Summary

The Spanish DPA (AEPD) has imposed a fine of EUR 600 on a private individual. The controller had installed video surveillance cameras which, among other things, also covered the public space. The DPA considered this to be a violation of the principle of data minimization. In addition, the controller had not properly informed data subjects about the video surveillance and thus violated Art. 13 GDPR. The fine is made up of EUR 300 for a violation of Art. 5 (1) c) GDPR and EUR 300 for a violation of Art. 13 GDPR.
