Also, the complainant wanted to withdraw his complaint. As the complaint wanted to withdraw this case, it is closed.

Case on 25 October 2023
2023年10月25日的案件
Data controller sent to the complainant an e-mail informing that he could issue transportation card via electronic system if he must first provide his personal data in order to access the transportation card issuance system. Therefore, the complainant received another e-mail from the data controller reporting that his transportation card benefit had been suspended, and he had accepted this suspension when he gave consent to the processing of personal data as required by the data controller. This was contrary to the complainant’s understanding that the consent was for the issuance of a transportation card only, rather than for the suspension of his rights.
資料控制者向申訴人發送了一封電子郵件，通知他如果必須先提供個人資料才能存取交通卡發行系統，可以透過電子系統向他發行交通卡。因此，申訴人收到資料控制者發來的另一封電子郵件，報告其交通卡福利已被暫停，當他同意按照資料控制者的要求處理個人資料時，他就接受這項暫停。這與申訴人的理解相反，申訴人的同意只是為了發放交通卡，而不是為了中止其權利。
The data controller must notify the Office of the PDPC of the outcome of remedial actions pursuant to the above order or to take any action to suppress damage within 30 days from the date of receiving the order.
資料控制者必須在收到命令之日起 30 天內，將根據上述命令採取的補救措施的結果通知 PDPC 辦公室，或採取任何行動來抑制損害。
Case on 15 November 2023
2023年11月15日的案件
A complaint filed case to the Expert Committee stating that his name and image of his medical license were acquired by another person who pretended to be a licensed healthcare professional, which led to the service recipients and the public being misled and the complainant suffering damage to his reputation. However, the Expert Committee claimed that the complaint did not verify that the accused is a data controller who violated or failed to comply with the PDPA. Hence, the Expert Committee was unable to make a determination of the complaint.
申訴人向專家委員會申訴，指申訴人的姓名及行醫執照圖像被冒充執業醫護人員的人士取得，導致服務對象及公眾受到誤導，投訴的聲譽蒙受損失。他的聲譽然而，專家委員會聲稱，投訴並未證實被告是違反或未遵守《個人資料保護法》的資料控制者。因此，專家委員會無法就申訴作出裁決。
