Decision of the Swedish Authority for Privacy
Protection
The case is closed.
Reasoning for the decision
The Swedish Authority for data protection (IMY) has received a complaint from you
against Klarna Bank AB. The complaint was transferred from the supervisory authority
of the Member State where you lodged your complaint (Germany) in accordance with
the provisions of the GDPR on cooperation in cross-border processing. IMY has
handled the case as responsible supervisory authority for the company’s operations
pursuant to Article 56 of the GDPR.
It follows from Article 57(1)(f) of the GDPR that IMY shall handle complaints lodged by
a data subject who consider that their personal data is being processed in a manner
contrary to the Regulation and investigate, to the extent appropriate, the subject matter
of the complaint.
On 28 August 2024, IMY asked the German supervisory authority to forward a letter to
you. In this letter IMY asked you whether your complaint was still relevant. The
German supervisory authority has thereafter informed IMY that you have written to
them on 27 September 2024 informing that the case can be closed.
Thus, since you now have withdrawn the complaint, IMY finds no reason to further
investigate the complaint.
IMY closes the case.
