All Implemented Interfaces:

GDPRConfigurationElementI

public class ProcessingPurpose
extends AbstractIdentifiableGDPRConfiguration

Represents a processing purpose within the GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) configuration.

This class extends `AbstractIdentifiableGDPRConfiguration` to provide a specific representation of a processing purpose, which is a legitimate reason for a company to process personal data. It inherits the Id management and caching functionality from its parent class and offers a convenient `byId` method for retrieving instances by their unique Id.

Constructor Detail

ProcessingPurpose

public ProcessingPurpose(electric.xml.Element element,
                         java.lang.String id)

Constructs a `ProcessingPurpose` with the given XML element and Id.

Parameters:

element - The XML element representing this processing purpose.

id - The unique identifier for this processing purpose.

Method Detail

byId

public static ProcessingPurpose byId(java.lang.String id)

Retrieves a `ProcessingPurpose` by its unique Id.

Parameters:

id - The unique identifier of the processing purpose.

Returns:

The `ProcessingPurpose` with the specified Id, or null if not found.

addLegalBasis

public void addLegalBasis(java.lang.String legalBasisId)

Adds a processing legal basis Id to this data category.

Parameters:

legalBasisId - The Id of the processing legal basis to add.

linkAndValidateGDPRObjects

public void linkAndValidateGDPRObjects()

Links and validates the GDPR configuration elements.

This method performs two key functions:

1. Linking: Resolves references to other GDPR configuration elements by their Ids, establishing the necessary relationships between them.
2. Validation: Ensures the integrity of the configuration by checking the existence and validity of all linked elements. This helps to maintain a robust and error-free GDPR configuration.

Subclasses must provide a concrete implementation for this method to perform the necessary linking and validation checks.

This implementation performs no specific checks. Subclasses may override this method to add their own checks.

This implementation also verifies that the referenced processing legal bases exist.

Specified by:

linkAndValidateGDPRObjects in interface GDPRConfigurationElementI

Overrides:

linkAndValidateGDPRObjects in class AbstractIdentifiableGDPRConfiguration

getLegalBases

public java.util.Collection<ProcessingLegalBasis> getLegalBases()

Returns the collection of processing legal bases associated with this data category.

Returns:

The collection of ProcessingLegalBasis objects.
