Case details

Authority: Spanish Data Protection Authority (aepd)
Date: 2025-04-15
Controller / Processor: Unknown
Sector: Not assigned
Quoted Articles: Art. 5 (1) c) GDPR
Type of violation: Non-compliance with general data processing principles

Summary

The Spanish DPA imposed a fine on an unknown data controller. The controller stored full copies of personal IDs for verification purposes. In this case, storing all the information found on an ID was unnecessary and infringed upon the principle of data minimization. The original fine of EUR 1,000 was reduced to EUR 600 due to immediate payment and admission of responsibility by the controller.
