   1. Where you have provided your consent for us to use your personal data in a certain way (for example, to use your personal data to send you direct marketing by email and we may ask for your explicit consent to collect special categories of your personal data).

      
      

   2. Where necessary so that we can comply with a legal obligation to which we are subject (for example, where we are obliged to share your personal data with regulatory bodies which govern our work and services).

      
      

   3. Where necessary for the performance of a contract to which you are a party or to take steps at your request prior to entering a contract (for example, if you apply to work for/ volunteer with us).

   5. Where there is a legitimate interest in us doing so (for example, processing data about your use of our website and services, our legitimate interests in monitoring and improving our website and services, or using data contained in or relating to any communication you send us, as well as our legitimate interests in the proper administration of our website, business and in our communications with users).

We will not use your personal data for activities where our interests are overridden by the impact on you, for example where use would be excessively intrusive (unless, for instance, we are otherwise required or permitted to by law).
