We may continue to use anonymised data (that does not identify you) which is aggregated with anonymised data of other users.

After termination of your account with us, we may continue to use anonymised data (that does not identify you) which is aggregated with anonymised data of other users. We use this aggregated data for data analysis, profiling and research purposes. We may also keep your email address to ensure that you no longer receive any communications from us. After termination of your account we will still keep financial records of any transactions you have made with us.
