Cyprus: Commissioner fines doctor €14,000 for GDPR violations
The Office of the Commissioner for Personal Data Protection ('the Commissioner') issued, on 25 September 2019, a decision ('the Decision') fining a doctor €14,000 for violations of Articles 5(1) and 6(1)(a) of the General Data Protection Regulation (Regulation (EU) 2016/679) ('GDPR'). In particular, the Decision outlines that the doctor had posted a patient’s personal data on social media without the patient having consented to the use of her personal data, which lead to the disclosure of her identity.
