Use of personal data regulated under EU data protection laws must be justified under one of a number of legal bases and we are required to set out the legal basis in respect of each use in this policy. An explanation of the scope of the legal basis available can be found below. We note the legal basis we use to justify each use of your information next to the use in the “European grounds for processing personal data” section of this notice.
