PRIVACY AND SECURITY POLICY
ProSport Insurance Services is committed to
both respecting your privacy and providing a secure website so your
personal information is protected. You can be assured any
information you provide to us will be used strictly in accordance
with the terms laid out in this statement.
Collecting Information
We will only look to request necessary
information from you and will only use and disclose this
information in the course of arranging and administering your
insurance, and to inform you of other services which we feel maybe
appropriate to you.
The type of information we will collect will include, for example,
your name and postal address, date of birth, telephone number,
email address, credit/debit card details and bank account
details.
The information we hold will be, to the best of
our knowledge, accurate and up to date. Under the Data Protection
Act you have the right to see the personal information that we hold
about you in our records.
All personal information is treated confidentially and is safely
stored on our computer, with security systems preventing
unauthorised access.
Confidentiality
We will endeavour to treat all your personal
information as private and confidential. Other than under the terms
of this privacy statement we will not disclose any of your
information to anyone.
We would like to bring your attention to our
obligations to disclose information in the following exceptional
cases permitted by law. These are:
• Where we are legally forced to
• Where there is a duty to the public to disclose
information
• Where you have given permission to disclose
information
• Where we have to protect our interest
In the event that you have to make a claim then
we will need to disclose information with any other parties
involved in that particular claim. For example these parties may
include the third party involved with the claim, the third party's
insurer or the third party's solicitor.
As highlighted in our Terms of Business, motor
insurance policy details will be added to the Motor Insurance
Database (MID). The MID is run by the Motor Insurers Information
Centre (MIIC). MID data may be used by the DVLA and DVLNI for the
purpose of Electronic Vehicle Licensing and by the Police for the
purposes of establishing whether a driver's use of the vehicle is
likely to be covered by a motor insurance policy and/or for
preventing and detecting crime.
If you are involved in an accident, the MID
maybe used by Insurers, MIIC and the Motor Insurer's Bureau to
identify relevant policy information. People pursuing a claim in
respect of a road traffic accident may also obtain relevant
information held on the MID. For more information visit

misuse and abuse is of great importance to us. We are constantly
reviewing and enhancing our technical and physical security
procedures to protect your personal data from unauthorised
