3 Sep 2026 Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria, S.A. – Niederlassung Italien (BBVA Italia)Garante: 5.5 million EUR against BBVA Italia over advertising despite objection ItalyMarketing and consent €5.51m

For seven months (October 2025 to May 2026), the bank continued to send a customer advertising via its app, although he had objected several times. The Italian data protection authority (Garante per la protezione dei dati personali) also found deficient systems for implementing objections and inaccurate information about the processing, and imposed 5,508,000 EUR (Provvedimento No. 613).

What organisations can take from it

An objection to advertising must take effect immediately and reliably across all channels – including app messages.
