How do we use your Personal Data?

 

Under applicable data protection laws we need a reason to use and process your Personal Data and this is called a legal ground. We have set out below the main reasons why we process your Personal Data and the applicable circumstances when we will do so:

  • Processing is necessary in order for us to provide your insurance policy and services, such as assessing your application and setting you up as a policyholder or investments account holder, beneficiary, administering and managing your insurance policy or benefits, providing all related services, providing a quote, handling and paying claims and communicating with you. In these circumstances, if you do not provide such information, we will be unable to offer you a policy or process your claim.
  • We may use Cloud storage solutions within or outside Nigeria which are chosen to ensure efficiency and improved performance through up to date technology.
  • Where we have a legal or regulatory obligation to use such Personal Data , for example, when our regulators such as the National Insurance Commission (NAICOM), the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS), and our data protection regulator, the National Information Technology Development Agency (NITDA) wish us to maintain certain records of any dealings with you.
  • To comply with: local or foreign laws, regulations, voluntary codes, directives, judgments or court orders, agreements between any member of AXA Mansard, AXA Group and any authority, regulator, or enforcement agency; policies (including the AXA Group’s policies), good practice, government sanctions or embargoes, reporting requirements under financial transactions legislation and demands or requests of any authority, regulator, tribunal, enforcement agencies including but not limited to the Nigerian Financial Intelligene Unit (“NFIU”) and the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (“EFCC”), or exchange bodies;
  • Where we need to use your Personal Data to establish, exercise or defend our legal rights, for example when we are faced with any legal claims or where we want to pursue any legal claims ourselves;
  • Where we need to use your Personal Data for reasons of substantial public interest, such as investigating fraudulent claims and carrying out fraud, credit and anti-money laundering checks, identification checks;
  • Where we need to communicate with you to resolve complaints or other issues;
  • Where we have a specific legal exemption to process sensitive Personal Data for insurance purposes. This exemption applies where we need to process your Personal Data as an essential part of the insurance cover, for example health data.
  • Where you have provided your consent to our use of your Personal Data. We will usually only ask for your consent in relation to processing your sensitive Personal Data (such as health data) or when providing marketing information to you (including information about other products and services). This will be made clear when you provide your Personal Data . If we ask for your consent, we will explain why it is necessary. Without your consent in some circumstances, we may not be able to provide you with cover under the policy or handle claims or you may not be able to benefit from some of our services. Where you provide sensitive Personal Data about a third party, we may ask you to confirm and provide proof that the third party has provided his or her consent for you to act on their behalf;
  • Where we need to use your Sensitive Personal Data such as health data because it is necessary for your vital interests, this being a life or death matter.

We may also disclose your personal information to other third parties where:

 

  • We are required or permitted to do so by law or by regulatory bodies such as where there is a court order, statutory obligation or Prudential Regulatory Authority / Financial Conduct Authority; or
  • We believe that such disclosure is necessary in order to assist in the prevention or detection of any criminal action (including fraud) or is otherwise in the overriding public interest; or
  • Exemptions under the data protection legislation allow us to do so

 

Some of the recipients and technical solutions set out above may be in other countries outside Nigeria. Where we make a transfer of your Personal Data outside of Nigeria, in all cases where Personal Data is transferred to a country which is deemed not to have the same standards of protection for personal data as Nigeria, AXA Mansard will ensure appropriate safeguards have been implemented to ensure that your Personal Data is protected where standards are not the same or similar to those standards within Nigeria. Such steps may include placing the party we are transferring Personal Data to under contractual obligations to protect it to adequate standards. Occasionally, there may also be some circumstances where we are required to transfer your Personal Data outside of Nigeria and we shall rely on the basis of processing it for being necessary for the performance of your contract; for example, where you have a travel insurance policy and we need to contact you when you are outside Nigeria.

 

How long do we keep records for?

 

We keep your Personal Data for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfil the relevant purposes set out in this Privacy Policy and in order to comply with our legal and regulatory obligations. The length of time we retain Personal Data for depends on the purposes for which we collect and use it and/or as required to comply with applicable laws and to establish, exercise or defend our legal rights.

For example, at any time you can ask us for a copy of your Personal Data, ask us to correct mistakes, change the way we use your information, or even delete it.

Changing and accessing your Personal Data:

 

To the extent required by applicable law, you may be able to request that we inform you about the Personal Data we maintain about you and, where appropriate, withdraw your consent for certain data processing activity and/or request that we update, correct, delete, and/or stop processing your Personal Data. We will respond to your access requests within the period specified by relevant legislation and make all required updates and changes within the time specified by applicable law and as required by law.

When permitted by law, we may charge an appropriate fee to cover the costs of responding to the request. Where the timeline specified in an applicable law cannot be met, we will communicate same to you and take steps to notify you where we require an extension.

 

How we protect Personal Data :

 

We take reasonable measures to protect Personal Data from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction to ensure that Personal Data is accurate and up-to-date as appropriate because:

 

  • We have put in place strict measures and technologies to prevent fraud and intrusion.
