Please note that the revocation only works for the future; processing that took place before the revocation is not affected.

8. Is there a duty for me to provide data?

As part of our business relationship, you must provide the personal information necessary to enter into a business relationship and perform its contractual obligations, or we are required to collect it by law. Without this information, we will generally not be able to enter into contractual relationship or provide you with our services.

In particular, according to the money laundering regulations, we may be obliged to identify you prior to the establishment of a business relationship on the basis of your identity document and to record the name, place of birth, date of birth, nationality, address and identity card details. In order for us to be able to fulfill this legal obligation, you must provide us with the necessary information and documents in accordance with the Anti Money Laundering Act and immediately notify us of any changes that occur during the business relationship. If you do not provide us with the necessary information and documents, we may not start or continue a potential business relationship with you.

9. To what Extent is there an automated decision-making process ?

To establish and conduct the business relationship, we use automated credit decisions in accordance with Article 22 GDPR. If required by law, we inform the customer in such a case, taking into account the provisions of Article 13 paragraph 2 lit. f GDPR specifically about this and its rights under Article 22 (3) GDPR.

Further information can be found in section 10 of this privacy policy.

10. Is Profiling taking place ?

We sometimes process your data automatically with the aim of evaluating certain personal aspects (so-called profiling). For example, we use profiling in the following cases:

Due to legal and regulatory requirements, we are committed to combating money laundering, the financing of terrorism and property-related offenses. At the same time, data evaluations are also carried out (inter alia in payment transactions). At the same time, these measures serve as protection to you as a customer. In order to provide you with targeted information and advice on products, we use evaluation tools that enable needs-based communication and advertising, including market and opinion research.

As part of the assessment of your onboarding, we use so-called scoring. This calculates the riskiness with which a customer may be onboarded or not.
