What happened

The Swedish DPA fined the Stockholm Public Transport (SL) €1,565,792 EUR (16 million SEK). It held that SL did not have lawful grounds for processing the personal data of public transport travelers through the use of employee body cameras. Information about data processing by the cameras was not provided to the public, and furthermore, the processing of data by the cameras violated the principle of data minimization.
