FINALLeírás
Original summary: A school in Gdansk used biometric fingerprint scanners to authenticate students for the payment process in the school canteen. Although the parents had given their written consent to such data processing, the data protection authority considered the processing of the student data to be unlawful, as the consent to data processing was not given voluntarily. Update: Update: On August 7, 2020, the Provincial Administrative Court in Warsaw overturned the decision of the Polish DPA imposing a fine of EUR 4,600.
