To this end, during the process we will request that you provide a photograph of your identification document so that we can verify that the information provided is correct and matches the details you have submitted.

4.5. Analysis

4.5.1. Risk analysis and fraud prevention and detection

At Openbank, we are legally required to take the necessary measures to prevent and detect fraud, and we are committed to doing so to protect our customers against potential fraudulent or criminal activities, such as identity or password theft.

Accordingly, during the application process, we will check for signs of fraudulent activity using tools provided by companies specialising in fraud prevention. Through a process involving automated decision-making, we assess the data and information provided during your application to detect and prevent potentially fraudulent activity. We will also carry out various checks, such as verifying your identity and identifying any inconsistencies in the information provided, before you enter into a contract with us.

The consequence of these automated decisions is that, based on the analysis carried out, we will determine whether the identifying data provided is reliable and, therefore, whether we can proceed with your application to subsequently carry out a creditworthiness assessment.

To do this, we will use the data you provide (such as your email domain, age, and variables associated with the application you are making, as well as other variables and metadata related to the devices you use to submit your application, the browser you use, or the operating system); internal data from Openbank, including information we hold about you, such as your previous use of our services and data related to the device you use to request the Service; data from external sources (fraud prevention tools and service providers we consult and collaborate with, as explained in this section); information from public records, such as the Telecommunications Number Registry of the CNMC; and information shared with us by Amazon, as the data controller, regarding your purchase (product, category, brand, price, quantity, and delivery address) and their assessment of you as their customer in relation to “Fraud Prevention and Credit Risk.” For more information, please read Amazon’s Privacy Policy here or contact them directly.

We will determine whether or not you pose a fraud risk when our processing shows that your behaviour indicates possible fraudulent conduct, that it is inconsistent with your previous use of our services, or that you have attempted to hide your true identity. If you are not approved under the automated decisions described in this section, you shall not be given access to the Service.

In certain cases where an attempted fraud or suspected fraudulent activity is detected, the data will be used to proactively block the operation and, if necessary, to terminate the business relationship with the customer.

We have several control mechanisms in place to ensure that our automated decisions are correct. These mechanisms include ongoing testing and review of our decision models and exhaustive documentation of rejected applications and the rationale behind such decisions. If you have any concerns about the outcome, you can contact us and one of our analysts shall personally intervene to determine if the procedure was properly performed. You may also object in accordance with the following instructions.

Under the data protection law, you have the right to object to any automated decision with legal consequences or decisions that could otherwise significantly affect you. In this case, you can do this by sending an email to privacidad.es@zinia.com. Upon receiving your application, we will review the decision, taking into account any additional information and circumstances you may provide.

To carry out this processing, we will exchange information with third parties (including personal data) to the extent necessary to detect and prevent fraud, with the following third parties:

a. Emailage

We use the “Emailage” service provided by LexisNexis Risk Solutions (Europe) Limited (hereinafter, “LexisNexis”), which acts as the data controller. You can find more information on how they process your data in their privacy policy. You can exercise your data protection rights with respect to LexisNexis here.

We will process your email address and IP address through Emailage to generate a fraud risk rating. For this purpose, LexisNexis compares and evaluates the supplied data points with associated metadata (email data, IP geolocation data) and previous customer queries and fraud indicators provided to the LexisNexis global fraud network.

By using our fraud risk score alongside other checks we may carry out, we can assess the risk associated with the application or transaction and make decisions in an effort to detect and prevent fraud.

b. Threatmetrix

We use the “ThreatMetrix” service provided by LexisNexis, acting as a data processor on behalf of Openbank.

This service assists us in our fraud prevention processes by creating a device ID and determining the unique characteristics of the device (device fingerprints).

Device fingerprint data: IP address, location data, the start, end, and duration of web pages visited during the session, and other device information (language and country settings, screen information, colour depth, and information about installed browsers, plug-ins, software, and versions).

Transaction data: Title, first name, last name, and maiden name, date of birth, email address, phone number, and address (street, house number, postcode), as well as the amount of the funds requested.

The data mentioned above is stored and processed in order to prevent misuse and fraud, as described above.

c. CONFIRMA database.

This database is owned by Confirma Sistemas de Información, S.L. The data we share with them consists of information on goods and services transactions, which allows the generation of alerts and indicators to prevent potentially fraudulent activity related to these operations, for subsequent analysis. With regard to the CONFIRMA Database, we are required to inform you of the following:

The requesting persons are informed that the data of this request is reported to the Confirma Database, the purpose of which is to compare requests and transactions registered in the Database by the participating banks in order to detect possible fraud when signing up. This purpose implies, among others, assessing the probability of fraud from the request. The lawful basis for the processing of personal data is the legitimate interest of the joint data controllers to prevent fraud (Recital 47 GDPR), in order to avoid potential negative economic consequences and possible legal infringements by the requesting persons. Consulting the Confirma database is suitable for the purpose sought, and proportionate relative to the benefit obtained by the joint data controllers and the impact on the privacy of the requesting persons. In addition, the data processing falls within the reasonable expectations of the data subjects as it is a common practice and occurs within the framework of a contract application. To prevent damage and negative consequences for requesting persons, technical and organisational measures have been adopted to reinforce the confidentiality and security of this information.

The maximum term for data retention is five years.

The joint data controllers are Member Banks of the Confirma Database Regulations, and the data processor is Confirma Sistemas de Información, S.L., with address at Avda. de la Industria 18, TRES CANTOS (28760) MADRID. Requesting persons may consult the list of current Bank signatories to the Confirma Database Regulations at the website www.confirmasistemas.es.

The Confirma Database is accessible to banks that are signatories of its Regulations and that, in their field of activity, could be subject to fraud during the formalisation of contracts.

The Member Bank signatories of the Confirma Database Regulations may consult the data reported to the Confirma Database. No transfer of data to a third-party country or international organisation is envisaged.

In accordance with the data protection regulations in force, data subjects may exercise their rights of access, rectification, erasure, objection, restriction on processing, not to be subject to a legally binding decision based solely on automated processing, and portability, by contacting the data processor, CONFIRMA SISTEMAS DE INFORMACIÓN, S.L., at the above address. Data subjects may also exercise their right to file a claim with the Supervisory Authority.

CONFIRMA SISTEMAS DE INFORMATION, S.L., has appointed a Data Protection Officer who can be contacted via email dpo@confirmasistemas.es, for privacy-related requests concerning the Confirma Database.”

For the analyses we carry out, we use the information you provide during the registration process, such as your email domain, age, and variables associated with the application you are submitting, as well as other variables and metadata related to the devices you use to submit your application, the browser you use, or the operating system. We also use information from publicly accessible sources obtained from the INE, specifically income data based on your postcode, using household income statistics. Information last updated: 2023.

In addition, we may consult and obtain information from public records such as the public number registry (hereinafter, the “Telecommunications Number Registry”) of the National Securities Market Commission (CNMV) created under Royal Decree 2296/2004, of 10 December, approving the Regulation on electronic communications markets, network access and numbering. This registry contains information on which operator each assigned phone number corresponds to. If we verify in the Telecommunications Number Registry that your phone number is assigned to certain telecommunications operators, we will consider this as one of the factors which, together with others, could allow us to infer the existence of certain behaviours or patterns indicative of potentially fraudulent activity. These factors will be assessed collectively when determining whether to grant a product or service.

Please note that, as we are subject to anti-money laundering and counter-terrorist financing regulations, we will use the relevant information detailed in this section to prevent money laundering and terrorist financing, and to take the appropriate due diligence and reporting measures in accordance with the aforementioned regulations. This is because, in order to comply with the regulations, we must analyse and consider any complex, unusual, or economically unjustified behaviour that may indicate a potential offence against assets or the socio-economic order, such as fraud or scams in general.

The lawful basis for this processing is:

The categories of personal data that Openbank will process to carry out the purposes described above are as follows: identifying data; information relating to your personal characteristics; economic, financial, and insurance data; device data (IP address, location, websites visited, and other device information such as language, country, installed browsers, software versions, etc.); and unique identifiers, as explained throughout this section.

4.5.2. Creditworthiness analysis

We will process your personal data, obtained through Amazon, provided directly by you, and obtained from external sources explained below, in order to analyse and manage the approval of the provision of the Service and, if the Service is ultimately provided, to fulfil the obligations arising from it and maintain the contractual relationship with you.

In this way, submitting a Service application entails that Openbank will cross-check and profile your data according to the behavioural and risk models we have designed to predict your risk of default and thereby prevent situations that could be detrimental both to Openbank and to you (due to the risk of over-indebtedness)—in line with responsible lending regulations—and in compliance with the procedures, guarantees, and rights established by applicable law at all times. These obligations will remain in effect throughout the entire contractual relationship with our customers.

Accordingly, when you apply for the Service, as well as for its ongoing monitoring, we will use the aforementioned models to carry out profiling and assess your creditworthiness and financial capacity based on data obtained through Amazon, data provided directly by you or obtained from our internal sources, and information obtained from the following external sources:

Specifically, the categories of data we will obtain from these external sources are: information on your creditworthiness and potential delinquency; credit information; and geo-residential and sociodemographic information (obtained from postcode and province, including population and income data).

In addition, please note that, as part of the correct performance of the contract, during the Service application process, we may request sufficient evidence of your declared income. For this purpose, we can provide you with two options:

  • Submission of evidence through the account aggregation service of Tink AB (hereinafter, “Tink”). Please note that Tink will also process your data as a data controller and will transfer it to Openbank according to your instructions and in accordance with its privacy policy. Thus, through the accounts you have linked (external sources), we will obtain the following categories of data: your balances across different asset and liability products at other financial institutions; and the transactions on these accounts (including information on dates, amounts, descriptions, the sender of the transfer, and the recipient).
  • Submission of evidence through access to the General Treasury of Social Security (hereinafter, the “TGSS”). Openbank will provide you with a simple system to access the TGSS and provide us with the information held by the TGSS, including your employment history and/or contribution records, thereby allowing us to verify your employment status.

The logic applied to this automated profiling will involve analysing the amount of the requested loan and its term, together with the data obtained from the information sources mentioned above (both internal and external), in order to determine whether you will be able to meet the repayment of the requested loan and to assess the risk of over-indebtedness.

By combining all information sources and the analytical capabilities of our behavioural and risk models, it is possible, through a profiling process, to infer the payment behaviour of the personal loan applicant. This ensures that the customer’s repayment capacity is sufficient to cover the instalments arising from the requested amount and term, leaving an adequate remainder to meet their basic needs.

Please note that, as a result of this profiling, we may also approve or deny your Service application, for example, if we determine that, given your current indebtedness, you are unable to manage the repayment of future debts. If your application is denied, you will be duly informed, with specific notice provided if the denial is solely due to an existing debt with another entity recorded in a credit information system.

You may request information about the result of said profiling in order to receive an explanation as to the decision made, express your point of view regarding said decision, object to the result of the profiling, and request involvement from the responsible team within Openbank to review the decision made as a result of the profiling. You may submit any additional documentation you consider necessary for this purpose.

The lawful basis for this profiling includes the following:

The categories of personal data that Openbank will process to carry out the purposes described above are as follows: identifying data; information relating to your personal characteristics; economic, financial, and insurance data; employment data; as well as any data we obtain from the external sources listed.

4.6.1. Storing data for use in future product and service applications with Zinia

If you consent, we will store the necessary information about the payment methods you provide, such as card numbers or IBANs, to help you select them for future transactions or service applications with Zinia, thereby simplifying and speeding up these processes.

The lawful basis for this processing is:

  • The explicit consent you have given us to process this data. Please note that, if you change your mind, you may withdraw the consent you have given us through the Zinia Customer Area, as indicated in section 11, “What rights do you have regarding the processing of your personal data?”.

Openbank, as a bank, is required to comply with Law 10/2010, of 28 April, on anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing, and consequently must process your personal data for this purpose, including, but not limited to, the following activities:

  • Reporting, on a monthly basis, to the Financial Holdings Database, the identifying data of our customers (or that of their representatives or proxies in the case of legal-person customers) and authorised parties regarding the opening or cancellation date of accounts. The above data will form part of this Database, which is managed by the Secretariat of State for the Economy and Business Support. Please note that, in accordance with Article 23 of the GDPR and Article 32 of Law 10/2010 on Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorism Financing, the rights set out in Articles 15 to 22 of the GDPR do not apply to files and processing of personal data created and managed by the Executive Service of the Commission for the Prevention of Money Laundering and Monetary Offences (hereinafter, “SEPBLAC”) for the fulfilment of the functions conferred on it by this Law.
  • Providing information on payment transactions and other necessary data, in compliance with the aforementioned regulations, to authorities or official bodies, including those both within and outside the European Union, as part of efforts to combat terrorist financing and serious organised crime, and to prevent money laundering. Of particular relevance, for these purposes, is the exchange of information between SEPBLAC and the Spanish Tax Agency, fully in accordance with the provisions of Articles 94.4 and 95.1 (i) of Law 58/2003, of 17 December, General Taxation Law.
  • Consultation of external databases for the purpose of anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing compliance. For this, available data is checked against the information in external databases, various alerts on banking transactions are established and analysed, and the appropriate measures are applied in accordance with applicable regulations.

  • Verify the accuracy of the information and documents you provide in order to ascertain the nature of your professional or business activity and the source of funds, and to provide them to authorities or official bodies in other countries, both within and outside the European Union, as well as to other companies within the Santander Group, within the framework of combating the financing of terrorism and serious organised crime, and preventing money laundering.
  • To reliably verify your identity using a valid ID document. To do so, we will store your identification document (including your image) and, if necessary, display it through any means, formats and media, for the sole purpose of verifying your identity when necessary to comply with the contract signed with you in your capacity as customer (as is the case when a claim is filed) and to meet the requirements of the competent authorities and/or comply with our legal obligations.
  • For the above purpose, as part of the verifiable verification of your identity, we will check that the information you provide matches the information contained in the official documents we hold (for example, your National ID number. If there is any discrepancy, we will update the information in our database or contact you to request further information in order to have the data up to date (for example, if the address on your National ID number does not match the one provided in the form, we will contact you to provide evidence of your current address).
  • Ongoing monitoring of the relationship maintained with customers, in compliance with anti-money laundering regulations, which includes:
    • monitoring of transactions carried out with the aim of ensuring they are consistent with the information we hold about the customer in our systems and the risk assigned;
    • verification of the source of the funds; and;

For Openbank, to know and understand the needs for financial and banking products and services, as well as the creditworthiness and consumption habits of our customers. Therefore, we will carry out pseudonymisation and/or anonymisation procedures on your personal data that we will use to design and train algorithms, allowing us to create different behaviour and risk models, which we will subsequently use to carry out profiling activities on active customers. In particular, to design and train our behaviour and risk models, we use pseudonymised and/or anonymised personal and financial information from our own sources and external sources, such as:

  • Information we hold about you derived from the documentation you have provided and from your contractual relationship with us (such as your transactions).
  • Information appearing in Openbank’s databases related to your behaviour during operations undertaken with us.
  • Information held in credit default files to which we have access, such as the ASNEF Database and the BADEXCUG Database.
  • Statistical information on income data based on the postcode corresponding to where you reside, obtained from the INE, specifically using statistical data on household income. Information last updated: 2020.
  • Third-party cookies for the development and improvement of products, which use information about your device and browsing behaviour, provided you have given your consent for their use on our website.

Additionally, in some of the models used, the following information is utilised:

  • Statistical and aggregated data on consumer profiles obtained from surveys conducted by AIMC Marcas, Estudio General de Medios, or Research Now.

While your personal data will be used to design and train our behavioural and risk models, this processing—linked exclusively to such design and training—will not have any individualised legal consequences on you and, when training the model, at no time will we use your identifying personal data.

Subsequently, and in other processing of your personal data described in previous sections of this Policy, we may use these behavioural and risk models to compare our customer database against them, to profile our customers for marketing purposes (sending advertising); to analyse and assess their level of risk and creditworthiness and their propensity to take out any of our products as well as for their authorisation; to detect and prevent potential fraud attempts; and for anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing compliance. Likewise, depending on the behaviour and risk model we use, we may use internal and/or external sources depending on: (i) the credit product you apply to take out; and (ii) if you are already an existing Openbank customer. The reason for which the profiling level is different depending on whether or not you are an existing Openbank customer is because, if you are a customer, we already have information on you sourced from the contractual relationship that allows us to predict your risk of default without consulting external sources.

We would also like to inform you that at Openbank we have a control model that ensures the quality of the information of the algorithms used for the design of our behaviour and risk models.

The lawful basis for this processing is:

  • Our legitimate interest in designing, creating, and offering innovative and efficient financial products and services to our customers based on the various behavioural and risk models generated by our algorithms, as well as to analyse and assess our customers’ level of risk and creditworthiness; to detect and prevent potential fraud attempts; and for anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing compliance.

The social media platforms themselves provide, according to their privacy policies, information on how they process data using these tools for which we act as joint data controllers.

By using these tools, we conduct segmentation based on users’ interests and, therefore, if you are a social media user and are classified under our selected audience, you could receive advertising from Openbank.

When the contract between the merchant and us ends or when the individual ceases to act as a representative of the company.

In addition to the information provided in the table above relating to all data processing that we carry out, in Sections 4.1 to 4.5 below, a more detailed explanation is provided below of some of the processing activities that we consider particularly important, including, where applicable, information on the logic applied to automated data processing and the potential consequences of such processing.

4. 1. Validation of the Customer’s identity when requesting a transaction (automated decision)

When you request a financed payment from Openbank, we must verify and validate your identity, for which purposes we will adopt the measures we consider necessary. In particular, we will ask you for a copy of your national ID document and verify its validity through an automated mechanism.

Accordingly, we will store a copy of the document (including your image) and, if necessary, view it using any means, formats and media, for the sole purpose of verifying your identity whenever necessary in order to comply with the contract signed with you in your capacity as Customer (as is the case whenever a claim is filed) and to meet the requirements of the competent authorities and/or comply with our legal obligations.

We will carry out the aforementioned verification by means of an automated decision, the logic of which consists of capturing and processing the document image in order to perform a recognition analysis upon it and subsequently validate it.

You have the right to request an explanation of the decision made, to exercise your right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, requesting the involvement of one of our analysts, to express your point of view on the decision made based on profiling, and to object to it.

The legal basis of this processing is our legal obligation to ensure the accuracy of information as stipulated in Article 5 of the GDPR, in accordance with Article 6.1 (c) of the GDPR.

The categories of personal data we use in the framework of this processing are listed in Section 4.

4. 2. Fraud detection and prevention (automated decision)

We have the obligation and goal to prevent fraud and protect you and all our other Customers against potential fraudulent behaviour, such as identity theft or password theft.

If you are not yet a Zinia/Openbank customer, before you enter into a contractual relationship with us, we will perform different analyses to prevent fraudulent transactions, such as verifying your identity and detecting possible inconsistencies in the information provided. If we detect any irregularity when opening the account, we shall proceed to block the operation until the situation is clarified.

Our analyses involve using information that you provide to us during the registration process or that is transferred to us by the merchant through your request, such as: your name and surname, email address, telephone number and other variables associated with the request that you are making, as well as metadata associated with your request related to the devices from which you request the account opening, or the browser you use.

Likewise, we will share some of your personal data with third-party service providers that help us detect and prevent possible fraud attempts, at all times complying with and respecting the procedures, rights and guarantees that the laws in force establish and grant you. The information we share with these third parties includes some of the information you provide when you register as a Customer, such as your email address, as well as information related to your browsing, such as the IP address of your device. You can find details about the third parties we use to help us detect and prevent fraudulent transactions in Section 6.

Accordingly, when you request the Service, we will apply automated decisions that will significantly affect you, applying the following logic. We will process the information you provide us with during your request in order to make the decision on whether or not to provide you with our Services, or to determine if your use of our Services poses a fraud risk. We will analyse your user behaviour profile using specialised fraud prevention tools and compare this data to our internally established risk criteria.

The consequence that these automated decisions will have for you is that, based on the analysis carried out, we will decide if the identification data provided is robust and, therefore, we can continue with your application to subsequently perform an analysis of your creditworthiness. To do this, we will use the data you provide us with, as well as data from external sources (the fraud prevention tools and service providers we consult and collaborate with) and own internal Openbank information, including information we hold about you, such as data about your previous use of our Services and data related to the device you use to request the Service.

We will decide whether or not you pose a fraud risk when our processing shows that your behaviour indicates possible fraudulent conduct, that it is inconsistent with your previous use of our Services, or that you have attempted to hide your true identity. If you are not approved under the automated decisions described in this section, you will not be given access to the Service.

We have several control mechanisms in place to ensure that our automated decisions are correct. These mechanisms include ongoing testing and review of our decision models and exhaustive documentation of rejected applications and the rationale behind such decisions. If you have any concerns about the outcome, you can contact us and one of our analysts will personally determine if the procedure was properly performed. You may also object in accordance with the following instructions.

Under the data protection law, you have the right to object to any automated decision with legal consequences or decisions that could otherwise significantly affect you. In this case, you can do this by emailing privacidad.es@zinia.com. Upon receiving your request, we will proceed to review the decision, taking into account any additional information and circumstances you may provide us with.

The legal bases of this processing is: (i) our legitimate interest in preventing fraud (Recital 47 of the GDPR and Legal Report 195/2017 of the Spanish Data Protection Agency) and preventing harm to our customers; and (ii) compliance with other legal obligations: in particular, we will carry out this processing in accordance with Decision (EU) 2016/456 of the European Central Bank, of 4 March 2016, concerning the terms and conditions for European Anti-Fraud Office investigations of the European Central Bank, in relation to the prevention of fraud, corruption and any other illegal activities affecting the financial interests of the Union (ECB/2016/3) (recast) (OJEU of 30 March).

The sources from which we obtain the data, as well as the categories of personal data we collect from such sources, are listed in Section 4. Please note that if you already have a contractual relationship with Openbank before entering into the buy now, pay later transaction, we will also process – for the purposes described in this section – the personal data relating to you that we have obtained in the context of said relationship, given that Zinia and Openbank are, in fact, the same data controller.

See Section 6 for more information about the entities with which we share information in connection with profiling during automated decisions.

4. 3. Transferring data between the merchant where the Customer makes the purchase and Openbank, and approval of the transaction by analysing their creditworthiness (automated decision).

When you request the Service, the business where you make a purchase will transfer to us certain personal data relating to you so that we can provide you with the Service.

We need to process the personal data: (i) received from the business; (ii) provided directly by you; and (iii) collected by Openbank from external sources (such as other third parties and public sources), in order to analyse and manage the approval of the provision of the Service and, if the Service is ultimately provided, to comply with the obligations derived from it and maintain the contractual relationship with you.

Accordingly, we will assess your creditworthiness to predict if you will be able to afford to pay for the products and prevent a potential default on the debt, thereby avoiding situations that could be detrimental to both you and Openbank.

The logic that governs the analysis we carry out to approve the provision of the Service is based on the analysis of both the information you have provided us with and your purchase and payment history, as well as that obtained from the external sources listed in Section 4 that provide us with information related to your identity and financial situation. The aforementioned data and analytical capabilities of our risk models allow us to automatically determine if you are able to pay for the buy now, pay later product, thus allowing us to approve or reject your request.

You have the right to request an explanation of the decision made, to exercise your right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, requesting the involvement of one of our analysts, to express your point of view on the decision made based on profiling, and to object to it.

The legal basis of this profiling is the correct performance of the contract, in particular, the application – at your request – of pre-contractual measures and the execution and fulfilment of our contractual obligations in the event of you ultimately signing up to our Services.

The sources from which we obtain the data, as well as the categories of personal data we collect from such sources, are listed in Section 4. Please note that if you already have another contractual relationship with Openbank before entering into the buy now, pay later transaction, we also process – for the purposes described in this section – the personal data relating to you that we have obtained in the context of the said relationship, given that Zinia and Openbank are, in fact, the same data controller.

4. 4. Marketing

As part of the aforementioned data processing, we will process your personal data for the purpose of sending marketing. The scope and purposes of such processing, as well as the lawful basis and the categories of personal data processed, are described in more detail below:

  • Sending marketing about our own products and services and those related to the purpose of the contract based on our legitimate interest and based on profiling with data from internal sources (direct marketing) (automated decision).

Once you sign up to our Services, your personal data will be used to send you marketing about Openbank products and services, including those you have already taken out (for example, communications about our loans, credits or cards). Such marketing may be sent by automated and non-automated means (by mail, telephone, SMS, instant messaging apps, email, web push, pop-up or any other electronic or telematic means available at any time) and will be relevant to you based on information obtained from our internal sources, from which we perform profiling according to your behavioural patterns.

The marketing referred to in this section includes advertisements that we display whenever you log in to Zinia, about functionalities, products and services that we think could be relevant to you based on the Services you have signed up to. If you wish, you may object to receiving this type of personalised advertising, following the instructions in Section 7. However, please note that, in any case, you will continue to receive generic advertisements that will not be based on your interests or preferences and, depending on your privacy preferences, you may also receive other types of advertising.

The goal we pursue with the creation of these profiles is to be able to carry out an analysis related to your economic and personal characteristics, based solely on the search for information from internal sources, in order to determine which related products and services best suit your situation based on two variables: your willingness to take out the product and the probability of the transaction being approved.

The profile will be created through an automated decision, to which the following logic will be applied. We will process the information you provide to determine your payment behaviour, the customer segment or segments you belong to -according to our internal classification criteria- and the periodic fulfilment of your contractual obligations. This activity may lead us to make a decision not to offer you certain products or services, depending on the risk that the bank estimates and the rating resulting from the analysis of the information obtained.

In addition, we will process your personal data to analyse your behaviour regarding the impact and success of our commercial campaigns.

This data processing will be carried out while your contractual relationship with Openbank is valid, unless you tell us otherwise through the channels provided for in Section 7 of this Privacy Policy.

Likewise, since this processing is carried out based on automated decision-making, you have the right to request an explanation regarding the decision made, to exercise your right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, requesting the involvement of one of our analysts, to express your point of view on the decision made based on profiling, and to object to it.

The legal basis of this data processing is our legitimate interest in promoting and offering our products and services by sending general or personalised correspondence. Openbank’s main interest in carrying out this data processing is to maintain our relationship with you by offering new products and improving the terms and conditions of the products and/or services you have signed up to, and offering you information about Openbank and its products that could be relevant to you. We consider that the aforementioned data processing activities do not constitute an impediment to the normal exercise of your rights and freedoms, as they are considered normal practice within the business sector, so we understand that the receipt of this type of correspondence will not be detrimental to your expectations. We also undertake to use the least harmful means to carry out such data processing activities.

The categories of personal data we use in the framework of this processing are listed in Section 4. Please note that if you already have another contractual relationship with Openbank before entering into the buy now, pay later transaction, we also process – for the purposes described in this section – the personal data relating to you that we have obtained in the context of the said relationship, given that Zinia and Openbank are, in fact, the same data controller.

  • Sending marketing about our own products and services based on information obtained from and profiling with internal and external sources (automated decision).

As long as you have given us your express prior consent, we may send you relevant marketing about Openbank products and services (for example, marketing about our loans, credit or cards), while our contractual relationship remains valid. Such marketing may be sent by automated and non-automated means (by post, telephone, SMS, instant messaging apps, email, web push, pop-up or any other electronic or telematic means available at any time) and will take into account the analysis of your Customer commercial profile.

The marketing referred to in this section includes advertisements that we display whenever you log in to Zinia, about functionalities, products and services that we think could be relevant to you based on the Services you have signed up to. If you wish, you may object to receiving this type of personalised advertising, following the instructions in Section 7. However, please note that, in any case, you shall continue to receive generic advertisements that will not be based on your interests or preferences and, depending on your privacy preferences, you may also receive other types of advertising.

The goal we pursue with the creation of these profiles is to be able to carry out an analysis related to your economic and personal characteristics, in order to determine which products marketed by this bank best suit your situation based on two variables: your willingness to take out the product and the probability of the transaction being approved.

This profile will be created following an analysis of your behavioural and risk patterns, from internal sources such as payment details, as well as the information obtained from external sources.

The profile will be created through an automated decision, in which the following logic will be applied. We will process the information you provide to determine your payment behaviour, the customer segment or segments to which you belong—according to our internal classification criteria—and the periodic fulfilment of your contractual obligations. This activity may lead us to make a decision not to offer you certain products or services, depending on the risk we estimate, and the rating determined following analysis of the information obtained.

It is important that you understand that this data processing activity is limited to the aforementioned purpose, which is to recommend Openbank products and services to you based on data obtained from internal and external sources.

Likewise, since this processing is carried out based on automated decision-making, you have the right to request an explanation regarding the decision made, to exercise your right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, requesting the involvement of one of our analysts, to express your point of view on the decision made based on profiling, and to object to it.

The legal basis of this data processing is obtaining your prior informed consent. You can withdraw the consent provided to Openbank at any time through the channels provided for in Section 7 of this Privacy Policy.

The sources from which we obtain the data, as well as the categories of personal data we collect from such sources, are listed in Section 4. Please note that if you already have another contractual relationship with Openbank before entering into the buy now, pay later transaction, we also process – for the purposes described in this section – the personal data relating to you that we have obtained in the context of the said relationship, given that Zinia and Openbank are, in fact, the same data controller.

  • Sending marketing about third-party products and services based on profiling with internal and external sources (automated decision).

Provided you have given us your prior express consent, Openbank may send you relevant marketing about third-party products and services (for example, marketing about promotions or discounts offered by such third parties). Such marketing may be sent by automated and non-automated means (by post, telephone, SMS, instant messaging apps, email, web push, pop-up or any other electronic or telematic means available at any time) and will take into account the analysis of your Customer commercial profile.

The marketing referred to in this section includes advertisements that we display whenever you log in to Zinia, about functionalities, products and services offered by third-party companies. If you wish, you may object to receiving this type of personalised advertising, following the instructions in Section 7. However, please note that, in any case, you shall continue to receive generic advertisements that will not be based on your interests or preferences and, depending on your privacy preferences, you may also receive other types of advertising.

With regard to third-party companies from which we will send you marketing about products and services, please note that such companies carry out their business activity in – but not limited to – the following sectors: financial, insurance, leisure and tourism, entertainment, telecommunications, information society, retail, luxury, health, food and beverage, automotive, hospitality, department stores, energy, real estate and security services, among others.

The goal we pursue with the creation of these profiles is to be able to carry out an analysis related to your economic and personal characteristics, in order to determine which products marketed by such third-party companies best suit your situation based on two variables: your willingness to take out the product and the probability of the transaction being approved.

This profile will be created following the analysis of your behavioural and risk patterns. So, for example, if the information we have about you shows that you are interested in technology products, we shall send you marketing about products offered by companies in this sector. We also use other internal sources, such as payment details, as well as information obtained from external sources.

The profile will be created through an automated decision, in which the following logic will be applied. We will process the information you provide to determine your payment behaviour, the customer segment or segments to which you belong—according to our internal classification criteria—and the periodic fulfilment of your contractual obligations. This activity may lead us to make a decision not to offer you certain products or services, depending on the risk we estimate, and the rating determined following analysis of the information obtained.

It is important that you understand that this data processing activity is limited to the aforementioned purpose, which is to recommend third-party products and services to you.

Likewise, as this processing is carried out based on automated decision-making, you have the right to request an explanation regarding the decision made, to exercise your right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, requesting the involvement of one of our analysts, to express your point of view on the decision made based on profiling, and to object to it.

The legal basis of this data processing is obtaining your prior informed consent. You can withdraw the consent provided to Openbank at any time through the channels provided for in Section 7 of this Privacy Policy.

The sources from which we obtain the data, as well as the categories of personal data we collect from such sources, are listed in Section 4. Please note that if you already have another contractual relationship with Openbank before entering into the buy now, pay later transaction, we will also process – for the purposes described in this section – the personal data relating to you that we have obtained in the context of the said relationship, given that Zinia and Openbank are, in fact, the same data controller.

  • Transferring data to other companies of the Santander Group for sending marketing and promotional offers about their products and services.

Provided that you have given us your prior express consent, Openbank may transfer your personal data to other companies of the Santander Group in order to allow them to offer you their products and services that could be relevant to you.

The companies to which we may transfer your personal data are those of the Santander Group (in accordance with Article 42 of the Commercial Code).

Such marketing may be sent by automated and non-automated means (by post, telephone, SMS, instant messaging apps, email, web push, pop-up or any other electronic or telematic means available at any time) and will take into account the analysis of your Customer commercial profile, based on the information provided to such third parties.

This profile will be created following the analysis of your behavioural and risk patterns, other internal sources such as payment details, as well as information obtained from external sources.

It is important that you understand that this data processing is limited to the aforementioned purpose, which is to transfer your personal data to other companies of the Santander Group so that they can offer you other products and services of the Santander Group.

The legal basis of this data processing is obtaining your prior informed consent. You can withdraw the consent provided to Openbank at any time through the channels provided for in Section 7 of this Privacy Policy.

The categories of personal data we use in the framework of this processing are listed in Section 4. Please note that if you already have another contractual relationship with Openbank before entering into the buy now, pay later transaction, we will also process – for the purposes described in this section – the personal data relating to you that we have obtained in the context of the said relationship, given that Zinia and Openbank are, in fact, the same data controller.

4. 5. Risk and behavioural model design and training

It is important to us that we have a solid understanding of the needs for products and services, as well as the creditworthiness and consumption habits of our active Customers. Therefore, we will carry out pseudonymisation and/or anonymisation procedures on your personal data that we will use to design and train algorithms, allowing us to create different behavioural and risk models, which we will then use to carry out profiling activities on active Customers. Specifically, in order to design and train our behavioural and risk models, we use pseudonymised and/or anonymised personal and financial information from both our own sources as well as external sources.

While your personal data will be used to design and train our behavioural and risk models, this processing linked exclusively to such design and training will not have any individualised legal consequences on you and, upon training the model, at no time will we use your identifying personal data.

Subsequently, and in other cases of personal data processing as explained in previous sections of this Policy, we will be able to use these behavioural and risk models to compare with our Customer database, to profile our Customers, both for marketing purposes (sending advertising) and to analyse and assess your level of risk and creditworthiness and your propensity to take out any of our products.

We also have a control model at Openbank that ensures the quality of the information of the algorithms used for designing our behavioural and risk models.

The legal basis of this processing is our legitimate interest in designing, creating and offering innovative and efficient financial products and services to our Customers based on the different behavioural and risk models created by our algorithms.

The sources from which we obtain the data, as well as the categories of personal data we collect from such sources, are listed in Section 4. Please note that if you already have another contractual relationship with Openbank before entering into the buy now, pay later transaction, we will also process – for the purposes described in this section – the personal data relating to you that we have obtained in the context of the said relationship, given that Zinia and Openbank are, in fact, the same data controller.

5. How long do we keep your personal data for?

Openbank will keep your data for as long as required to undertake the purpose for which they were collected and, subsequently, they will be blocked for the corresponding retention period provided for by law or as per the statute of limitations. After these periods, where applicable, Openbank will destroy or completely anonymise the data.

The blocking of your data implies Openbank refraining from carrying out any processing of your data. However, your data will be retained for the purpose of making them available to the competent public administrations, judges, courts and tribunals or the Public Prosecutor's Office in relation to any liability that may arise from the contractual relationship held with you or relating to the processing of such data.

Furthermore, if you are a customer, we will process your data until your contractual relationship with Openbank terminates. After said termination, as a general rule, we will keep your personal data blocked. Please note that some actions provided for by consumer law, such as injunctions or actions for declaration of nullity, are not subject to any statute of limitations.
