Research summary

Legal information, not legal advice. This is LexLint's own research summary of a public legal source, and it creates no attorney-client relationship. For decisions that matter, consult qualified counsel in the relevant jurisdiction. About LexLint

General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) Article 22 gives a person in Greece the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, that produces legal effects or similarly significantly affects them, unless the decision is necessary for a contract with them, authorised by a law that safeguards their rights, or based on their explicit consent.

Where it rests on a contract or consent, the controller must at least let the person obtain human intervention, express their point of view and contest the decision. Law 4624/2019 adds no rule of its own on automated decisions by a private controller; its automated-decision article (Art. 52) applies only to competent authorities processing for law-enforcement purposes.
