- d1sxeyes 1y agoWhat's 'legitimate' and what isn't is up for interpretation, but the question of whose interests is clear in the text of the GDPR itself, and it's the controller's (or a third party's) interests which could form the basis of lawful processing. Interestingly, the GDPR specifically does not include 'benevolent' processing (i.e. processing for legitimate interests of the user) as a lawful basis.
