  • Checked that the processing is necessary for the relevant purpose, and are satisfied that there is no other reasonable way to achieve that purpose.
  • Documented our decision on which lawful basis applies to help us demonstrate compliance.
  • Included information about both the purposes of the processing and the lawful basis for the processing in this privacy notice.
