What is the legal basis of this data processing?

The basis used in this processing is the legitimate interest. This basis is elaborated as follows:

The legitimate interest here concerns the interest of the controller to have its employees further developed by offering courses in an accessible manner.

This interest is weighed against the data protection interests of the UU employees who will use this portal.

In view of the above facts, it can be concluded that this data processing is balanced and can take place on the basis of legitimate interest.
