The legal basis that we rely on to process your personal data is article 6(1)(f) of the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR), which allows us to process personal data when this is necessary for our legitimate interests.

As an NHS business partner, Interface also processes personal information under contract to data controllers at healthcare organisations.
