22 Dec 2025 Curenergía Comercializador de Último Recurso, S.A.U.AEPD: 500,000 EUR against energy supplier Curenergía after misdirected message in dual chat SpainData processors €500,000

An employee of the customer service provider was serving two customers in chat at the same time and assigned one customer's e-mail address to the other; as a result, the complainant received the name, debts and billing data of a stranger. The Spanish data protection authority (Agencia Española de Protección de Datos, AEPD) saw the cause in the process design, which allowed parallel chats, and imposed 500,000 EUR for lack of data protection by design; the request for reconsideration was rejected.

What organisations can take from it

Design service channels so that mix-ups between customers are technically harder – an individual error can be an organisational failure.

How the radar is compiled

Official sources only

Every case is based on a decision, press release or database of an authority or a court. Press and law-firm reports count at most as additional references.

Four-eyes check

Whoever enters a case may not approve it. A second, independent check compares company, date, amount and area of law with the source. Only then is the case published.

Comparable amounts

Amounts are converted at the ECB reference rate on the day of the decision. Each case also shows the original amount.

Corrections on record

A correction is a new version that is checked again. Every change is logged. You can report errors directly on each case.

Case texts are translated from the German original. Where a translation is not yet available, the German text is shown and marked “(German original)”. Names of authorities, laws and companies are given as in the source.

The radar reports on published decisions and is not legal advice. Decisions that are not yet final are marked as such where the status is known.
