Automated decision making

 

Automated decision making is when a decision is made about you based only on automated means, without any human involvement.

We do not currently use automated decision making technology. Any decisions which we make are made by our personnel and are subject to internal reviews and approvals.

 

 

Sending your personal information outside of the EEA

 

We will transfer your personal information to locations outside of the European Economic Area ('EEA'). In particular, your personal information will be transferred to and stored by the Chinese Ministry Of Foreign Affairs, who are located in the People’s Republic of China and who provide services to us. Where we transfer your personal information to such recipients, we use specific contracts approved by the European Commission which give your personal information the same protection as it has in the EEA. 

 

When we transfer personal information outside of the EEA, we will make sure that it is protected in the same way as if it were being used in the EEA. This means that either the European Commission has decided that the country concerned has an adequate level of protection for your personal information, or that we have put in place our own measures to ensure your personal information is protected to an adequate level. These measures include ensuring that your personal information is kept safe, by carrying out strict security checks on our overseas providers, and by entering into contractual arrangements.

 

If you would like further information about the specific mechanisms we use to when transferring your personal information out of the EEA, please email your query to datapro.uk@mail.notes.bank-of-china.com or write to us at this address:

If you choose not to give personal information

 

We may need to collect personal information to comply with our legal obligations, or under the terms of a contract we have with you.

 

If you choose not to give us this personal information, it may delay or prevent us from meeting our obligations. It may also mean that we cannot perform services needed to process your visa application. It could mean that we cancel a service you have with us.

 

If it is optional for you to give us certain information, we will tell you at the time we ask for that information.

 

 

 

How long we keep your personal information

 

We will keep your personal information for as long as you are a customer of China Bridge Group (UK) Limited (UK) Limited. After you stop being a customer, we will typically keep your personal information for up to 7 years for one of these reasons:
