MAF.COM ESQUI CLUB: Insufficient legal basis for data processing
€10,000 fine - Spanish Data Protection Authority (aepd)
Content
The Spanish DPA (AEPD) has imposed a fine of EUR 10,000 on MAF.COM ESQUI CLUB. The mother of an underage girl who had attended ski lessons with the controller filed a complaint with the DPA against the latter. The controller had published videos of the mother's daughter on its website and social media channels without her consent. The images were only disseminated with the consent of the father, who enrolled the girl in the ski course. The girl's parents were divorced at the time of the incident. The DPA found that the controller had failed to obtain consent from both parents and thus processed the images without a valid legal basis.
