Furthermore, Article 6, section 1 lit. f) of the GDPR may constitute the legal basis for data processing, if the processing of your personal data is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by our company or by a third party, except where such interests are overridden by your interests or your fundamental rights and freedoms which require protection of personal data.
