8 Sep 2025 SIA "ZZ Dats"IT service provider ZZ Dats pays 300,000 EUR after data leak as processor LatviaData breaches and data security €300,000

Unknown persons accessed the system operator’s databases via several websites and obtained personal data. The Datu valsts inspekcija (Latvian Data State Inspectorate, DVI) initially imposed 400,000 EUR; in the objection procedure, the director set aside the allegation relating to the company’s role as controller because ZZ Dats was a processor, and set the fine at 300,000 EUR for insufficient security measures under Art. 32 GDPR. The company has brought an action.
