This implies that the organisation must make it clear why and how the data will be pro-
cessed at the point of collection. Figure 4.8 suggests some of the issues that should be con-
sidered when a data subject is informed of how the data will be used. Important issues are:
● 
Whether future communications will be sent to the individual (explicit consent is 
required for this in online channels).
● 
Whether the data will be passed on to third parties (again explicit consent is required).
● 
How long the data will be kept.
