25. PROFILING AND AUTOMATED INDIVIDUAL DECISIONS

We may automatically evaluate personal aspects relating to You (“profiling”) based on your Personal Data for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy, where We wish to determine preference data, but also in order to detect misuse and security risks, to perform statistical analysis or for operational planning. We may also create profiles for these purposes, i.e., we may combine behavioral and preference data, but also other Personal Data relating to You in order to better understand You as a person with Your various interests and other characteristics. We may also create anonymous and – with Your consent – personalized motion profiles of You.

We pay attention to the proportionality and reliability of the results and take measures against misuse of these profiles or profiling. Where these can produce legal effects concerning You or similarly significantly affect You, We generally ensure human review. In certain situations, it may be necessary for the efficiency and consistency of decision-making processes that We automate discretionary decisions that produce legal effects concerning You or similarly significantly affect You (“automated individual decisions”). In these cases, We will inform You accordingly and take the measures required by applicable law.
