We will use all reasonable efforts to safeguard your personal information. However, the use of the Internet is not entirely secure and for this reason we cannot guarantee the security or integrity of any personal information which is transferred from you, or to you, via the internet.

We have systems that protect our clients and ourselves against fraud and other crime. We may use your personal information to prevent crime and trace those responsible. We may check your details with fraud prevention agencies. If you give us false or misleading information and we suspect fraud, we will record this. We and other organisations may use and search these records to help us trace and prevent fraud and manage your accounts, or check your identity to prevent money laundering. With regards to money laundering checks we obtain documentation from you but also use a third party who carry out a variety of electronic checks to identify you.
