The personal information collected may include: your name and contact information; your date of birth, national insurance number; financial details such as income, bank accounts; biometric data such as finger prints; information from third parties such as credit reference, fraud prevention, insurance, regulatory, courts, publicly available agencies/ bodies; family, lifestyle or social circumstances if relevant to the service; education and employment details for the service.
