Legitimate Interests

As noted in the ‘How We Use Your Personal Data’ section of this notice, Diversity Press occasionally processes your personal information under the ‘legitimate interests’ legal basis. Where this is the case, Diversity Press will have carried out a Legitimate Interests Assessment (LIA) to ensure your interests have been considered and any risk posed to you against our own and that such interests are proportionate and appropriate.

Diversity Press uses the legitimate interests’ legal basis for processing the type of data listed below and has identified our interests as detailed below;

Where you have consented to us using your details for direct marketing, we will keep such data until you notify us otherwise and/or withdraw your consent.

You can modify or withdraw consent at any time, which we will act on immediately, unless there is a legitimate or legal reason for not doing so.
