Summary

Senegal's CDP plenary session issued a formal notice (mise en demeure) under article 29-1 against SETER, the operator of the Dakar regional express train, for failing to respect data subjects' right to prior information and to declare its vehicle-geolocation system. SETER was ordered within one month to declare the system, suspend its exploitation until both SETER and the vehicle-leasing company were in conformity, and put in place procedures for data subjects to exercise their rights, with publication of the notice ordered and referral to the sanction committee under article 30-2 in case of non-compliance. The Q4-2022 Avis reports that SETER subsequently completed the prior formalities, with the file still under instruction. Reported in Avis Trimestriel N°03-2022; the decision date is recorded at quarter-end precision.
