a) We will process your personal data to fulfil our contract with you: As to Art. 6-1-b-GDPR, where the processing is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is party or in order to take steps at the request of the data subject prior to entering into a contract, processing of personal data will be lawful. Therefore, to fulfil our contract with you, such as providing our AAZZUR services to you and developing and providing a high-quality user experience through the AAZZUR app, your personal data is processed.
b) We will process your personal data to fulfil our legal obligations:
As to Art. 6-1-c-GDPR, where the processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which the controller is subject, processing of personal data will be lawful. Therefore, to verify your identity when you apply for an AAZZUR account, to check applications against certain fraud prevention and sanctions databases, to implement measures to identify and prevent financial crime (for example, money laundering, fraud and terrorist financing), to make responsible lending decisions, your personal data is processed.
We utilise the latest technology to make automated decisions for the verification of identities and the identification of financial crime. If you are rejected or negatively affected on the basis of an automated decision or automated profiling, you will be notified about this and you have the right to appeal.

Therefore, it is in our legitimate interests to use your personal data to keep you informed of the status of the AAZZUR services you use, to provide a great customer service experience, to check applications against certain fraud prevention databases. When we and fraud prevention agencies process your personal data, we do so on the basis that we have a legitimate interest in preventing fraud and money laundering, in order to protect our business and to comply with the laws that apply to us. Such processing is also a contractual requirement of the services or financing you have requested.

a) Promotional offers from us. We may use your personal data and location data to form a view on what we think you may want or need, or what may be of interest to you. This is how we decide which products, Services and offers may be relevant for you. You may receive promotional communications from us via email, SMS, in-app messages, telephone or post if you have requested information from us or signed up to use our Services, or if you provided us with your details when you entered a competition or registered for a promotion and, in each case, you have not opted out of receiving that communication.

12. Retaining your information

Alternatively, we may refuse to comply with your request based on the circumstances set out GDPR.
14. What we may need from you
14.1 We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access your personal data (or to exercise any of your other rights). This is a security measure to ensure that personal data is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it. We may also contact you to ask you for further information in relation to your request to speed up our response.
15. Time limit to respond
15.1 We try to respond to all legitimate requests within one month. Occasionally it may take us longer than a month if your request is particularly complex or you have made a number of requests. In this case, we will notify you and keep you updated.
