligation to comply with other regulatory and/ or legal requirements). However, if we can't comply with your request, we will tell you the reason, and we will always respond to any request you make.

There may also be circumstances where exercising some of these rights (such as the right to erasure, the right to restriction of processing and the right to withdraw consent) will mean your insurance can no longer be provided and it may therefore result in cancellation of your policy. You will therefore lose the right to bring any claim or receive any benefit, including in relation to any event that occurred before you exercised your right of erasure, if our ability to handle the claim has been prejudiced. Your policy terms and conditions set out what will happen in the event your policy is cancelled.

Your rights include:

The right to access your personal information 

You are entitled to a copy of the personal information we hold about you and certain details of how we use it.

We will usually provide you with your information in writing, unless you request otherwise, or where you have made the request using electronic means, in which case the information will, where possible, be provided to you by electronic means.

The right to rectification

We take reasonable steps to ensure that information we hold about you is accurate and complete. However, you can ask us to amend or update it if you do not believe this is the case.

The right to erasure

You have the right to ask us to erase your personal information in certain circumstances, for example where you withdraw your consent or where the personal information we collected is no longer necessary for the original purpose. This will need to be balanced against other factors however. For example, we may have regulatory and/ or legal obligations which mean we cannot comply with your request.

The right to restriction of processing

In certain circumstances, you are entitled to ask us to stop using your personal information, for example where you think that we no longer need to use your personal information or where you think that the personal information we hold about you may be inaccurate.

The right to data portability

You have the right, under certain circumstances, to ask that we transfer personal information that you have provided to us to another third party of your choice.

The right to object to processing

You can ask us to stop sending you marketing messages at any time. You can do this either by clicking on the "unsubscribe" link which is contained in any email that we send to you or you can use the details set out in the "Contacting us" section to contact us. If you opt out of receiving marketing messages, we may still send you (non-marketing) service related communications where necessary. You also have the right to object if data were being processed for the purpose of public functions or legitimate interests or for historical or scientific purposes.

Rights relating to automated decision-making

You can contact us using the details set out in the "Contacting us" section and ask us to review the decision if you have been subject to an automated decision and do not agree with the outcome.

The right to withdraw consent

We will ask for your consent for certain uses of your personal information. Where we do this, you have the right to withdraw your consent to further use of your personal information.

The right to lodge a complaint with the ICO

You have a right to complain to the Data Protection Authority if you believe that any use of your personal information by us is in breach of applicable data protection laws and/ or regulations. More information can be found on the Information Commissioner’s Office website: www.oicjersey.org

This will not affect any other legal rights or remedies that you have.

9. How we protect your information

To protect your information we use a range of organisational and technical security measures.

Where we have given you (or you have chosen) a password, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential. Please do not share your password with anyone.

Within Rossborough we restrict access to your information as appropriate to those who need to know that information for the purposes set out above.

We use firewalls to block unauthorised traffic to the servers and the actual servers are located in a secure location which can only be accessed by authorised personnel. Our internal procedures cover the storage, access and disclosure of your information.
