We and/or the insurer use sensitive personal data to provide you with quotes, arrange and manage your insurance policy and to provide the services to you, including claims.

Sensitive personal data will NOT be used for marketing purposes.
HOW WE COLLECT YOUR PERSONAL DATA
- Personal data you provide directly to us (for example by filling in forms on our site or by sending us emails). We may automatically collect certain data from you as you use our website by using cookies and similar technologies. Please see the Cookies section of this policy for more details.
- We may receive data from third parties such as analytics providers such as Google based outside the EU, advertising networks such as Facebook based outside the EU, search information providers such as Google based outside the EU, providers of technical, payment and delivery services, such as data brokers or aggregators.
- We and the insurer may research, collect and use data about you from publicly available sources (including Electoral Register, Companies House, County Court Judgements, bankruptcy, repossession information, social media and networking sites) and insurance industry registers. We may do this at any time to assist in providing you with a quote, arranging your insurance policy, making a mid-term adjustment, renewing your insurance policy, reporting an incident or handling a claim.
- We or the insurer may also check your (or any other named rider) driving licence number with the DVLA to confirm licence status, entitlement and relevant restriction information and endorsement/conviction data. For details relating to information held about you by the DVLA please visit: www.MyLicence.org.uk
- We or the insurer may ask Credit Reference Agencies (CRA) to provide information to assess your application or renewal. This information helps to confirm your identity, allows us to give you a quote and decide which payment options to offer you, for example, monthly instalments. You will see a record of this search if you request a credit report. No other organisation who may conduct credit searches will be able to see it. The search will not affect your credit record or credit rating in any way. The identities of the CRAs and the ways in which they use and share personal information are explained in more detail at experian.co.uk/crain, callcredit.co.uk/crain and equifax.co.uk/crain
- Under the conditions of your insurance policy, you must tell us about any incident, such as an accident or theft, which may give rise to a claim (even if it was not your fault) and whether or not you claimed for them. We or the insurer may check various insurance industry registers to validate your claims history or that of any other person or property associated with your insurance policy or claim. We or the insurer may search a range of registers, including: 
- We or the insurer may check your ‘No Claims Discount’ (‘NCD’) details against an NCD database. Such searches may be carried out against driving licence number, name, date of birth, Vehicle Registration Mark (‘VRM’ or registration number) and/or postcode.
HOW YOUR PERSONAL DATA IS USED
1. Automated Decision Making

We will use your personal data to help determine the prices, policy terms, relevant products/services, when you research or ask for a quote, buy insurance, make any changes, renew or make a claim. We may also profile you based on your personal information and that provided by third parties. Profiling may be used to help determine the likelihood of a claim or policy transaction being fraudulent.

2. Insurance Administration, Renewal and Claims Handling

We will use your personal data to arrange and manage your insurance policy and issue documents and information to you. The insurer will use your personal data to assess your insurance application, handle underwriting and claims. Information may also be shared with other insurers either directly or via those acting for the insurer such as loss adjusters or investigators. If you move to a new broker or insurer, we may confirm certain details about your insurance policy to them. We will only do this if we are sure it is a genuine request. If you have given us your credit or debit card details, we may use this information to automatically renew your insurance policy unless you have asked us not to.

3. Preventing and Detecting Crime and Fraud

We and the insurer may use your personal data to detect and prevent fraudulent applications and claims. The savings we make help us to keep premiums down. We and the insurer may check your information against a range of insurance industry registers and anti-fraud databases for completeness and accuracy.

If we or the insurer suspect fraud or find that false or inaccurate information has been given to us, appropriate action will be taken, which may include passing details to fraud prevention and law enforcement agencies.

We, the insurer and other organisations, including those from other countries, may use information recorded by fraud prevention agencies to prevent fraud and money laundering, for example, when:
- checking details on applications for credit and credit related or other facilities
- managing credit and credit related accounts or facilities
- recovering debt
- checking details on proposals and claims for all types of insurance; or
- checking details of job applicants and employees
4. Motor Insurance Database

We or the insurer will add details about your insurance policy to the Motor Insurance Database (‘MID’) which is managed by the Motor Insurers’ Bureau (‘MIB’). MID and the data stored on it may be used by certain statutory and authorised bodies, including the Police, the DVLA, the DVLANI and the Insurance Fraud Bureau, for purposes not limited to but including:
- Electronic Licensing;
- Continuous Insurance Enforcement;
- Law enforcement (prevention, detection, apprehension and/or prosecution of offenders);
- The provision of government services and/or other services aimed at reducing the level and incidence of uninsured driving.
If you are involved in a road traffic accident (either in the UK, the EU or certain other territories), insurers and/or the MIB may search the MID to get relevant information.

Any person (including their appointed representatives) pursuing a claim in respect of a road traffic accident (including foreign citizens) may also get relevant information which is held on the MID.

It is vital that the MID holds your correct registration number. If it is incorrectly shown on the MID, you are at risk of having the police seize your motorcycle.

You can check that your correct registration number details are shown on the MID at www.askMID.com

5. Telling You about Other Products and Services (Marketing)

We will never sell your personal data and we will only pass your contact information to third parties for marketing purposes where you have given your explicit consent for us to do so.

Our lawful ground of processing your personal data to send you marketing communications is either your consent or where we believe it is of legitimate interest.
Under the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations, we may send you marketing communications from us if (i) you made a purchase or asked for information from us about our goods or services or (ii) you agreed to receive marketing communications and in each case you have not opted out of receiving such communications since. Under these regulations, if you are a limited company, we may send you marketing emails without your consent. However you can still opt out of receiving marketing emails from us at any time.
You can ask us to stop sending you marketing messages at any time by following the opt-out or ‘Unsubscribe’ links on any marketing message sent to you or OR by emailing us at helpme@bemoto.uk at any time.
If you opt out of receiving marketing communications this opt-out does not apply to personal data provided as a result of other transactions, such as policy purchases, claims, renewals, etc.
6. Profiling to Inform our Business Decisions
We will use your personal data to assist in product design, pricing, customer journeys or marketing and retention strategies.
DISCLOSURES OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA
We will never sell your information to third parties for marketing purposes and we will only pass your contact information to third parties where you have given your explicit consent for us to do so, however we or the insurer may need to share your personal data with the parties set out below:
- Other companies owned by Moto Broking Limited.
- Our service providers, including IT and system administration services.
- Professional advisers including lawyers, bankers, auditors and insurers.
- Law enforcement agencies and government bodies that require us to report processing activities.
- When you tell us or the insurer about an incident, we or the insurer may also pass this information to the insurance industry registers referenced earlier in this policy.
We require all third parties to whom we transfer your data to respect the security of your personal data and to treat it in accordance with the law. We only allow such third parties to process your personal data for specified purposes and in accordance with our instructions.
OVERSEAS TRANSFER OF DATA
We or the insurer may process your personal data for the purposes mentioned above in countries outside of the European Economic Area (EEA). Countries outside of the EEA do not always offer the same levels of protection to your personal data; so European law has prohibited transfers of personal data outside of the EEA unless the transfer meets certain criteria.

Whenever we transfer your personal data out of the EEA, we do our best to ensure a similar degree of security of data by ensuring at least one of the following safeguards is in place:
- We will only transfer your personal data to countries that the European Commission have approved as providing an adequate level of protection for personal data; or
- Where we use certain service providers, we may use specific contracts or codes of conduct or certification mechanisms approved by the European Commission which give personal data the same protection it has in Europe; or
- If we use US-based providers that are part of EU-US Privacy Shield, we may transfer data to them, as they have equivalent safeguards in place.
If none of the above safeguards is available, we may request your explicit consent to the specific transfer. You will have the right to withdraw this consent at any time.
DATA SECURITY

We have put in place security measures to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used, altered, disclosed, or accessed without authorisation. We also allow access to your personal data only to those employees and partners who have a business need to know such data. They will only process your personal data on our instructions and they must keep it confidential.

We have procedures in place to deal with any suspected personal data breach and will notify you and any applicable regulator of a breach if we are legally required to.
DATA RETENTION

We will only retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.

When deciding what the correct time is to keep the data for we look at its amount, nature and sensitivity, potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure, the processing purposes, if these can be achieved by other means and legal requirements.

For tax purposes the law requires us to keep basic information about our customers (including Contact, Identity, Financial and Transaction Data) for six years after they stop being customers.

In some circumstances we may anonymise your personal data for research or statistical purposes in which case we may use this information indefinitely without further notice to you.
DEALING WITH OTHERS ON YOUR BEHALF

If your spouse, civil partner, partner or any other person (who we reasonably believe to be acting for you) call us and can answer our security questions, we will allow them to help you manage your insurance policy or your claims.

For your protection only you can cancel your insurance policy or change the contact address, unless we have agreed with you or, in the event of your death, the executors of your estate.
REFERRING A FRIEND

If you give us contact details of a friend or relative, for us to contact them with information or offers from BeMoto, you must first get their permission.

We will not use their information for anything other than the purpose stated and we will never sell or pass it to any third parties for marketing purposes.
MONITORING AND RECORDING

We and the insurer may record or monitor calls for training, quality control and to prevent and detect fraud. We may also use CCTV recording equipment in and around our premises.
