In particular, the Notice describes the categories of personal information we may process, how your personal information may be processed and how your privacy is safeguarded in the course of our relationship with you.  It is intended to comply with our obligations to provide you with information about the Company's processing of your personal information under privacy laws.  
We take your data protection rights and our legal obligations seriously. Your personal information will be treated in a secure and confidential manner and only as detailed in this Notice.   
The Notice is divided into sections, which relate to the type of relationship that you have with the Company.  Each section will give you information relating to the way we manage data in each of the types of relationship or interaction that we may have with you. 
Of course, not all of the sections in the Notice will be relevant to everyone. The Notice is intended to provide details of all the processing activities that we undertake and therefore the mere listing of an activity in this Notice does not mean that we are processing your personal information in this manner and for these purposes. If you have any questions about how the information presented relates to you, please do contact us using the relevant contact details.

What are the general legal grounds for processing personal information? 

The general legal grounds for processing all types of your personal information and what they mean are described further below:

Where we are relying on this ground as the basis for our processing, we will tell you what our legitimate interests are and you will see these in this Notice.  
We can carry out any actions we consider are needed for these interests, as long as we consider that the processing in question does not negatively infringe on your rights and interests. 
We can process your personal information where you have given clear consent for us to process such personal information for a specific purpose. 
We can process your personal information where the processing is necessary for us to perform a task in the public interest or an official function, and the task or function has a clear basis in law.
