13 Oct 2025 Sport & Spa Gest, S.L.AEPD: 17,600 EUR against sports centre over location tags for swimmers SpainData subject rights and transparency €17,600

The operator of a sports facility rented a Bluetooth system with which swimmers were located in the pool via tags and their training was recorded. The Spanish data protection authority (Agencia Española de Protección de Datos, AEPD) imposed 8,000 EUR for the processing of special categories of data and – after a 20% reduction for immediate payment – 4,000, 2,400 and 3,200 EUR for lack of a legal basis, insufficient information and a deficient impact assessment (17,600 EUR in total); the request for reconsideration was unsuccessful.

What organisations can take from it

New tracking or sensor technology in customer-facing operations requires a legal basis, information and a genuine impact assessment in advance.
