Austrian DSB decides on Flimmit streaming complaint after 1.5 years

In September 2020 the Austrian Data Protection Authority (DSB) issued a decision on the complaint against Vienna streaming service Flimmit filed by noyb. The DSB rejected the complaint because Flimmit provided the missing information about data transmission during the procedure, allowing the case to be closed without substantive examination. No fine was imposed.

Why it matters: The decision highlights procedural delays and the ability of data controllers to avoid penalties by providing post‑complaint information.
