Description

The Polish DPA has imposed a fine of EUR 4,323,250 on ING Bank Śląski. The controller scanned the identity documents of every customer and potential customer without a sufficient legal basis. The controller started to implement this procedure after an anti-money laundering law was introduced, but failed to assess the necessity of the data processing in each case.
