What happened

The Danish DPA reprimanded the Danish Financial Supervisory Authority (FSA) for breaching Article 32(1) GDPR by passing on information about whistleblowers to a journalist. The disclosure resulted from an inadequate anonymisation technique when email addresses could still be revealed from redacted PDF documents.
