                            FOUNDATIONS OF LAW

                                             I
       By virtue of the powers that article 58.2 of the RGPD recognizes to each
control authority, and according to the provisions of articles 47 and 48 of the LOPDGDD,
The Director of the Spanish Agency for Data Protection is competent to initiate

and to solve this procedure.

                                            II
       Law 39/2015, of October 1, on the Common Administrative Procedure of
the Public Administrations, in its article 64 "Agreement of initiation in the

procedures of a sanctioning nature”, provides:

       "1. The initiation agreement will be communicated to the instructor of the procedure, with
transfer of how many actions exist in this regard, and the interested parties will be notified,
understanding in any case by such the accused.
       Likewise, the initiation will be communicated to the complainant when the rules

regulators of the procedure so provide.

       2. The initiation agreement must contain at least:

       a) Identification of the person or persons allegedly responsible.

       b) The facts that motivate the initiation of the procedure, its possible
       rating and sanctions that may apply, without prejudice to what
       result of the instruction.
       c) Identification of the instructor and, where appropriate, Secretary of the procedure, with
       express indication of the system of recusal of the same.

       d) Competent body for the resolution of the procedure and regulation that
       attribute such competence, indicating the possibility that the presumed
       responsible can voluntarily acknowledge their responsibility, with the
       effects provided for in article 85.
       e) Provisional measures that have been agreed by the body
       competent to initiate the sanctioning procedure, without prejudice to those that

       may be adopted during the same in accordance with article 56.
       f) Indication of the right to formulate allegations and to the hearing in the
       procedure and the deadlines for its exercise, as well as an indication that, in
       If you do not make allegations within the stipulated period on the content of the
       initiation agreement, this may be considered a resolution proposal

       when it contains a precise statement about the responsibility
       imputed.

       3. Exceptionally, when at the time of issuing the initiation agreement
there are not sufficient elements for the initial qualification of the facts that motivate

the initiation of the procedure, the aforementioned qualification may be carried out in a phase
later by drawing up a List of Charges, which must be notified to
the interested".


C/ Jorge Juan, 6 www.aepd.es
28001 – Madrid sedeagpd.gob.es, 4/10








       In application of the previous precept and taking into account that no
formulated allegations to the initial agreement, it is appropriate to resolve the procedure
initiated.


                                            III
       The claimed facts materialize in the publication without legitimation or
consent or authorization by the person claimed in their TWITTER social network profile
of audiovisual material captured during the oral trial held on ***DATE.1
in the Criminal Court no. 2 of Manresa, of the different procedural parts and

interveners, which supposes the violation of the regulations in terms of protection
of personal data.

       Article 58 of the RGPD, Powers, states:


       "two. Each supervisory authority will have all of the following powers
corrections listed below:

       (…)
       i) impose an administrative fine under article 83, in addition to or in
       Instead of the measures mentioned in this section, according to the

       circumstances of each particular case;
       (…)”


       Article 6, Legality of the treatment, of the RGPD establishes:


       1. The treatment will only be lawful if at least one of the following is met
terms:

       a) the interested party gave their consent for the processing of their data

       personal for one or more specific purposes;
       b) the treatment is necessary for the execution of a contract in which the
       interested party is a party or for the application at the request of the latter of measures
       pre-contractual;
       c) the treatment is necessary for the fulfillment of a legal obligation
       applicable to the data controller;

       d) the processing is necessary to protect the vital interests of the data subject or
       of another natural person;
       e) the treatment is necessary for the fulfillment of a mission carried out in
       public interest or in the exercise of public powers vested in the controller
       of the treatment;

       f) the treatment is necessary for the satisfaction of legitimate interests
       pursued by the data controller or by a third party, provided that
       over said interests do not prevail the interests or the rights and freedoms
       fundamental data of the interested party that require the protection of personal data,
       in particular when the interested party is a child.

       The provisions of letter f) of the first paragraph shall not apply to
       treatment carried out by public authorities in the exercise of their
       functions.


C/ Jorge Juan, 6 www.aepd.es
28001 – Madrid sedeagpd.gob.es, 5/10








       (…)”.

       On this question of the legality of the treatment, it also affects the

Recital 40 of the aforementioned RGPD, when it states that "For the
processing is lawful, personal data must be processed with the consent
of the interested party or on any other legitimate basis established in accordance with Law, either
either in this Regulation or by virtue of other law of the Union or of the
Member States covered by this Regulation, including the need to
comply with the legal obligation applicable to the data controller or the need to

to execute a contract to which the interested party is a party or in order to take measures
at the request of the interested party prior to the conclusion of a contract.»

       Article 4 of the GDPR, Definitions, in section 11, states that:


       “11) «consent of the interested party»: any manifestation of free will,
specific, informed and unequivocal by which the interested party accepts, either through
a statement or a clear affirmative action, the processing of personal data that
concern him”.

       Also article 6, Treatment based on the consent of the affected party,

of the new Organic Law 3/2018, of December 5, on Data Protection
Personal and guarantee of digital rights (hereinafter LOPDGDD), indicates
what:

       "1. In accordance with the provisions of article 4.11 of the Regulation (EU)

2016/679, consent of the affected party is understood to be any manifestation of will
free, specific, informed and unequivocal by which he accepts, either through a
declaration or a clear affirmative action, the treatment of personal data that
concern.


       2. When the data processing is intended to be based on consent
of the affected party for a plurality of purposes, it will be necessary to state
specific and unequivocal that said consent is granted for all of them.

       3. The execution of the contract may not be subject to the affected party consenting to the
processing of personal data for purposes unrelated to the

maintenance, development or control of the contractual relationship”.

       Therefore, there is evidence that the data processing carried out by
the claimed with the broadcast of the video that reproduces parts of the judicial process in the
that contain the images of the personnel involved in it as a witness or

other procedural condition has been carried out without legitimate cause of those included in the
article 6.1 of the RGPD.

                                            IV
       The infraction attributed to the defendant is typified in the

article 83.5 a) of the RGPD, which considers that the infringement of “the basic principles
for processing, including the conditions for consent under the
articles 5, 6, 7 and 9” is punishable, in accordance with section 5 of the aforementioned
Article 83 of the aforementioned Regulation, "with administrative fines of €20,000,000 as

C/ Jorge Juan, 6 www.aepd.es
28001 – Madrid sedeagpd.gob.es, 6/10








maximum or, in the case of a company, an amount equivalent to 4% as
maximum of the overall annual total turnover of the previous financial year,
opting for the highest amount.


       The LOPDGDD in its article 71, Violations, states that: "They constitute
infractions the acts and behaviors referred to in sections 4, 5 and 6 of the
Article 83 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679, as well as those that are contrary to the
present organic law”.


       And in its article 72, it considers for prescription purposes, which are: "Infringements
considered very serious:

       1. Based on the provisions of article 83.5 of the Regulation (EU)
2016/679 are considered very serious and the infractions that

suppose a substantial violation of the articles mentioned in that and, in
particularly the following:

       (…)
       b) The treatment of personal personal data without the concurrence of any of the
       the conditions of legality of the treatment established in article 6 of the

       Regulation (EU) 2016/679.
       (…)”

                                           v
       The documentation in the file offers clear indications that the

claimed violated article 6.1 of the RGPD, by proceeding to the dissemination without
consent or authorization on the social network twitter of entire fragments of the trial
oral held on 09-21-2020 of the Criminal Court No. 2 of Manresa through its
Twitter account ***USER.1 in which you can see and listen to different
intervening in it.


       In addition, in the copy of the Diligence of proof of the Lawyer provided to the
The file indicates that in all the documented procedural actions of
said procedure has always been warned in relation to the RGPD.

       The claim itself in writing dated 05/03/2021 implicitly recognizes the

publication by informing that although he does not keep a copy of the published video, he could not
specify the approximate time that could remain published on your Twitter account.

       It should be noted that the GDPR excludes tacit consent and requires that it be
explicit. With the entry into force of the RGPD and the new LOPDGDD, only the

express consent. The most important novelty regarding the consent that
incorporates the RGPD is based is that it must be granted through a clear affirmative act
that evidences a free, specific, informed and unequivocal declaration of will
of the interested party to admit the treatment of personal data that affect him;
that there is not the slightest doubt that there has been manifest will on the part of the

client, giving their express consent to be able to treat their personal data with
the specific purposes detailed in the form.



C/ Jorge Juan, 6 www.aepd.es
28001 – Madrid sedeagpd.gob.es, 7/10








        The request for consent must be clear and specific, that it does not unnecessarily alter
the use of the service for which it is provided. All this only emphasizes the need
that you expressly consent to the treatment.





                                            SAW
        In order to establish the administrative fine to be imposed,

observe the provisions contained in articles 83.1 and 83.2 of the RGPD, which
point out:

        "1. Each control authority will guarantee that the imposition of fines
administrative actions under this article for violations of this

Regulation indicated in sections 4, 5 and 6 are in each individual case
effective, proportionate and dissuasive.

        2. Administrative fines will be imposed, depending on the circumstances
of each individual case, in addition to or as a substitute for the measures contemplated
in article 58, paragraph 2, letters a) to h) and j). When deciding to impose a fine

administration and its amount in each individual case will be duly taken into account:

        a) the nature, seriousness and duration of the offence, taking into account the
        nature, scope or purpose of the processing operation in question
        as well as the number of stakeholders affected and the level of damage and

        damages they have suffered;
        b) intentionality or negligence in the infringement;
        c) any measure taken by the controller or processor
        to alleviate the damages suffered by the interested parties;
        d) the degree of responsibility of the person in charge or of the person in charge of the

        treatment, taking into account the technical or organizational measures that have
        applied under articles 25 and 32;
        e) any previous infraction committed by the person in charge or the person in charge of the
        treatment;
        f) the degree of cooperation with the supervisory authority in order to put
        remedying the breach and mitigating the possible adverse effects of the breach;

        g) the categories of personal data affected by the infringement;
        h) the way in which the supervisory authority became aware of the infringement, in
        particular if the person in charge or the person in charge notified the infringement and, in such case,
        what extent;
        i) when the measures indicated in article 58, paragraph 2, have been

        previously ordered against the person in charge or the person in charge in question
        in relation to the same matter, compliance with said measures;
        j) adherence to codes of conduct under article 40 or mechanisms
        approved in accordance with article 42, and
        k) any other aggravating or mitigating factor applicable to the circumstances of the

        case, such as financial benefits realized or losses avoided, direct
        or indirectly, through infringement.



C/ Jorge Juan, 6 www.aepd.es
28001 – Madrid sedeagpd.gob.es, 8/10








       In relation to letter k) of article 83.2 of the RGPD, the LOPDGDD, in its
Article 76, “Sanctions and corrective measures”, establishes that:


       "two. In accordance with the provisions of article 83.2.k) of the Regulation (EU)
2016/679 may also be taken into account:

       a) The continuing nature of the offence.
       b) The link between the activity of the offender and the performance of treatments
       of personal data.

       c) The profits obtained as a result of committing the offence.
       d) The possibility that the conduct of the affected party could have induced the
       commission of the offence.
       e) The existence of a merger by absorption process after the commission
       of the infringement, which cannot be attributed to the absorbing entity.

       f) Affectation of the rights of minors.
       g) Have, when it is not mandatory, a delegate for the protection of
data.
       h) The submission by the person in charge or person in charge, with
       voluntary, to alternative conflict resolution mechanisms, in those
       assumptions in which there are controversies between those and any

       interested."

       In accordance with the precepts transcribed, in order to set the amount of the
sanction of a fine to be imposed in the present case for the infraction typified in the
article 83.5 of the RGPD for which the claimed person is responsible, they are estimated

concurrent the following factors:

       Aggravating circumstances are:

       The scope of the treatment carried out by the claimed party, since it is not necessary to

forget that this has been done through the publication by the social network Twitter whose
diffusion is immediate.

       Several people have been affected by the offending conduct.

       The damage caused, since it is the dissemination of parts of a

judicial process before which due guarantees must be kept.

       The respondent has not indicated the measures to be established in order to prevent the
produce incidents similar to the one that occurred.


       There is no evidence that the defendant had acted maliciously,
although negligent action is observed.

       They are extenuating circumstances:


       The activity of the offender is not linked to the performance of
processing of personal data or there is no record of such
bonding.


C/ Jorge Juan, 6 www.aepd.es
28001 – Madrid sedeagpd.gob.es, 9/10








       The respondent is a natural person.



       Therefore, in accordance with the applicable legislation and having assessed the criteria for
graduation of sanctions whose existence has been proven,
