What this law does
General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) Article 22 gives a person in Slovakia 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. Section 28 of Act No. 18/2018 Z. z. restates this rule without adding an authorisation or safeguard.
