What happened
The Icelandic DPA rejected a complaint of a data subject which demanded the enforcement of the data subject's right to erasure against a controller's genealogical database. The DPA decided that the controller's processing was justified pursuant to Article 6(1)(f) GDPR and that it was within its rights to refuse the erasure request pursuant to Article 17(3) GDPR.
