Privacy Notice

Atrium Underwriters Limited are committed to compliance with data protection laws. This notice sets out how we use, share and secure personal data when we provide our services as an insurance and reinsurance business, as well as setting out the rights that individuals have in relation to their personal data.

How We Use Personal Data

Atrium conducts its business as a participant within the London Insurance Market. In order to do so and to provide insurance quotes, insurance policies, and/or deal with any claims or complaints, Atrium needs to collect and process personal data about individuals (“you”).

Insurance involves the use and disclosure of personal data by various insurance market participants such as intermediaries, insurers and reinsurers. The London Insurance Market Core Uses Information Notice (which can be found here: https://lmg.london/document/data-protection-insurance-market-core-uses-information-notice/) sets out those core necessary personal data uses and disclosures. Atrium’s core uses and disclosures are consistent with the London Market Core Uses Information Notice.

We recommend you review this notice. In certain circumstances, we may need your consent to process certain categories of information about you (including sensitive details such as information about your health and any criminal convictions you may have). Where we need your consent, we will ask you for it separately. You do not have to give your consent and you may withdraw your consent at any time. However, if you do not give your consent, or you withdraw your consent, this may affect our ability to provide the insurance cover from which you benefit and may prevent us from providing cover for you or handling your claims.

Security of Personal Data

We implement technical and organisational measures to ensure a level of security appropriate to the risk to the personal data we process. These measures are aimed at ensuring the on-going integrity and confidentiality of personal data. We evaluate these measures on a regular basis to ensure the security of the processing.

Those transfers would always be made in compliance with the UK Data Protection Act or where relevant the GDPR. If you would like further details of how your personal data would be protected if transferred outside the UK or EEA, please contact the Data Protection Officer.
