5. LEGAL GROUNDS FOR THE PROCESSING
In accordance with article 111-bis of the Privacy Code and Article 6(1)(b) of the Data Protection Regulation, the processing of Candidates’ personal data carried out for Assessment Purposes is necessary, given its vital role for the purpose of:
- establishing whether a Candidate may be employed in the cases provided for in Section 4(a) and (b);

Should a Candidate fail to provide the personal data necessary for the Assessment Purposes, it will not be possible for the Company to assess his/her professional profile and, consequently, to recruit him/her.
The processing of a Candidate’s personal data for the Legitimate Interest Purposes referred to in Section(4)(d) and (e) is carried out in accordance with Article 6(1)(f) of the Data Protection Regulation for the pursuit of the legitimate interest of the Company, which is equally balanced with the interest of the Candidate, as the processing of personal data is limited to what is strictly necessary for the exercise of the Company’s rights and for the performance of the required financial transactions.
Processing for the Legitimate Interest purposes is not mandatory and Candidates may object to such processing in the manner set out in Section 9 below, but if they do objects to such processing, their data may not be used for the Legitimate Interest purposes, except in the event that the Company proves the presence of compelling legitimate reasons or the exercise or defense of a right pursuant to Article 21 of the Data Protection Regulation.
6. PROCESSING METHODS

For the Legitimate Interest purposes mentioned above, the personal data of Candidates may be transferred to the following categories of recipients, located within the European Union: (a) potential purchasers of the Company and entities resulting from the merger or any other form of transformation concerning the Company; (b) competent authorities.
