Legal basis

draft

The legal basis under GDPR Art 6(1) (or equivalent law) authorizing the processing. Cardinality multiple because a single record may rely on more than one basis; normative usage on a ConsentRecord is one basis. On a PrivacyNotice, multiple bases may coexist if the notice covers multiple processing operations. Field-critical: populate even if your UI does not require it.
