Well, for the full enforcement process: if your answer is not satisfactory, I will forward my letter (together with the notice of non-answer, or the notice of unsatisfactory answer) to my national data protection agency. Believe it or not, it's just an email. From there on, you have bureaucrats (who are paid for this & motivated to write fines) that will take up the legal process. The whole setup is similar to the consumer protection agency - and I hardly ever have to do anything after notifying that agency, I just receive a later with the resolution after a few months.
- ainiriand 8y agoFines are just the last resort. There are many mechanisms that the DPA office can take. Take a look at the user's rights here: https://ec.europa.eu/info/law/law-topic/data-protection/reform/rights-citizens/my-rights/what-are-my-rights_en https://ec.europa.eu/info/law/law-topic/data-protection/refo... As you can see, the letter clearly extralimitates the user's rights. So you can forward as many letters as you want but that's not gonna work.
- virgilp 8y agoDepends on what you mean but "not gonna work". I presume that all my questions will have satisfactory answers, either directly by the company or via the DPA. Either way, it's just an email for me. I'm pretty sure it's more than "just an email" for someone who does business in the EU but chooses to ignore my original request.
