- to check your identity;

external databases and sanctions lists and establishing connections to politically exposed persons;

We will comply with all local laws, regulations and internal policies when doing so. Those recordings may be used by us in evidence in the event of a dispute with you or the organisation with whom you are associated.
We are entitled to use your personal information in these ways because:

We may need to share your personal information with colleagues in Cadre Rocket limited (including our suppliers and other Cadre Rocket Limited companies as the company goes). We will take steps to ensure that the personal information is accessed only by employees that have a need to do so for the purposes described in this notice.

Transfers of personal information outside the European Economic Area
Your personal information may be transferred outside the European Economic Area (“EEA”) and processed by us, our affiliates or suppliers outside of the EEA.
Where we transfer your personal information outside the EEA, we will ensure that it is protected in a manner that is consistent with how your personal information will be protected by us in the EEA. This can be done in a number of ways, for instance the country that we send the information to might be approved by the European Commission; or the recipient may have signed up to a contract based on “model contractual clauses” approved by the European
Commission, obliging them to protect your personal information. In other circumstances the law may permit us to otherwise transfer your personal information outside the EEA.
In all cases, however, we will ensure that any transfer of your personal information is compliant with applicable data protection law.
You can obtain more details of the protection given to your personal information when it is transferred outside the EEA (including a copy of the standard information protection clauses which we have entered into with recipients of your personal information) by contacting us in accordance with the “Contacting us” section below.
Retention of personal information
Your information will be retained in line with our internal records management policies and retention schedules. Your information will typically be retained for up to 6 (six) years, but retention periods may vary. The retention period will be determined by various criteria including the type of record in which your information is included; the purpose for which we are using it (we will need to keep the information for as long as is necessary for that purpose); and legal obligations (laws or regulation may set a minimum period for which we have to keep your personal information).
We may on exception retain your information for longer periods, particularly where we need to withhold destruction or disposal based on an order from the courts or an investigation by law enforcement agencies or our regulators. This is intended to make sure that the bank will be able to produce records as evidence, if they’re needed.

- the right to obtain information regarding the processing of your personal information and access to the personal information which we hold about you;
