FINALDescription
The Spanish DPA has imposed a fine on the trade union Union Sindical Obrera. An individual had filed a complaint with the DPA for repeatedly receiving emails from the controller despite having requested that their data be deleted. The original fine of EUR 3,000 was reduced to EUR 1,800 due to voluntary payment and admission of guilt.
