What happened
The UK DPA (ICO) served an Enforcement Notice against the credit reference agency Experian, after it found that Experian violated the transparency principle and failed to uphold data subject rights. Experian must make significant changes to how it handles people’s personal data in its direct marketing practices – or face sanctions.
