Article 24 – Automated individual decision-making, including profiling

Its wording is printed below, under Article 24(1), (2) and (3).

The data subject shall have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning him or her or similarly significantly affects him or her, unless such processing:

is necessary for entering into, or performance of, a contract between the data subject and a data controller;

is authorised by Union law to which the controller is subject and which also lays down suitable measures to safeguard the data subject's rights and freedoms and legitimate interests; or

is based on the data subject's explicit consent.

In the cases referred to in points (a) and (c) of paragraph 1, the data controller shall implement suitable measures to safeguard the data subject's rights and freedoms and legitimate interests, at least the right to obtain human intervention on the part of the controller, to express his or her point of view and to contest the decision.

Decisions referred to in paragraph 1 shall not be based on special categories of personal data referred to in Article 10(1), unless point (a) or (g) of Article 10(2) applies and suitable measures to safeguard the data subject's rights and freedoms and legitimate interests are in place.
