10. 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.

The website directory listing process involves a multi-step process for users to register and create a listing. The first step is for users to register as a subscriber, which gives them access to a personal account dashboard where they can manage their payments, personal information, profile picture, and other basic payment features. The site also employs subscription functionality, which means that users can sign up for one of three packages: Basic, Professional, or Premium. Auto-renew is enabled by default, but users can turn this off or physically cancel their subscription at any time.

Once a user selects a package, they are directed to a form where they can build their listing by entering their business information, descriptions, amenities, images, videos, and GPS location. Listings are auto-approved, but if they violate the website's policies, the admin reserves the right to cancel the listing and issue a refund. Community members can find listings by searching or selecting categories, and listing owners can edit their listings at any time. The listing also includes a private messaging feature for site visitors to contact business owners, and a review and rating section.

Automated decision-making processes are involved in the website's subscription functionality, which automatically provides specific features depending on the chosen package. The consequences of these automated decisions include the provision of different levels of access and functionality to users, depending on their subscription package. The logic behind these decisions is based on the specific features included in each package, with higher-tier packages providing more features and functionality than lower-tier ones.

In summary, the website directory listing process involves several automated processes, including subscription functionality, which provide specific features and functionality to users based on their chosen package. The consequences of these automated decisions include the level of access and functionality provided to users, and the logic behind these decisions is based on the features included in each package.
