5. 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 architecture, accounting and systems infrastructure and compliance organisation means that all personal data is processed on common, Group-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 on the lawful basis of legitimate interest, we apply the following test to determine whether it is appropriate:

​

The purpose test – is there a legitimate interest behind the processing?

​

Necessity test – is the processing necessary for that purpose?

​

Balancing test – is the legitimate interest overridden, or not, by the individual’s interests, rights or freedoms?
