Legitimate Interests - We also rely on legitimate interests for processing certain data such as promoting our business to other businesses, managing our business, training staff, and for fraud or other crime prevention purposes. This may include things like training and quality assurance, strategic planning, statistical analysis of our service provision. You may object to your personal information being used for these purposes.

Legal Obligation - In some situations, processing may be necessary because we have to comply with a legal obligation (e.g. complying with obligations to report to regulatory authorities or law enforcement, etc.).
