"Deidentified or Aggregated Data" means data that has been processed so it does not identify any individual and cannot reasonably be re-identified, including data combined into summary or statistical form so that no individual can be identified.

"Personal Data Breach" has the meaning given in UK GDPR and includes equivalent concepts under applicable Data Protection Laws.
