Automated Decision-Making

Overview

Article 22 of the UK GDPR provides individuals with the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal or similarly significant effects.

A dismissal by an algorithm without meaningful human review may breach this rule.

What you can do

• Request human intervention and an explanation of the automated decision.
• Submit a Subject Access Request (SAR) to uncover how the algorithm functions and what data it used.
