18 Dec 2025 Pioneer Hi-Bred Italia Sementi s.r.l.Pioneer Hi-Bred Italia Sementi: 120,000 EUR for monitoring field staff's driving style €120,000
At the instruction of a group company based in Switzerland, the seed company had telematics devices installed in company cars that also recorded private journeys and assigned employees scores for their driving behaviour. Italy's data protection authority (Garante per la protezione dei dati personali) found breaches of transparency, purpose limitation, data minimisation and employee protection rules, imposed 120,000 EUR and ordered the deletion of the data on private journeys.
Group-wide telematics requirements must be assessed against local employment and data protection law before roll-out – especially where vehicles are also used privately.
