Artificial Intelligence (AI) Systems:
We use AI Systems that process personal data to enable us to improve our services and user experiences. We remain vigilant when using AI to protect personal data, ensuring customer privacy, and preventing unauthorised or fraudulent activity. Our customers and stakeholders shall remain confident that personal data is adequately protected with us, especially in cases where AI is used to deliver the product or service, as this may infer heightened protection where AI is deployed.
How we use AI Systems
This notice gives you information on how we protect your personal data in our use of the AI System.
Personal data may be processed within our AI Systems. We remain the data controller for your personal data when it is processed while using our AI Systems. We process personal data in accordance with the relevant data protection laws. In the case where we have engaged a processor, we have mandated contracts that uphold our standards in compliance with the relevant data protection laws.
We will sometimes process customers' personal data when using AI Systems. We have regulated the use of AI internally, weighed the opportunities and risks in advance of our use of AI and ensured appropriate human supervision where important matters are concerned. Where we offer dialogues with an AI, we will make this evident and, if necessary, point out potential errors.
Personal Data Processed by AI Systems
We may collect personal data either directly from you, third parties or public sources. We process your personal data using AI Systems to improve the efficiency, quality, and speed of our business processes and for the purpose of providing services. When using AI systems, we may process various types of personal data. For more information, please refer to the section titled "What do we collect from you and how do we use it?".
In limited circumstances, we may process sensitive data through the AI System, but we will ensure that we have the necessary lawful basis in place before doing so.
