Insurance company

Kuvaus

The DPA has ex officio, without prior notice, conducted a direct supervision over an insurance company based in Zagreb. Upon inspection of its business facility for carrying out technical inspections and vehicle registration and contracting insurance services, the DPA established that both the business facility and its external surface are under video surveillance. However, the DPA established that the insurance company has failed to provide notice of such surveillance, which is contrary to Art 27 (1) of the Law on the Implementation of GDPR. Namely, data controllers and processors are obliged to indicate that the object and its outer surface are under video surveillance, and such notice must be visible at the latest when entering the perimeter of the recording and must contain all the prescribed information. Due to the breach, the DPA imposed an administrative fine on the insurance company.
