Summary

The Spanish DPA (AEPD) has imposed a fine of Euro 6,000 on a private individual. On July 8, 2020, the DPA became aware of the dissemination on social networks of a video showing images of aggression by a man against a woman, as well as a young male minor intervening in the scene and trying to prevent the aggression that was taking place. However, the faces of the woman and the minor had not been pixelated.
The original fine of EUR 10,000 was reduced to EUR 6,000 due to timely payment and admission of guilt.
