Evento e danno nella responsabilità per trattamento di dati personali

In the commented decision, the Court of Justice takes a position on the conditions of the compensa- tion of the non-material damage caused by data processing that infringes GDPR pursuant to art. 82, as well as the criteria necessary for determination of the amount of the compensation for dam- ages. The Court is addressing three issues: if the infringement of GDPR is sufficient to cause com- pensation; how can non-material damages be calculated; if national legislation could make com- pensation contingent on achieving a certain level of seriousness. The essay analyzes the Court’s responses, which demonstrate the current extent of compensation for the unlawful processing of personal data in the GDPR system.
