We work with third parties who are individually registered with the ICO (Meltwater, Audiense, and Clash Digital) to curate this data for our analysis purposes. The data is pseudonymised for analysis (processing) by them. The data is anonymised for analysis (processing) by us. 

We do not collect, process, or store individual users’ demographic or geographic data unless it is provided by directly to us with explicit consent.

Legal basis: Third party consent of the user, which is verified by the relevant Data Processors. Processing of this data is carried out on the basis of conducting a public task.
