EUR 272.5m in fines imposed by European regulators under GDPR
EUR 272.5 million of fines have been imposed for a wide range of infringements of Europe’s tough data protection laws according to international law firm DLA Piper.
EUR 158.5 million of fines imposed since 28 January 2020, a 39% increase on the previous 20 month period since the application of GDPR. Italy has imposed the highest aggregate fines with France imposing the highest individual fine to date. However, several multi-million euro fines have been successfully appealed or significantly reduced.
