Lawful Basis for the Processing of Personal Data
The table below describes the various forms of personal data we collect and the lawful basis for processing this data. Our business systems and compliance processes mean that all personal data is processed on common, company-wide platforms. We have processes in place to make sure that only those people in our organisation who need to access your data can do so. A number of data elements are collected for multiple purposes, as the table below shows. Some data may be shared with third parties and, where this happens, this is also identified below.
​
When we process personal information on the lawful basis of legitimate interest, we employ a three-part test before determining whether it is appropriate:
-
Is there a legitimate interest behind the processing?
-
Is the processing necessary for that purpose?
-
Is the legitimate interest overridden, or not, by the individual’s interests, rights or freedoms?
