But that was not all, she also claimed that the company had created an email account using her number and personal email as a recovery account without her consent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-4 wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"color:#000000\">For its part, the Respondent admitted in an e-mail that it had shared the telephone number on the understanding that it was the one it was going to use to carry out its work, alleging that the worker had not provided another means of contact to the entity and that they had not been able to locate her to coordinate the project activities. She also claimed that during the recruitment process, a protocol had been established whereby a consent form was provided to obtain consent, but that in this case it had not been returned signed and that, after the incident, the internal protocols were revised and a double-checking system was introduced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-5\" id=\"h-sancionan-a-una-empresa-con-6-000-por-compartir-un-numero-de-telefono-privado\" style=\"color:#0f3780;font-size:24px\">Company fined \u20ac6,000 for sharing a private telephone number<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The entity was imposed an administrative penalty of \u20ac6,000, which was later reduced to \u20ac3,600 for prompt payment, and an express order from the AEPD to review its internal processes to ensure that the use of personal data is based on a valid consent of the data subject and that, in addition, it is verifiable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With this case we can draw a clear conclusion: even a good intention is not a lawful purpose for which personal data can be processed. You need a legal basis for it and that basis is in Article 6 of the GDPR.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":16269,"template":"noticias-corporativa-single-post.php","categories":[],"tags":[214,212],"novedades_corporativa":[],"class_list":["post-35352","noticias","type-noticias","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","tag-gdpr","tag-news","entry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v28.5 (Yoast SEO v28.5) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Can I share an employee&#039;s personal phone?<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"The use of employees&#039; personal data must be based on the consent of the individual.
