Using a set theory/Venn diagram approach here is my one shot comment here: We are taking about the act of "processing" here. The universe of processes can be divided into Lawful and Unlawful. None of the Unlawful are Legal. Of the Lawful some are coded into law (and may have forms/procedures that must accompany processing). They are Legal (in a technical sense). Legal is an identifiable subset within Lawful. Here if one wants to cast the "right to process" with a wide net, go for Lawful. If one wants to cast the "right to process" with a narrow net, go for Legal. If one wants Integrity, well that is a whole other kettle of fish. As I read that, if one wants to restrict access to Law Enforcement Agencies and Court Orders, one goes for Legal. If one wants access by misc. security interests, detectives, fraud hunters, etc. one goes for Lawful.
