Legitimate-use processing permits personal-data use for voluntary requests, public functions, legal compliance, emergencies, disasters, and employment safeguards.

A Data Fiduciary may process personal data for the specified purpose for which a Data Principal voluntarily supplies it, provided the Data Principal has not indicated non-consent, and must cease processing when requested assistance is no longer required. Processing is also permitted for prescribed State benefits and functions, legally required disclosures, compliance with judgments or orders, medical emergencies, public-health threats, disasters, public-order breakdowns, and employment purposes. Employment-related processing includes protection against loss or liability, prevention of corporate espionage, confidentiality of trade secrets, intellectual property or classified information, and provision of employee-requested services or benefits.
