9. Automated decision-making

We make decisions on the basis of automated processing with respect to matters that may have (significant) consequences for individuals. These are decisions taken by computer programmes or systems without human intervention.

Type of decisions made: We use automated processes to personalise marketing communications, including newsletters. Users who sign up to receive a back-in-stock alert for a product may also receive recommendations for similar products or special offers.

Consequences: Users may receive personalised emails based on their interest in a particular product. These emails may include suggestions for similar products, promotions, or information about new arrivals.

Logic behind these decisions: The logic behind these decisions is to enhance the user experience by offering relevant and personalised content. By analysing user preferences and interactions with our products, we aim to propose products or offers that may be of interest to them. No significant or detrimental decisions are made automatically; the purpose is solely to personalise marketing communications. We collect email addresses only with the user's explicit consent through a checkbox. This approach fully respects users' rights to privacy and data protection.
