Defendant: Gemeinde Ummendorf
Operative part of the judgment
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 precluding national legislation or a national practice which sets a ‘de minimis threshold’ in order to establish non-material damage caused by an infringement of that regulation. The data subject is required to show that the consequences of the infringement which he or she claims to have suffered constitute damage which differs from the mere infringement of the provisions of that regulation.
