The Office for Personal Data Protection ('GPDP') announced, on 12 March 2021, that it had imposed, in July 2020, several fines totalling MOP 1.08M (approx. €113,300) on Kai Chun One Man Co. Ltd., a company based in Hong Kong, for illegal telemarketing activities. In particular, the GPDP found that the company had been conducting telemarketing activities without a legitimate basis and without complying with individuals' rights to be informed and to object, in violation of Articles 6, 10, and 12 of the Personal Data Protection Act (Act 8/2005). In addition to the administrative penalty, the GPDP also ordered the company to cease any further processing of personal data used and to delete such personal data.
