If you request a quote from the Drewberry website, you are providing personal data to Drewberry. The purpose of our site is to provide a wide range of quotations from different Partner organisations. In order to do this, we will pass the data you provide to Drewberry to our partners.
In addition, we enable you to return to the Site at any time to retrieve past quotes from partners. This requires Drewberry to store your data and any details of the quotes you’ve received on our servers.
We have kept to a minimum the amount of required information you need to pass us to access the services on our site, but if you do not wish to provide us with certain information we may find it impossible to provide all aspects of our service to you.
We may collect the following information:
By providing data to Drewberry, you are consenting to Drewberry converting such information into digital format such that it can be read, utilised and displayed by Drewberry’s computers or any other technology currently in existence or hereafter developed capable of utilising digital information.
The personal data we collect may be used where we have your specific consent to do so, or where Drewberry has a legitimate interest in or other legal basis for processing such information. In some situations, the collection of personal data may be required for the operation of the Site or to provide certain services or products. Drewberry uses your personal data to fulfil your requests for information, process your quote requests, for the provision of financial advice and administration of the products or services you are seeking, to personalise content that you view or receive on the Site, evaluate and improve our services, distribute newsletters and alerts to you, analyse the Sites’ performance and functioning, enforce our terms of use, comply with all applicable laws and corporate reporting obligations, enforce Drewberry’s agreements, and accomplish other purposes you may initiate or request. We may keep any of your personal data on file and use it to contact you.
For the provision of advice, we need to collect sensitive information, such as information about your health. To do this, we will ask for your consent.
In some instances, it is necessary to collect more sensitive information (such as health or lifestyle information) which is called special category data.
This is to allow us to provide our financial advice service to you. We will always obtain your consent during the advice process to gather this data and explain what information we require and why it is needed. Sensitive personal information will always be processed and stored securely.
You can withdraw your consent at any time to us processing this data, however, this may mean that you can no longer access the service or product the information was gathered for.

Note that no third party analytics firm has access to personal data such as your name, phone number, email address or payment details etc.
In order to get insurance quotes from across the marketplace for you, we need to pass data to insurers, i.e. third parties, which wish to provide you with quotes or products or services related to the request you have submitted to the Site.
We ensure that we only work with trustworthy third parties with robust data protection policies of their own. However, we cannot guarantee the way in which our third party partners will use your information.
