The Italian DPA (Garante) imposed a fine of EUR 5,000 on Comune di Borgia. The municipality processed biometric data of employees for the purpose of registering their attendance. Garante found that such processing was not proportionate and therefore constituted an unjustified infringement of the rights of the data subjects. Subsequently, Garante determined that the processing of biometric data had taken place without a legal basis. Also the Garante found that the municipality failed to provide the DPA the contact data of their data protections officer.
