FINALDescription
The Spanish DPA has imposed a fine on CITIZENGO FOUNDATION. A person had filed a complaint with the DPA because the controller had sent them an email with election advertising without the individual's consent. The original fine of EUR 5,000 was reduced to EUR 3,000 due to voluntary payment and acknowledgement of responsibility.
