Privacy Policy
Moor Park Capital Partners LLP (“MPC”) is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority in the United Kingdom, registration number 536448. MPC is committed to the security, confidentiality and protection of personal data. This policy explains how we use personal data and should be read in conjunction with any other documentation provided directly to you.
PERSONAL DATA
According to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ico.org.uk) the UK GDPR applies to ‘personal data’ meaning any information relating to an identifiable person who can be directly or indirectly identified by reference to an identifier. The data we collect is detailed below.
DATA CONTROLLER
A controller determines the purposes and means of processing personal data. For the purposes of this policy, MPC is a data controller in respect of any personal information we hold about you.
HOW WE OBTAIN YOUR PERSONAL DATA
We collect personal data through services that we provide and receive. Typically, it comes from the following sources:
- Contractual agreements or other material provided during our relationship.
- Correspondence received from you such as email, telephone conversations, facsimiles, letters, face-to-face discussions, text messages, contact through our website and other forms of communication. We may keep a record of all correspondence received.
- Depending on our business relationship, we may use third party firms for credit reference and money laundering checks.
PERSONAL DATA WE COLLECT
If you are a customer, we collect information to assist in the provision of services to you. This information may include:
- Your full name including title, maiden name, marital status, date of birth and gender.
- Contact details such as residential address, email and telephone numbers.
- Financial information, including your bank account and details of investments held with us and elsewhere. We may also record details of financial transactions placed across your accounts, whether held with us or elsewhere.
- Identifiers such as your national insurance number or equivalent in overseas jurisdictions, tax reference, driving licence number, passport number, internet protocol address and our own internal identifiers.
- Data used to access our client portal such as username, password, online preferences, and usage information.
- Information required to conduct ‘know your client’ checks such as details relating to your passport or other photographic identification, your credit history, current and previous addresses and source of funds.
If you are a business associate, we collect information to monitor services we have contracted for, or to assess services that are available to us. This information may include:
- Your full name including title.
- Your occupation and job title.
- Contact details for you at your place of business such as address, email and telephone number.
Please note, we do not request any special categories of personal data. Under the GDPR, special category data is more sensitive and therefore needs more protection. Categories include race; ethnic origin; politics; religion; trade union membership; genetics; biometrics (where used for ID purposes); health; sex life; sexual orientation.
When requested, you are not required to provide personal information, however, in doing so, we may not be able to proceed with a business relationship.
