Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

Generated by a model from the captured document; not read by a person

The absolute restriction on other uses or disclosures of sensitive personal information means Adyen has limited its own discretion and cannot rely on other bases to process this category of data.

⚠

Interpretive note: The evidence span is drawn from the final sentence of the excerpt, which states the restriction in absolute terms. The permitted disclosures are incorporated into the canonical claim from the first sentence of the excerpt, which is treated as context establishing what 'other purpose' excludes.
