Even where Spork Media has a legitimate interest in processing your personal data, it will not do so to the extent that processing would override your interests, rights and freedoms to protect your personal data.

Processing shall be lawful, among other things, if:
- the data subject has given consent to the processing of his or her personal data for one or more specific purposes. Article 6(1)(a) of the Regulation.
- processing is necessary for 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. Article 6(1)(b) of the Regulation.
- processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which the controller is subject. Article 6(1)(c) of the Regulation.
- processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by the controller or by a third party, except where such interests are overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject which require protection of personal data, in particular where the data subject is a child. Article 6(1)(f) of the Regulation.

Principles we apply the processing of personal data:

- Personal data shall be processed lawfully, fairly and in a transparent manner in relation to the data subject.
- Personal data shall be collected for specified, explicit and legitimate purposes and not further processed in a manner that is incompatible with those purposes.
- Personal data shall be adequate, relevant and limited to what is necessary in relation to the purposes for which they are processed.
- Personal data shall be accurate and, where necessary, kept up to date; every reasonable step must be taken to ensure that personal data that are inaccurate, having regard to the purposes for which they are processed, are erased or rectified without delay.
- Personal data shall be kept in a form which permits identification of data subjects for no longer than is necessary for the purposes for which the personal data are processed.
- Personal data shall be processed in a manner that ensures appropriate security of the personal data, including protection against unauthorised or unlawful processing and against accidental loss, destruction or damage, using appropriate technical or organisational measures.

We keep your information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this privacy policy unless otherwise required by law. We will delete your personal information whenever the purpose of retention ends.
