We try to strike a balance between the security of your data and your convenience. As a result, we may sometimes use a method of communication that is less secure than a less convenient alternative. For example, we may send you an e-mail or a text message in unencrypted form (i.e. instantly readable) because many of our customers are unable to access encrypted (i.e. coded) e-mail or messages. This means that our message, if misrouted or intercepted, could be read more easily than encrypted messages. Such messages may contain personal data.

This information is relevant since we made a risk assessment implying that it is not commercially desirable to rent out certain categories of vehicles to people under a certain age or with a low credit rating.

You have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on any form of automated decision-making, including profiling, if the decision may have legal consequences for you or in a significant way affects you in any other way.
