The Italian DPA has fined Verizon Connect Italy S.p.A. EUR 30,000. An individual who worked for a Verizon customer had filed a complaint with the DPA. Verizon had installed GPS systems in delivery vehicles for the customer and was acting as a processor for them. During its investigation, the DPA found that the relationship between Verizon and the customer was not sufficiently regulated, contrary to the requirements of Art. 28 GDPR. The DPA therefore found that the data processed as part of the commissioned processing was consequently processed without a valid legal basis over a long period of time.
