Legal basis for processing personal Information (EEA and UK visitors)

If you are a visitor from the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, our legal basis for collecting and using the Personal Information described above will depend on the Personal Information concerned and the specific context in which we collect it.

​

However, we will normally collect Personal Information from you only where we have your consent to do so, where we need the Personal Information to perform a contract with you, or where the processing is in our legitimate interests and not overridden by your data protection interests or fundamental rights and freedoms. In some cases, we may also have a legal obligation to collect Personal Information from you or may otherwise need the Personal Information to protect your vital interests or those of another person (e.g. other users).

​

If we ask you to provide Personal Information to comply with a legal requirement or to perform a contact with you, we will make this clear at the relevant time and advise you whether the provision of your Personal Information is mandatory or not (as well as of the possible consequences if you do not provide your Personal Information).

​

Similarly, if we collect and use your Personal Information in reliance on our legitimate interests (or those of any third party), we will make clear to you at the relevant time what those legitimate interests are.

​

Most of the ways in which we use your personal data are based on our legitimate interests in:

• providing and administering Sustainability60;

• keeping our website secure;

• keeping Sustainability60 up to date and enhancing them, both generally and for your use of them; and

• marketing our products and services.

When we rely on our legitimate interests as a lawful ground to process your Personal Information, we do so taking into account the potential impact on your privacy and we offer the right to object to or opt out from processing as described below in the “Your privacy rights” section below.

​

If you have questions about or need further information concerning the legal basis on which we collect and use your Personal Information, please contact us using the contact details provided under the “Contacting us about Privacy” heading below.

What are cookies?

We use “cookies” to assist you in customising your browsing experience. A cookie is a message in the form of a text file that is added to your computer or mobile device by a web server. Cookies are allocated specifically to you, and only a web server in the domain that assigned the cookie to you can read that cookie. Cookies are intended to promote convenience and efficiency – once placed on your hard disk or mobile device, they notify the web server when you return to a specific page, so your experience on that webpage can be personalised.

Cookies set by the website owner are called “first party cookies”. Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called “third party cookies”. Third party cookies enable third party features or functionality to be provided on or through the website (e.g. like advertising, interactive content and analytics). The parties that set these third party cookies can recognise your computer both when it visits the website in question and also when it visits certain other websites.
