Recordsure relies upon the following legal bases for processing the personal data obtained from the practices outlined in Personal Data we Collect.

Legitimate interest

‘Legitimate Interest’ means the interests of our company in conducting and managing our business to enable us to give you the best services and experience. For example, we have an interest in making sure our services are relevant for you, so we may process your personal data to contact you by telephone with discussions tailored to your interests.

When we process your personal information for our legitimate interests, we make sure to consider the balance and any potential impact on you (both positive and negative) and your rights under the data protection regulation. Our legitimate business interests do not automatically override your interests – we will not use your personal data for activities where our interests are overridden by the impact on you (unless we have your consent or are otherwise required or permitted to by law).

Our legitimate business interests may include some or all of the following:

• For evidential purposes to effectively manage and maintain records of our relationships/communications with you;
