How the law protects you

As well as our Privacy Promise, your privacy is protected by law. This section explains how that works.

  • When it is our legal duty, or
  • When it is in our legitimate interest, or

A legitimate interest is when an organisation has a business or commercial reason to use your information. But even then, it must not unfairly go against what is right and best for you. If we rely on our legitimate interest, we will tell you what that is.

 

Here is a list of all the ways that we may use your personal information, and which of the reasons we rely on to do so. This is also where we tell you what our legitimate interests are.
