| Summary | The Spanish DPA (AEPD) has fined Promotech Digital S.L. EUR 2,400 for repeatedly sending the data subject advertising SMS, even though he never subscribed or agreed to receive SMS. Furthermore, the SMS did not offer a direct option to unsubscribe from the advertising. Instead, reference was made to the possibility of cancellation by e-mail. Even though the data subject had objected to receiving further SMS, he continued to receive SMS from the controller. The original fine of EUR 3,000 was reduced by 20% to EUR 2,400 due to immediate payment and acknowledgement of guilt. |
