LEGAL BASIS FOR PROCESSING (FOR EU DATA SUBJECTS) 

If you are an individual in the EU, we collect and process information about you only where we have a legal basis for doing so under relevant EU law.  The legal basis depends on the products and services you use and how you use them. This means we collect and use your information only where:

  • we need it to provide you products pursuant to Client contracts, including to maintain products, provide customer support and features and to protect the safety and security of the products;
  • it satisfies a legitimate interest (which is not overridden by your data protection interests), such as for research and development, to market and promote products and to protect our legal rights and interests;
  • you give us consent to do so for a specific purpose, such as marketing; or
  • we need to process your data to comply with a legal obligation.

If you have consented to our use of information about you for a specific purpose, you have the right to change your mind at any time, but this will not affect any processing that has already taken place.  Where we are using your information because we or a third party have a legitimate interest to do so, you have the right to object to that use though, in some cases, this may mean no longer using the products. 

We collect Employee Information based on our legitimate interest in recruiting and managing Employees.
