sensitive data on legal bases for example: the detection and prevention of fraud and compliance with
applicable law.

What Legal Basis Does ASI Have for Processing Your Personal Data?

We will only process your personal information where we have a legal basis to do so. The legal basis will
depend on the purposes for which we have collected and used the personal information. In almost every
case the legal basis will be one of the following:

Consent: For example, where consent has been provided to receive certain marketing from us.
Consent can be withdrawn at any time, including by clicking on the “unsubscribe” link at the
bottom of any marketing email.
Our legitimate business interests: Where it is necessary for us to understand our customers,
promote our services and operate effectively as a global electrification solution company.
Provided that in each case, this is done in a legitimate way, which does not unduly affect the
privacy or rights of the users. For example, we will rely on this legal basis when we conduct
certain market surveys to understand our customers in sufficient detail so we can provide quality
products and services.
Performance of a contract: This would also apply where we need take steps prior to entering into
a contract. For example, where a party has purchased a product or services from us, and we need
to use their contact details and payment information in order to process the order and send the
product.
Compliance with law: Where we are subject to a legal obligation and need to use personal
information in order to comply with that obligation.
