Description

The Spanish DPA has imposed a fine on BANCO BILBAO VIZCAYA ARGENTARIA, S.A.. A data subject had filed a complaint with the DPA because the controller had proposed to a credit reference agency to include their personal data in a solvency file without being properly informed in advance. It turned out that the controller had provided an incorrect address and the data subject had therefore not received any notification. The original fine of EUR 200,000 was reduced to EUR 120,000 due to the voluntary payment and the acknowledgement of responsibility.
