FINALOpis
The Spanish DPA (AEPD) imposed a fine of EUR 40,000 on Miraclia Telecomunicaciones S.L. for violating Articles 6, 13 and 14 of the GDPR. Miraclia Telecomunicaciones S.L. is the operator of a phone prank app where you can select a 'prank' and enter the phone number of the recipient. The recipient is then called on a suppressed number and the prank is executed. The AEPD notes that the operator violated the obligation to provide information regarding the collection of personal data of the data subject. Furthermore, it notes that Miraclia, through this application, does not at any time inform the data subject (the person who answers the prank call and is recorded) of his or her right to consent in accordance with the provisions of the GDPR.
