7. USE OF AUTOMATED DECISION-MAKING AND PROFILING
As part of our Platform, we may use artificial intelligence and large language models, to assist brands, rightsholders, and talent in evaluating sponsorship opportunities and making evidence-based decisions. Automated decision-making within the Platform is powered by algorithms designed to process data inputs provided by users and trusted third parties (such as Nielsen, YouGov, and other verified sources). These processes are intended to standardise sponsorship decision-making and provide explainable confidence scores, ensuring that decisions are traceable and defensible.
The logic behind our automation involves applying deterministic rules and formulas to assess and express confidence in sponsorship value creation. For example, our platform may evaluate the compatibility of sponsorship proposals with brand objectives, calculate Value Creation Confidence, or analyse the delivery of sponsorship rights against agreed contractual terms. This enables brands to make informed choices about sponsorship investments while reducing risk and uncertainty.
The use of automation within the Platform is designed to enhance the transparency, fairness, and consistency of sponsorship decisions. The outcomes of these processes may influence a brand’s decision to enter into, renew, or decline sponsorship agreements. For rightsholders and talent, profiling may impact their visibility or attractiveness to potential brand partners based on the evidence and metrics they provide or that are available in the Platform.
UK and EEA
For the purposes of Articles 22B and 22C of the UK GDPR:
• A decision is considered to be based solely on automated processing if there is no meaningful human involvement in the taking of the decision.
• A decision is deemed to be a significant decision in relation to a data subject if it produces a legal effect or has a similarly significant effect on the data subject.
When determining whether there is meaningful human involvement, factors such as the extent to which the decision relies on profiling are taken into account. While automated decision-making is central to the functionality of the Platform, significant decisions are not taken solely on the basis of automated processing without appropriate safeguards in place.
In accordance with Article 22B, we ensure that significant decisions based entirely or partly on the processing of personal data are not taken solely on automated processing unless one of the following conditions is met:
• The data subject has given explicit consent to the processing.
• The processing is necessary for entering into or performing a contract between the data subject and the controller, or is required or authorised by law.
• Where processing involves special categories of personal data (such as data revealing racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, or health data), additional safeguards are in place to ensure compliance with Article 9 of the UK GDPR.
In line with Article 22C, we have implemented robust safeguards to protect the rights, freedoms, and legitimate interests of data subjects when significant decisions are made based solely on automated processing. These safeguards include:
• Providing data subjects with clear and accessible information about automated decisions taken in relation to them.
• Allowing data subjects to make representations regarding such decisions.
• Enabling data subjects to request human intervention in the decision-making process.
• Giving data subjects the ability to contest automated decisions that significantly affect them.
Australia
For the purpose of the AU Privacy Act, the table below summarises information on our automated decision-making programs:
The kinds of personal data used in the automated decision-making program on our Platform: The Sailias platform does not use personal information in its automated scoring processes. The platform uses business information provided by customers, such as sponsorship investment data, partnership objectives, and performance metrics, to measure and attribute sponsorship value.
The kinds of decisions made solely by the automated decision-making program on our Platform: No decisions are made solely by automated programs on the Sailias platform. The platform produces automated scores and assessments that inform human decision-making by our customers. No personal information is used in this process.
The kinds of decisions where an important and direct part of making the decision is carried out by the automated decision-making program on our Platform: The platform uses automated scoring to evaluate sponsorship proposals and investments against attribution and value creation criteria. These scores inform but do not replace human decision-making by our customers. Only business information provided by customers is used in this process — no personal information is collected or used by the automated program to produce these outputs.
We ensure that automated processes are explainable and traceable. Every confidence score or decision within the Platform is linked to the underlying data, the logic applied, and the evidence used, ensuring transparency and accountability.
Automated decision-making and profiling within Alias may impact the visibility of Rightsholders, Talent or Brands, as well as a Brand’s ability to assess the value of sponsorship opportunities. However, the Platform does not make final decisions on behalf of users, as significant decisions remain subject to meaningful human involvement.
If you believe you have been affected by an automated decision or wish to exercise your rights, please contact us at privacy@sailias.com.
8. SAFETY AND SECURITY
Security Measures
We use industry standard security measures to safeguard and protect your personal data from misuse, loss, and unauthorised access, modification and disclosure. Some examples of these measures include:
• adhering to information security compliance programs standards;
• use of multifactor authentication systems to secure services with encryption of all data at rest and in transit;
• restricted access privileges to monitor and control access to our IT systems;
• imposing restrictions on physical access to paper files or secure areas;
• requiring any third parties we engage to provide appropriate assurances to handle personal data in a manner consistent with the Applicable Privacy Laws; and
• taking reasonable steps to securely destroy or de-identify personal data after it is no longer required.
If the AU Privacy Act applies, while we take reasonable steps to maintain the security of our internet connections, for reasons outside our control, information transmitted to us over the internet may not be absolutely secure. You acknowledge that:
• you provide your personal data to us at your own risk, and we assume no responsibility for the disclosure of data due to errors in transmission. Except for our sub-processors, we are not liable for any loss, damage or claim arising out of another person’s use of the personal data where we were authorised to provide that person with the personal data.
Data Breach
If you suspect any misuse or loss of, or unauthorised access, modification or disclosure to, your personal data, you should let us know immediately by contacting us on the contact details set out in Section 2.
If the AU Privacy Act applies to you, where we become aware of any breach to our security systems that breaches or is likely to result in a breach of your rights or freedoms with respect to your personal data, we will notify you and the Office of Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC) of such breach, as required. We will also include recommendations about the steps you should take in response to the breach in our notice to you.
If the UK or EU GDPR applies to you, where we become aware of a personal data breach that is likely to result in a high risk to your rights and freedoms, we will notify you without undue delay and we will notify the relevant data protection supervisory authority as required.
9. INTERNATIONAL DATA TRANSFERS
UK and EEA
For individuals in the UK or EEA, the personal data that we collect may be transferred to, and stored at, a destination outside the EEA or the UK, including countries, which offer less protection when compared to those in the EEA or the UK.
As such, if we transfer personal data outside the UK or EEA, we will implement appropriate and suitable safeguards to ensure that such personal data will be protected as required by applicable data protection law.
In these cases, we rely on approved data transfer mechanisms, including legal exceptions, adequacy decisions, recognised frameworks (e.g. the EU-US Data Privacy Framework), and standard contractual clauses. If you are located in the UK or the EEA, you may contact us for a copy of the safeguards and for further information as to the safeguards we implement

For individuals in Australia, we may share your personal data with our service providers for the purposes set out in Section 6 of this Privacy Policy. This will involve transferring your data outside of Australia.
Whenever we transfer your personal data out of Australia, we ensure a similar degree of protection is afforded to it by ensuring at least one of the following safeguards is implemented:
• we will only transfer your personal data to countries that have been deemed to provide an adequate level of protection for personal data; or
• where transfers to the EEA or the UK take place, we may (if required by law) use specific contractual clauses approved for use in the UK and EEA which give personal data the same protection it has in the UK and EEA.
We require all third parties to respect the security of your personal data and to treat it in accordance with the Applicable Privacy Law. We do not allow our third-party service providers to use your personal data for their own purposes and only permit them to process your personal data for specified purposes and in accordance with our instructions.
