26 Aug 2026 O2 Czech Republic a.s.; SHERLOG Technology, a.s.O2 Czech Republic and SHERLOG: 280 million CZK for customer allocation in vehicle tracking CzechiaCartels and collusion €11.7m

From December 2012 to June 2022, the two companies allocated customers for vehicle tracking and electronic logbook services between themselves and coordinated bids, including in public tenders. At first instance, the Úřad pro ochranu hospodářské soutěže (Czech Office for the Protection of Competition, ÚOHS) fined O2 262.32 million CZK and SHERLOG 18.357 million CZK and imposed a six-month ban on public contracts; for O2, the fine was increased instead of a procurement ban.

What organisations can take from it

Do not let sales cooperation with competitors turn into customer allocation – e-mail arrangements about individual tenders are the typical evidence.

Relevance to training and awareness

Coordination with cooperation partners on customers and tenders

15 Apr 2024 Avast Software s.r.o.Avast: 351 million CZK for passing browsing histories to Jumpshot CzechiaData subject rights and transparency €13.9m

In 2019, the antivirus manufacturer passed pseudonymised browsing histories of around 100 million users to its subsidiary Jumpshot, which sold insights into online behaviour to marketing clients. The data declared as anonymous allowed re-identification and users were misinformed; the Úřad pro ochranu osobních údajů (Czech data protection authority, ÚOOÚ) imposed a final fine of 351 million CZK.

What organisations can take from it

Pseudonymised data are not anonymous data – anyone passing on usage data must assess re-identification risks and inform users honestly.
