The GDPR classifies certain data as belonging to “special categories”, as follows:·

- Political opinions;
- Religious beliefs;
- Membership to a trade-union;
- Genetic data;

The GDPR requires that consent is provided by the data subject for all types of personal data, including those pertaining to the special categories set out above and otherwise. Consent must be explicitly provided. When Purple Banana requests sensitive data from data subjects, it is required to confirm why the information is required and how it will be used.

- where we use a service provider who is a member of a larger corporate group and this will involve the service provider transferring personal data outside the UK (but within their group of companies) the service provider may have binding corporate rules in place (checked and verified by us).
