Referring court

Parties to the main proceedings

Applicant: GP

Defendant: juris GmbH

Operative part of the judgment

1.Article 82(1) of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016 on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data, and repealing Directive 95/46/EC (General Data Protection Regulation) must be interpreted as meaning that an infringement of provisions of that regulation which confer rights on the data subject is not sufficient, in itself, to constitute ‘non-material damage’ within the meaning of that provision, irrespective of the degree of seriousness of the damage suffered by that person.

2.Article 82 of Regulation 2016/679 must be interpreted as meaning that it is not sufficient for the controller, in order to be exempted from liability under paragraph 3 of that article, to claim that the damage in question was caused by the failure of a person acting under his or her authority, within the meaning of Article 29 of that regulation.

3.Article 82(1) of Regulation 2016/679 must be interpreted as meaning that in order to determine the amount of damages due as compensation for damage based on that provision, it is not necessary, first, to apply mutatis mutandis the criteria for setting the amount of administrative fines laid down in Article 83 of that regulation and, second, to take account of the fact that several infringements of that regulation concerning the same processing operation affect the person seeking compensation.
