Legal basis for processing personal data

Our legal basis for processing your personal data is to carry out our obligations arising from any contracts between you and us and to provide you with the data and services that you request from us. This is not overridden by your data protection interests or fundamental rights and freedoms. We  also collect personal data from you via our websites where we have your consent to do so or where we need the personal data to perform a contract with you. We also have a legal obligation to collect personal data from you to fulfill our regulatory and legal obligations.

How we use your data

The purpose for which we use and process your data is explained below:

  • To provide our investment services to you as detailed in any  contracts between you and us. This includes but is not limited to investment performance data for research and analysis purposes
  • To comply with our legal and regulatory requirements such as Financial Conduct Authority requests for information

Tatton will only use your personal data for the purposes for which we collected it, unless we reasonably consider that we need to use it for another reason and that reason is compatible with the original purpose. If we need to use your personal data for an unrelated purpose, we will notify you in a timely manner and we will explain the legal basis which allows us to do so.
