7 Dec 2023 DSB: 20,000 EUR against restaurant business over constant surveillance of kitchen and pick-up area €20,000
A restaurant company with a delivery and pick-up service (name pseudonymised) recorded workstations in the kitchen and pick-up area without interruption, even outside opening hours, and stored the recordings for 14 days. In addition, there had been no record of processing activities since 2018; the Austrian data protection authority (Datenschutzbehörde, DSB) imposed 20,000 EUR, and the penalty decision is final.
Even small businesses may not film employees permanently – and they need a record of their processing activities.
