DPA 2018
Data Protection Act 2018 · United Kingdom
For the purposes of sections 50B and 50C— a decision is based solely on automated processing if there is no meaningful human involvement in the taking of the decision, and a decision is a significant decision, in relation to a data subject, if— it produces an adverse legal effect for the data subject, or it has a similarly significant adverse effect for the data subject. When considering whether there is meaningful human involvement in the taking of a decision, a person must consider, among other things, the extent to which the decision is reached by means of profiling.
