So how would fraud prevention be interpreted?

For eg: denying service from a German retailer depending on the ML prediction result of the transaction being classified as fraud probable(Germany has pay by invoice), would also be constitutional or not?

Or credit score/risk rating using ML, trained on a feature extracted from parameters like Zip code, ethnicity could also classified as automated data analysis for prevention of criminal acts, right?

Or this is only applicable to police?



In general a retailer can refuse any customer for any reason (unless you're discriminating against a protected class)

The reason they do this isn't to fight crime, but to save the business from losing money. So I don't see how a ruling about preventing crime would apply.


Only applicable to police use.
