The Italian DPA (Garante) has imposed a fine of EUR 12,000 on the Italian National Institute for Social Security (Istituto Nazionale della Previdenza Sociale). That fine was based on the fact that the controller failed to respond properly to two requests for information that the data subject had submitted to the controller. The requests were related to the disclosure of personal data of the data subject to third parties. Initially, the data subject had received no response to either request. In the course of the investigation, the controller then provided him with information and explained that the previous requests had not been answered due to a technical error in its e-mail system
