This is where we need to use your data to engage in our normal day to day activities e.g. keeping a record of customer details to enable business services to be provided. · Explicit consent of the data subject. An example of this would be your consent to joining a mailing list so that we can keep you informed about prices, news, events, activities and services including competitions et cetera. · Processing is necessary for us to comply with the law. Examples of this could be our legal obligations to maintain certain records so that we may carry out our obligations under employment, social security or social protection law, or a collective agreement
