Summary
The Spanish DPA has imposed a fine of EUR 200,000 against GSMA LTD.. An individual had filed a complaint with the DPA because they had to transfer special categories of personal data (e.g., ID card data) to the controller in order to register for an event. In the course of its investigation, the DPA found that the controller had failed to conduct a data protection impact assessment for these processing operations.
