The data collected in this category is essential to provide our services to you. The data is necessary for the website to operate, to verify your identity and to maintain your security and privacy while using the website. It enables you to move around the website and use its features, such as accessing secure areas. We also use this data to check that it’s you when you’re using online banking and to help us to detect and prevent fraud. For example, we collect behavioural biometrics (such as the way you use your device) to enable us to track changes in the way you interact with the service. This category is always on, as without this data, the services you’ve asked for can’t be provided. Although it is possible to disable cookies on websites via the browser settings, this would affect the functionality of the website, causing it not to work. This data is not used for marketing purposes or for the purposes covered by the other three categories below.
