Sportitalia

Opis

The Italian DPA (Garante) imposed a fine of EUR 20,000 on Sportitalia. The controller processed biometric data (fingerprints) of employees for the purpose of registering their attendance. Garante found that such extensive processing was not proportionate and therefore constituted an unjustified infringement of the rights of the data subjects. Furthermore, Garante determined that the processing of biometric data had taken place without sufficiently informing the data subjects about the processing.
