As Trustee of the Scheme we need to collect and use personal information about our members and their survivors. This privacy notice sets out how we collect, use and protect your personal information and your rights in relation to your information.
Personal information is information, or a combination of pieces of information, that could reasonably allow you to be identified.
Please note: the Scheme's Independent Trustee Director (PAN Trustees UK LLP (“PAN”)) may continue to hold personal data collected through its role as a Trustee even when it is no longer a Trustee Director of the Fund. Information about PAN’s approach in this situation to data security as a firm can be found at pantrustees.co.uk/Scheme-GDPR
We hold or will collect personal information about you from a variety of sources, including information from you directly, information provided by the Scheme's employers and information we get from other sources, including public databases.
The categories of personal information that we collect directly from you include:
These are examples of categories of information we may collect from other sources:
The ways we use your information include:
We must have a legal reason to use your personal information. This will usually be one of the following:
In a few cases, especially where you have given us information about your health, we may ask for your consent to process your data. Where this applies, you may take back your consent at any time by contacting the AA Pensions Team using the contact details listed below.
We have in place measures to protect the security of your personal information and keep it confidential. We review these measures regularly to make sure they remain appropriate.
When sharing your personal information with our administrators or another third party we will make sure that they also have measures in place to protect it and keep it confidential and agree to use the personal information only for the purposes we set out.
We will keep your personal information for as long as we have a relationship with you or your survivors. When deciding how long to keep your personal information after our relationship with you and your survivors has ended, we take into account our legal obligations and regulators' expectations. We may also retain records to investigate or defend potential legal claims.
You have rights regarding your personal information, including the right in certain circumstances to access, correct, delete or transfer your personal information or to restrict or object to our use of it. We may need extra information from you to deal with any request. If you would like to discuss or exercise these rights, please contact us.
Your personal information may be transferred to, stored, and processed in a country that is not regarded as ensuring an adequate level of protection for personal information under European Union law. Where your personal information is to be transferred outside the UK (for example by the administrator) we will make sure that there are appropriate safeguards in accordance with applicable legal requirements to protect the information. For more information on any safeguards in place, please contact us.
We may update this privacy notice from time to time. You will be able to see when we last updated the notice because we will include a revision date. Updates are effective from the date on which they are posted on the Scheme's website.

Appendix 1
Aon Solutions UK Limited (and the Scheme Actuary - together "Aon") has been appointed to provide pensions advisory and calculation services that relate to your membership of the Scheme. In doing so Aon will use personal information about you, such as your name and contact details, information about your pension contributions, age of retirement, and in some limited circumstances information about your health (where this impacts your retirement age) in order to be able to provide these services. The purposes for which we use personal information will include management of the Scheme and your membership of it, funding the Scheme (i.e. helping to ensure that the funds within the Scheme are sufficient to cover the benefits from the Scheme), liability management (that is to say providing advice on the different ways benefits could be determined, and drawn, from the Scheme), scheme actuary duties (which include assessing individuals who are members of the Scheme and assessing how the make-up of the membership may affect the amounts payable and when they become payable so as to manage the Scheme appropriately), regulatory compliance, process and service improvement and benchmarking.
We may pass your personal information to third parties such as financial advisors and benefits providers, insurers, our affiliates and service providers and to certain regulatory bodies where legally required to do so. Depending on the circumstances, this may involve a transfer of data outside the UK and the European Economic Area to countries that have less robust data protection laws. Any such transfer will be made with appropriate safeguards in place.
More detail about Aon’s use of your personal information is set out in our full Privacy Notice. We recommend that you review this notice which is available online at http://www.aon.com/unitedkingdom/products-and-services/human-capital-consulting/aon-hewitt-actuarial-services-privacy-statement.jsp, or you can request a copy by contacting us, including reference to the Scheme name, at:
