- VMG 6y agoThe GDPR does not fix this at all.
- coddle-hark 6y agoYes it does. For instance, most places don’t send payslips over email for GDPR compliance reasons.
- rlpb 6y agoIt does. See for example the Ticketmaster case. They were fined £1.25 million under the GDPR: https://ico.org.uk/action-weve-taken/enforcement/ticketmaster-uk-limited/ https://ico.org.uk/action-weve-taken/enforcement/ticketmaste... A key justification for the fine (see the report eg. sections 6.3 through 6.7) is that "there were multiple failures by Ticketmaster to put in place appropriate technical or organisational measures to protect the personal data being processed on Ticketmaster's systems, as required by the GDPR." Process data without taking appropriate steps to protect that data and you face being fined under the GDPR.
