What will happen to my Personal Data?
It's important to note that your data will transfer to NewDay as they have bought the account, and will therefore need your data to manage it.
If you request to close your account, your card will be cancelled, and you won't be able to use your account anymore. You'll need to continue making payments until your balance is repaid in full, and your data will still transfer to NewDay. If there is an outstanding balance on your Argos Card account in April 2026, the changes to the Terms will still apply to your Account and your Agreement and you'll need to either register for the new Argos Pay app and Online Account Manager; to continue to make payments, or choose an alternative method.
Whether your account is open or closed in April 2026 NewDay is required to hold your data for the purposes of future claims, complaints or queries, to facilitate any requests to exercise your data subject rights, and to facilitate regulatory, legislative and business analysis and reporting. NewDay will not use your data for any other purposes without your prior, express consent.
NewDay becomes the Data Controller of your Personal Data transferred to them from April 2026 and will be responsible for keeping your Personal Data safe in compliance with applicable laws.
