The Italian DPA sanctions a food delivery company for monitoring drivers
On July 5, 2021, the Italian supervisory authority (Garante) published an injunction against a company operating a food delivery app over the processing of riders’ personal data with respect to the use of algorithms for the management of the orders.
The decision imposed on the company the obligation to take several corrective measures aimed at protecting the riders’ personal data, including preventing inappropriate and/or discriminatory applications of the automated orders and an administrative fine of € 2.6 million.
