FINALDescription
The Austrian DPA has imposed a fine of EUR 100,000 on a Covid 19 test lab. The controller failed to implement sufficient technical and organisational measures, resulting in a data breach. Furthermore, the controller refused to inform the data subjects of the breach. The DPA also found that the controller processed certain data without a sufficient legal basis, used a processor without the necessary contract, failed to designate a suitable DPO, and failed to report the designation to the DPA.
