Protecting your information and protecting you from internet fraud
Here are some simple measures you can take to make sure your information is kept safe:
- Keep your Premier Club and Premier Gold Club number and customer login details confidential. You should not share your login details with anyone else. You should log out when you have finished working on our platforms. This is particularly important if you are using a publicly accessible computer.
- Be aware of 'phishing', which is where someone tries to pose as someone else in order to extract information from you - always check that emails actually come from the sender and if in doubt, go to their website directly and do not click on any links in emails as these may take you to 'cloned' websites that use your information in an illegal way.
