Insufficient legal basis for data processing

Content

The DPA of Bremen has imposed a fine on a medical care center for having scanned a customer's ID card against their will and stored the copy. Once the customer complained, they were threatened with termination of the customer relationship. In assessing the fine, the DPA took into account the fact that the ID card had been scanned against the explicit objection of the data subject.
