Résumé des faits
The Italian DPA has imposed a fine of EUR 300,000 on Medtronic Italia. The controller had sent emails in an open distribution list to hundreds of individuals using the controller's app to measure their blood glucose levels, making the email addresses of all recipients visible to the other recipients. This made it possible to draw conclusions about whether the data subjects had diabetes. The controller also failed to adequately inform data subjects about the processing of their personal data.
