Art.5(1)(b) Purpose limitation

GDPR · 2016/679

Personal data shall be: (b) collected for specified, explicit and legitimate purposes and not further processed in a manner that is incompatible with those purposes; further processing for archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes or statistical purposes shall, in accordance with Article 89(1), not be considered to be incompatible with the initial purposes (‘purpose limitation’);

Quoted verbatim from Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR), consolidated text, which is in the public domain.
