FINALDescrizione
The Spanish DPA (AEPD) has imposed a fine on UNIVERSIDAD A DISTANCIA DE MADRID, S.A.. A data subject had filed a complaint against the distance learning university. He stated that he had requested the controller to delete all his data and prohibit its processing for any purpose. He received a confirmation, that his data had been completely deleted. Nevertheless, the data subject later received advertising from the controller by e-mail. The AEPD then imposed a fine of EUR 5,000, which was reduced to EUR 3,000 due to acknowledgement of guilt and immediate payment.
