Article 22 GDPR:

The data subject shall have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning him or her or similarly significantly affects him or her. [...]

There is a carve-out if it "is necessary for entering into, or performance of, a contract between the data subject and a data controller", which nobody seems sure what it means, and it has not been tested in court.
