175 GDPR articles cited in recorded enforcement actions. A case may cite several articles, so article counts and amounts overlap and must not be added together. Select an article to see related cases, fine amounts, and enforcement patterns by country.

The most frequently cited article is "Art. 5(1)(a) GDPR" with 63 enforcement actions and €145.1M in fines, followed by "Art. 13 GDPR" (53 actions). Article hubs require a recognized citation and confirmation of the corresponding EU GDPR or UK GDPR legal basis. A citation alone does not establish an applicable law.
