This Privacy Policy explains how Simplyhealth and its Group companies collects information from users when they visit or register to use this website and how this information is then used. Please read this Privacy Statement carefully and re-visit this page from time to time to review any changes that may have been made.

We are registered as a data controller in accordance with United Kingdom Data Protection Act 1998. We will process any personal information we collect about you in accordance with the Data Protection Act 1998.

This Privacy Policy applies to you whether you use the website as a casual browser, have registered to use the website or have entered into a contract with Simplyhealth or one of its Group companies in relation to the supply of specific services and/or products. In the event of any conflict between this Privacy Statement and the terms of a contract you have with Simplyhealth, the relevant provision of that contract shall prevail to the extent of any inconsistency.

We will not collect any personal information about you from your browsing of the website unless you agree to collection and use of your personal data. When you enter into a contract with Simplyhealth or one of its Group companies for our services or products, you may be asked to submit personal information about yourself in order to receive or use these services or products. We will only collect information that is necessary for us to provide you with the product or service that you have requested. The type of information that we may collect will depend upon the nature of that service or product. We may employ the services of a third party to help us in certain areas, such as website hosting, marketing and market researching. In some cases that third party may receive your information. However, at all times we will control and be responsible for the use of your information.

At all times we are legally obliged to collect, retain and process any personal information that you provide in accordance with the Data Protection Act 1998. Each time you provide us with personal information we aim to let you know how we intend to use it and ask you to give your consent to such use. This will include:

(a) where we would like to use that information to send you details of other products and services we offer which are similar to the product/service for which you have subscribed; and
(b) where we would like to share that information with certain selected third parties to allow them to provide you with details of their services and/or products which might be of interest to you.

We will hold your personal information securely and will only keep it for as long as is reasonably necessary in the circumstances you are registered to use the website or for as long as you use the service that you have requested, unless you have provided us with your consent to use the data for any additional purposes. We take the security of the website and the information you provide very seriously and we will take all appropriate technical measures using recognised security procedures and tools in accordance with good industry practice to protect your personal information. Whilst we use all reasonable endeavours to protect your security in the manner described above, we consider that it is only appropriate to advise users that data transmission over the Internet and the World Wide Web cannot always be guaranteed as 100% secure, and therefore that you use the website at your own risk.

Requests for personal information and notification of Data Record inaccuracies You are entitled to have sight of the personal information Simplyhealth holds on you provided you forward a request in writing to Simplyhealth addressed to Data Controller, Hambleden House, Andover, Hants SP10 1LQ and you enclose a statutory fee of £10 to cover Simplyhealth's administration costs. If on receipt of the information Simplyhealth sends to you, you discover an inaccuracy, you are entitled to have the inaccuracy corrected free of charge.

If we make any changes to this Privacy Statement these changes will be detailed on this page in order to ensure that you are fully aware of what information is collected, how it is used and under what circumstances it will be disclosed.

This Privacy Statement applies only to information collected by this website. The website may contain links to other websites.
