This Website uses automated decision-making processes to the extent necessary to conclude or perform a contract between the User and the Data Controller or, if required by law, with the prior consent of the User.

Automated decisions depend on technological tools provided by the Data Controller or third parties and are generally based on algorithms that respond to predefined criteria. The logic behind automated decision-making processes aims at:

• enabling or improving the decision-making process;
• ensuring fair and impartial treatment of Users;
• reducing potential damage resulting from human error, personal bias, or other similar circumstances that could result in discrimination or imbalance in the treatment of individuals; and
• reducing the risk of User’s failure to meet its obligations under a contract.

To obtain further information on the purposes, any third-party services and the specific logic of the automated decision-making processes adopted by this Website, the User may refer to the relevant sections of this document.
