The DPA of Baden-Württemberg has imposed a fine of EUR 5,000 on a surveyor. The surveyor had used his authority to inspect the electronic land register to identify several hundred property owners in two cases without their knowledge and had passed on the relevant information to a property developer. The latter in turn contacted the identified owners. The DPA determined that both the surveyor and the developer had unlawfully processed the data of the property owners.
