FINALDescription
The Spanish DPA has imposed a fine of EUR 2,000 on Rapido Finance, S.L.. The data subject had received a message from a company on behalf of Rapid Finance requesting payment of outstanding debts. However, the data subject had already paid the debts, which was also confirmed in a court ruling. For this reason, the DPA determined that the disclosure of the data subject's personal data for the purpose of contacting them regarding the settlement of the debt was unlawful.
