This is a throwaway account to preserve my primary Reddit’s username.
I will like to expose a EU institutions (EUIPO) lack of respect for basic data protection rights.
In order to be able to check the lawfulnes of a processing activity carried out by a data controller the data subject should be able to get info about the processing. Basically this is what the right of access is about.
I would like to share with you my data protection horror history while applying for an position at EUIPO. During the selection process my profile on the recruitment platform was manipulated.
I have tried three times to get the logs and the EU institution has failed the three times with very colorful excuses:
1.- By providing me the logs the right of others could be affected.
2.- EUIPO conducted and investigation (that nobody requested) and no irregularity was found…
3.- The third excuse is that I have been repetitive…
I have even recorded a browser session using a third party digital witness where all the irregularities can be found.
