We may, in some cases, use automated decision-making, including machine learning algorithms, if you have provided explicit consent.

Profiling uses automated processing, which may involve machine learning algorithms.

When using automated decision-making, including machine learning algorithms, we can provide you with further information about the data used, the logic involved, as well as the rationale behind any decisions.

Legal basis for processing: Your explicit consent pursuant to Article 22(2)(c).

Your rights regarding our automated decision-making and profiling activities:

You have the right to request a team member to review the output of automated decision-making, including machine learning algorithms.
