Summary

The Italian DPA has imposed a fine of EUR 75,000 on Università Telematica E-Campus. The controller had sent advertising messages and made advertising calls without the consent of the data subjects, although some data subjects had also objected to such messages. In addition, the controller had never responded to complaints regarding this matter. In calculating the fine, the fact that the controller had not cooperated sufficiently with the DPA was taken into account as an aggravating factor.
