Summary of the Decision

Origin of the case
The complainant contended that her personal data were inserted in the insolvency register of a third party without having been provided the required information, in accordance with Article 13 GDPR, at the time her data were obtained.

The same information is also available on the controller’s website.

Decision
The LSA found that the complainant was adequately informed pursuant to Article 13 GDPR.

Summary Final Decision Art 60
Complaint

No violation

Background information
Date of final decision: 10 May 2019

LSA: LU
CSAs: CZ, DK, ES, FR

Legal Reference: Lawfulness of the processing (Article 6), principles relating to the processing of personal data (Article 5), Security of processing (Article 32)

Decision: No violation

Key words: Lawfulness of the processing, Third party access to personal data, Rights of data subjects, Security of processing, e-commerce

Summary of the Decision
Origin of the case
The complainant states that they received a telegram sent by a third party in which their full name and address were included, as well as an order number. The third party claimed that a parcel purchased by him on the controller website had been sent to the complainant. The complainant states that their personal data may have been provided by the controller to the third party, thus violating the claimant’s rights under GDPR.

Findings
Following an inquiry by the LSA, the controller has demonstrated that it was the courier who provided the complainant’s details to the third party. The controller did not find any account on its website containing the personal details of the complainant, and there was no further evidence that the controller provided the personal data of the complainant either to the third party or to the courier.
Therefore, it seems that the personal data relating to the complainant must have already been stored by the courier and got connected (by the courier) to the order made by the third party.

Decision
The LSA did not identify any infringement of the obligations set out in Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR) by the controller. The data controller did not provide the third party with the complainant’s personal details and therefore the cross-border complaint should be closed, since no further action is required.

Complaint

No violation

Background information
Date of final decision: 22 March 2019
LSA: FR
CSAs: AT, BE, DE-Berlin, DE-Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, DE-Bavaria (private sector), DE-Lower Saxony
Legal Reference: Right to object (Article 21), Principles relating to processing of personal data (Article 5), Lawfulness of the processing (Article 6), Conditions for consent (Article 7)

Decision: No violation
Key words: Rights of data subjects, Right to object, Lawfulness of processing, e-Commerce, Marketing

Summary of the Decision

Origin of the case
The data subject filed a complaint after facing difficulties in pursuing his right to object and in relation to the information required on the product order form.

Findings
The LSA found that the delay in complying with the right to object was due to the 72 hours required to process the relevant request, of which the data subject was informed. Besides, the request was submitted on a Saturday and Monday was a holiday. The data controller also took measures to clarify the e-mail address to which such requests can be submitted, and it also set up a dedicated email address to handle such requests more efficiently. In addition, the data controller no longer requires the date of birth to be provided for an order to be placed. Moreover, the consent to receive promotional offers from the controller and third parties must be explicitly given by checking the respective boxes when ordering a product.

Decision
The LSA did not identify any infringement of the obligations set out in Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR) by the controller. The data controller did not delay to comply with the request beyond what was reasonable and adjusted the information required to avoid collecting more data than necessary.

The controller must comply with such a request immediately. However, the controller did not comply with the request until much later.
