13 Nov 2025 Blouberg Local MunicipalityInformation Regulator: ZAR 500,000 against Blouberg municipality over personnel data online €25,309
The municipality had processed personal information of a former employee which was exposed on the internet; the Information Regulator treated this as a gross violation of privacy and issued an enforcement notice. Because the municipality did not implement the corrective instructions, an administrative fine of ZAR 500,000 followed; as it did not pay, the Regulator has initiated court proceedings to recover the amount.
Personnel data remains protected after employees leave; ignoring regulatory orders risks a heavy fine and recovery proceedings.
