CÍTRICOS TANTA, S.L.

Description

The Spanish DPA has imposed a fine of EUR 5,000 on CÍTRICOS TANTA, S.L.. The controller had entered personal data of an employee in the Social Security General Employee Register without the employee ever having actually worked. For this reason, the controller would have been obliged to cancel the entry of the data subject in the register within 72 hours, which the controller failed to do. In the absence of the data subject's work performance, the controller no longer had a legal basis to upload the data to the register. Therefore, the DPA found that the failure to delete the data constituted an unlawful processing of the data subject's personal data.
