Legal basis for processing:
Data protection legislation requires that we meet certain conditions before we can use your personal data as described in this Privacy Statement.

It is also in our interest to administer and respond to inquiries about your appointment or potential engagement with us as a supplier of goods or services. To meet legal obligations under applicable data protection laws, we may hold necessary information as part of our data protection impact assessments (DPIA), compliance program, and record-keeping obligations. We will ensure that we keep the amount of data collected and the extent of any processing to a minimum to meet this legitimate interest.
Where we have been contracted by you or your organization to collect personal data, including 'special category', our legal basis for processing is 'in the execution of a legal contract'. We will only collect and process as instructed by you or your data controller.
