19 Feb 2026 AZOP: 100,000 EUR against estate agent over ID copies and old files CroatiaData subject rights and transparency €100,000

An estate agency (name not published) kept 11,887 brokerage contracts from 2010 to 2019, together with 914 copies of identity cards, passports and bank cards, without a legal basis, although the managing director stated that no card copies were collected. The Croatian data protection authority (Agencija za zaštitu osobnih podataka, AZOP) also criticised irregular and inadequate data protection training for employees and imposed 100,000 EUR (date of publication; exact date of the decision not stated).

What organisations can take from it

Make copies of identity documents and cards only with a legal basis, destroy old files on time and train employees regularly.

Relevance to training and awareness

Data minimisation for ID copies, retention periods

Missing or inadequate training played a role in the decision.
