Full text

The DPA of Hessen imposed a fine of EUR 1,800 on a Covid-19 test center. An employee had taken an adhesive label from the trash, written the test center's e-mail address on it and attached it to the center's window. However, due to a lack of care, the employee did not notice that the label still contained personal data of an individual. The data was therefore visible to third parties for about 24 hours until the label was removed.
