In limited circumstances, we may process special categories of personal information, which are categories of information that the relevant applicable law considers to be more sensitive. This may include information about your health, race or ethnic origin, or political opinions in the context of a claim that we are funding and in which you are a party or otherwise implicated. In the same context, we may also process information about criminal offenses or convictions associated with you.
Where required by applicable law, we may ask you to confirm your express consent to the processing of such special or sensitive personal information.
Whenever we process special category information subject to the GDPR, we will rely on a special exemption that permits us to process that information. Typically, that will be because the processing is necessary for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims or whenever courts are acting in their judicial capacity. Whenever we process criminal data, we will rely on an exemption under relevant Member State or UK law.
