Strange, I only received one email from SlotMagie, although I also have an account with Merkurbets. In any case, thanks for the info!

I'm also registered with all three, but the email from CrazyBuzzer was in the spam folder. Maybe the other two ended up there too?

No, unfortunately not - I didn't receive any information at all, which is actually the next offense. As far as I know, they have to inform you about something like that, don't they?

Yes, it's a violation, but you have to be sure that you really haven't received anything. How long do the emails stay in your spam folder?

Okay funny. Then you really didn't receive any. I think that's a criminal offense and you could also claim extra compensation xD

Not a criminal offense, but another violation of the GDPR, because the dimension " is likely to result in a high Risk to the personal rights and freedoms of natural persons" according to Art. 34 GDPR. However, the extent to which this leads to a claim for damages has not yet been clarified, nor has the question of whether a breach of the duty to provide information can give rise to such a claim.

Hello Mr. ...,
thank you for contacting us. We have checked your request and can provide you with the following information.
Despite extensive security measures, the IT system of one of our service providers was the target of a cyber attack by a so-called white-hat hacker. White-hat hackers act without intent to cause harm and regularly report security vulnerabilities in systems in order to improve the security of IT systems. The official and internal investigation of security vulnerabilities revealed that incorrectly configured interfaces on the website merkurbets.de made it possible for a registered customer to theoretically view the data of other customers. However, the data was not readily accessible, but required a particularly high level of specialist knowledge and the circumvention of various security measures. As far as we are currently aware, no other unauthorized third parties apart from the white-hat hacker were able to access the data. The white-hat hacker has not expressed any intention to pass on or misuse the information obtained.
Actions on the Internet are associated with certain risks and cyber security is a continuous process that is subject to ongoing adjustments. Just because the security configurations on a company's website need to be adjusted does not mean that this is due to misconduct on the part of the company or that the company has violated laws or regulations. Nor does such liability arise from the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Furthermore, to the best of our knowledge, no material damage has been caused to our customers, as we have not detected any misuse by or disclosure of data to unauthorized third parties.
Against this background, we therefore do not see ourselves in a position to comply with any request for payment of damages. In cooperation with the supervisory authority responsible for us, which drew our attention to the improvement of the security loopholes, we immediately adjusted them. Against this background, we see no basis for complying with your request.
We will contact you separately with regard to your request for information within the meaning of Art. 15 GDPR.
We hope that your request has been answered comprehensively and to your satisfaction.
Yours sincerely
Your MERKUR BETS Team
