The DPA from Luxembourg (CNPD) has imposed a fine of EUR 12,500 on a company. The company had installed a video surveillance system for the purpose of protecting company property, securing access to private and high-risk locations, and ensuring the safety of users and preventing accidents. However, the cameras also excessively captured parts of the public space and workplaces of employees.
