FINALDescription
The Hellenic DPA imposed a fine of EUR 400,000 on the Ministry of Interior for leaking email addresses from the voter registry of Greek expatriates. These personal data, which were intended for electoral purposes, were subsequently misused by a Member of the European Parliament (MEP) to send unsolicited political communications.
