Legal Basis: Contract
Understanding Contract as a Legal Basis
Contractual Relationship: Contract serves as the second legal basis for data processing, typically applicable when there's an existing contract with the individual.
Application of Contract
- Fulfillment of Contract: Personal data processing may be necessary to fulfill contractual obligations or provide requested information about services.
- Third-Party Involvement: When processing another individual's data under a contract, consider using a different lawful basis.
- Initiative Contact: Initiating contact based on third-party suggestions may not align with the contract as a lawful basis.
Limitations of Contractual Basis
Scope of Processing: Processing under contract should strictly align with fulfilling the terms of the contract. Contacting customers for additional services may require a different lawful basis.
