The DPA of Hamburg has imposed a fine of EUR 12,5000 on an energy supplier. The company had outsourced and sold its heating energy division. Customers affected by the transfer were informed about the transfer of their electricity supply contracts and given the right to object. In the event of a declared objection, no personal data of the customers should be transferred to the new company. However, despite customers having duly declared their objection, their data was transferred to the new company.
