  7. LEGAL BASIS FOR PROCESSING PERSONAL DATA

    Processing of Personal Data requires a legal basis. The most predominant legal basis for processing Personal Data within Investor Cash Management are: (i) Consent from the data subject for one or more specific purposes; (ii) The performance of a contract to which the data subject is party; (iii) A legal obligation or requirement; and (iv) legitimate interests pursued by Investor Cash Management.

    • Consent. If the collection, registration and further processing of Personal Data on clients, suppliers, other business relations and employees are based on such a person’s consent to the processing of Personal Data for one or more specific purposes, Investor Cash Management shall be able to demonstrate that the data subject has consented to processing of such Personal Data. Consent shall be freely given, specific, informed and unambiguous. The data subject must actively consent to the processing of Personal Data by a statement or by a clear affirmative action, to him/her. A request for consent shall be presented in a manner which is clearly distinguishable from other matters, in an intelligible and easily accessible form, and using clear and plain language. To process special categories of Personal Data (sensitive Personal Data) the consent shall also be explicit. The data subject is entitled to withdraw his/her consent at any time and upon such withdrawal, we will stop collecting or processing Personal Data about that person unless we are obligated or entitled to do so based on another legal basis.
    • Necessary for the Performance of a Contract. It will be legitimate to collect and process Personal Data relevant to the performance of a contract to which the data subject is party or in order to take steps at the request of the data subject prior to entering into a contract. This applies to all contractual obligations and agreements signed with Investor Cash Management, including the pre-contractual phase irrespective of the success of the contract negotiation or not.
    • Comply with a Legal Obligation. Investor Cash Management must comply with various legal obligations and requirements. Such legal obligation, to which Investor Cash Management is subject, may be sufficient as a legitimate basis for processing of Personal Data. Investor Cash Management and entities to which it is contracted to provide services are required to comply with U.S. Securities, Banking, and Treasury Laws, such as the Bank Secrecy Act. Such legal obligations include obligations to collect, register and/or make available certain types of information relating to clients. Such legal requirements will then form the legal basis for us to process the Personal Data, however, it is important to note whether the provisions allowing or requiring Investor Cash Management to process certain Personal Data also set out requirements in relation to storage, disclosure and deletion.
    • Legitimate Interests. Data will only be processed where it is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by Investor Cash Management, and these interests or fundamental rights are not overridden by the interests of the data subject. Investor Cash Management will, when deciding to process data ensures that the legitimate interests override the rights and freedoms of the individual and that the processing would not cause unwarranted harm. For instance, it is a legitimate interest of Investor Cash Management to process Personal Data on potential customers in order to verify the identity of the customer. The data subject must be given information on the specific legitimate interest if a processing is based on this provision.
