The Spanish DPA has imposed a fine on BANCO BILBAO VIZCAYA ARGENTARIA, S.A. A customer of the bank had lodged a complaint with the DPA because the controller had signed a data protection form for them and their spouse without their consent. The original fine of EUR 200,000 was reduced to EUR 120,000 due to voluntary payment and admission of responsibility.
