Kuvaus

The Belgian DPA imposed a fine of EUR 20,000 on a medical laboratory. During its investigation, the DPA found that the laboratory had failed to conduct a data protection impact assessment and thus violated Art. 35 GDPR. In addition, the laboratory had violated, Art. 5 (1) f) GDPR and Art. 32 GDPR, as it was possible for physicians to view patients' personal data on the website without encryption. Finally, the DPA found that the laboratory had not published a privacy statement on its website, in violation of Art. 12 GDPR, Art. 13 GDPR and Art. 14 GDPR.
