Data Controller

Globe Underwriting Limited is a company authorised by an insurer or managing agent to enter into a contract or contracts of insurance. These contracts are underwritten by an insurer or members of a syndicate managed by a managing agent in accordance with the terms of a binding authority. Globe Underwriting Limited is an Appointed Representative for Ed Broking LLP, which is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority in respect of general insurance business. The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), which came into force on 25 May 2018, imposed particular responsibilities for protecting personal data upon data controllers. Data controllers are the organizations or persons who decide the purposes for which personal data is processed and the way in which this is carried out. The identity of a data controller depends on a particular business relationship involved. However, Globe who underwrite or administering an insurance contract or administering a claim under an insurance contract will normally act as the data controller so in this case, your data controller will normally be Globe Underwriting Limited. Globe may act as joint data controller with another company and where this is the case, we ensure that there is an arrangement in place to set out our respective responsibilities under GDPR.
