The results of this analysis, together with other demographic data, allow us to ensure that we contact you with information on products, services, events and offers that are tailored and relevant to you.

We aim to update you about products and services which are of interest and relevance to you as an individual.

We may also use your data to exclude you from communications which we feel are irrelevant to you.

Another example of how we may tailor our communications with you is that we may group individuals with similar interests using this data so we can send them product news or promotional offers that are relevant to that shared interest.
