Lawful Basis (GDPR)

 

If you are a resident of the European Economic Area (“EEA”), we process your personal information under the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) based on the following legal grounds:

  • The necessity for performing the contract between you and the Site;

  • Our compliance with legal mandates;

  • To protect your critical interests;
