27 May 2025 Yliopiston ApteekkiYliopiston Apteekki: 1.1 million EUR over tracking in online shop – court annuls fine overturned
In 2018–2022, the online pharmacy transmitted purchase data, including data on prescription medicines, to the tracking providers via Google and Meta tracking. The sanctions board of the Tietosuojavaltuutetun toimisto (Office of the Data Protection Ombudsman) imposed 1.1 million EUR and a reprimand; on 1 June 2026 the Helsingin hallinto-oikeus (Helsinki Administrative Court) upheld the infringement but annulled the fine because it was unclear whether a fine may be imposed on the university pharmacy at all (not final).
