What happened

The Personuvernd (Icelandic DPA) stated in an opinion that exchanges of personal data of foreign prisoners between state agencies (in this case, between the Immigration Office and the Prison and Probation Service) was permissible, provided that the exchange is necessary for the agencies to carry out their legal obligations and that the agencies ensured a sufficient level of security of the data preventing any unauthorised access.
