FINALDescription
The Romanian DPA imposed a fine of EUR 24,000 on Hora Credit IFN SA. The controller had accidentally sent documents containing the personal data of another person to a customer by e-mail. Although the customer reported the error to the controller, messages continued to be sent to the wrong e-mail address. The controller also failed to respond to the data subject's request for access to their data in a timely manner. During its investigation, the DPA found that the controller failed to implement sufficient technical and organizational measures to protect personal data. The controller also failed to report the incident to the DPA in a timely manner.
