FINALDescription
In February, the Romanian DPA (ANSPDCP) closed an investigation against S.C. Medicover S.R.L. and found a violation of Art. 32 (1) b), (2), (4) GDPR. The DPA imposed a fine of EUR 2,000 on the controller. The investigation was initiated following successive notifications by the controller regarding personal data breaches related to unauthorized disclosure and unauthorized access to personal data such as name, correspondence address, email and health data of the data subjects. On several occasions, documents containing personal data had been sent to the wrong recipients. The DPA found that the incidents occurred due to the controller's failure to implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect the processing of personal data.
