The Norwegian DPA (Datatilsynet) fined a company NOK 250,000 (EUR 24,400). The controller ordered an employee to set up an automatic forwarding of his/her employee email account to a shared company account. The reason given for this was to improve the company's operations. The DPA found that the controller had no legal basis to order such automatic forwarding. It therefore acted unlawfully.
