Legal Basis for Processing Personal Information (EEA Visitors Only)
If you are a visitor/customer located in the European Economic Area (EEA), Crossland is the data controller of your PII. Crossland can be contacted at info@crossland.com. Our legal basis for collecting and using PII as described above will depend on the PII concerned and the specific context in which we collect it. However, we will generally only collect PII from you when we have your consent to do so, when we need PII to perform a contract with you, or when the processing is in our legitimate interests and not overridden by your data protection interests or fundamental rights and freedoms. In some cases, we may also have a legal obligation to collect PII from you. If we ask you to provide PII to comply with a legal requirement or to perform a contract with you, we will make this clear at the relevant time and advise you whether the provision of your PII is mandatory or not as well as of the possible consequences of not providing such information. Similarly, if we collect and use your PII in reliance on our legitimate interests (or those of any third-party), we will make clear to you at the relevant time what those legitimate interests are.
