PayPal send money APIs such as Payouts can be used to send money to PayPal accounts or email addresses that do not yet have a PayPal account. If there is no PayPal account, the recipient will receive a message and have 30 days to create one to claim the payment, otherwise it will be automatically refunded.
Once the recipient receives the money into their PayPal account, they can withdraw it to any compatible place for their account's country -- including bank accounts, and cards that support withdrawals.
To use PayPal Payouts, the account sending the payout must be approved by PayPal to have the service enabled.

I have a PayPal account that I have linked to my bank account. My PayPal balance is always $0. When I make a purchase with PayPal, PayPal will automatically withdraw the funds from my bank account to make the purchase.
PayPal does not ask my permission for each purchase. I probably gave them permission to do this when I linked my bank account. Or perhaps the PayPal purchase process includes this permission. I don't read the text closely. Or I should add, that I probably read it at one point, but since I do it on a regular basis, I don't read it now, and I don't recall what is on the checkout page.
See this help article from Paypal about payment methods for purchases.
When you don’t have a PayPal balance or don’t have enough in your PayPal balance, we’ll use your bank account as the default payment method unless you select a different way to pay.
So yes, Paypal will automatically deduct from your bank account when you make a purchase, unless you link another payment method and make that your default.
This is the statement on the paypal agreement: "I hereby authorize PayPal to issue pre-authorized debits drawn on the bank account (the “Account”) added to my PayPal Account for my personal or business use." So yes, we agree to have money withdrawn automatically from our account.
