The aforementioned legitimate interest of the controller is based on a meaningful and appropriate relationship between the data subject and the controller, which results from the fact that the data subject is a customer of the controller, and where the processing takes place for purposes which the data subject could reasonably have expected at the time of the collection of the personal data and in the context of the appropriate relationship.
