Company

Description

The DPA of Luxembourg (CNPD) has imposed a fine of EUR 1,400 on a company. The controller had installed location sensors on a number of cars in its fleet. The purpose of this was to protect the company's assets, optimal fleet management and optimize the workflow, among other things. Some of the location data collected by the controller was stored for a year. The DPA states that this was clearly excessive and not necessary for the purposes of the processing. The DPA considered this to be a violation of the principle of storage limitation. In addition, the DPA found that the controller had not sufficiently informed the data subjects about the processing of the location data and had thus violated its information obligations pursuant to Art. 13 GDPR.
