It’s not just big companies that will receive a GDPR fine from the ICO
The Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) has issued a fine to a London-based pharmacy for £275,000. This was for failing to ensure the security of special category data.
We have all heard about Marriott and British Airways receiving a GDPR fine for data protection regulatory breaches. However, it’s not just big companies that can be fined by the ICO. Doorstep Dispensaree Ltd is a supplier of medicines to customers and care homes. The pharmacy left approximately 500,000 documents in unlocked containers at the back of its premises in Edgware.
