Full text
The Italian DPA (Garante) imposed a fine of EUR 8,000 on Comune di Vicchio. 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.
