The sanctioning activity at the European and national level regarding data protection was analysed, and the main documents of interest from both the AEPD and the European Data Protection Committee (CEPD) were commented, among which that relating to guidance on treatments that incorporate Wi-Fi tracking technology or that are related to the collection of neuro data.
