Belgian Data Protection Authority Imposes Fine on Non-Profit Organization for Unlawful Direct Marketing Practices
On May 29, 2020, the Litigation Chamber of the Belgian Data Protection Authority imposed a fine of €1,000 on a non-profit organization.
The decision followed a complaint filed by an individual who continued to receive promotional materials from the organization after he had objected to the processing of his contact details for direct marketing purposes and had requested that the organization erase his data from its database.
