What record it asks for
Logging duty
Article 11 bars a decision producing legal effects on a person from resting solely on automated processing meant to profile them, with exceptions for contract decisions the person could comment on and decisions granting the person's own request. It is a prohibition and requires no log or record to be made, kept or produced. No scope clause is cited.

What this law does
Article 11 bars a decision producing legal effects for a person from resting solely on automated processing meant to define their profile or evaluate an aspect of their personality. A parallel first sentence restricts a judicial decision the same way, but that clause binds only courts and carries no 'solely' qualifier.
The prohibition does not apply to a decision made in concluding or performing a contract on which the person had a chance to comment, or to a decision that grants the person's own request. The law's final and transitional articles state no day of its own for its entry into force.
