The “legitimate interests” and “direct marketing” categories above are the ones most likely to apply to our Website Users and Customers. If your objection relates to Turiya Charity, processing your personal data because we deem it necessary for your legitimate interests, we must act on your objection by ceasing the activity in question unless:
• Turiya Charity can demonstrate that we have compelling legitimate grounds for processing which overrides your interests
