Summary

The Swedish DPA has imposed a fine of EUR 25,000 on CDON AB. The Austrian organization None of your Business (NOYB) had filed a complaint against the company in light of the Schrems II judgment, stating that the company was unlawfully transferring personal data to the US. The company had used Google Analytics for visitor statistics and based the data processing by the statistics tool on the EU standard contractual clauses in the absence of an EU Commission adequacy decision for the USA. In the course of its investigation, the DPA determined that the use of the standard contractual clauses was not sufficient to guarantee a level of protection equivalent to that of the EU.
