02What happened, and where it sits

Maxen Power Supply Limited received an ICO enforcement notice on 8 June 2023. The Commissioner acted under the Privacy and Electronic Communications (EC Directive) Regulations 2003, citing PECR regulation 21 and PECR regulation 24. An order to act. An enforcement notice requires the organisation to take, or stop taking, specified steps by a deadline, and failure to comply is itself an offence. PECR is a separate instrument from the UK GDPR, so this is an ICO penalty under the marketing rules and not a GDPR fine.

No sum is attached to this action. Enforcement notices are corrective, not financial, which is why Maxen Power Supply Limited appears on the register without a figure beside it.

Maxen Power Supply Limited is filed under Utilities, which accounts for 11 of the 216 actions on the register (5%). In 2023 the ICO published 80 enforcement actions in total, 21 of them enforcement notices. 87 actions on the register name PECR 2003.

Counted from the oldest entry forward, this is the 59th of 216 actions on the register and the 2nd of 11 in Utilities. The ICO published 3 actions on 8 June 2023, so this one was part of a batch: Crown Glazing Ltd (monetary penalty) and Crown Glazing Ltd (enforcement notice). Maxen Power Supply Limited appears 2 times on this register: enforcement notice on 8 June 2023 and monetary penalty on 8 June 2023. The ICO publishes 2 documents for this action, 403 KB in total: "Maxen Power Supply Limited enforcement notice" and "Maxen Power Supply Limited monetary penalty notice". They are the authority for everything on this page.

03The ICO's own account

The law behind this action

PECR 2003

PECR governs electronic marketing, cookies and communications-service security. It is a separate instrument from the UK GDPR: an action taken under PECR is not a GDPR fine, and the register pages here never describe it as one.

What a enforcement notice does

GDPRFine.com is an independent tracker of ICO enforcement. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by or connected to the Information Commissioner's Office, and it uses no ICO branding. Where the ICO's own wording is reproduced it is quoted and attributed; everything else on these pages is our own summary of the published record.

The ICO's register held 222 entries on that date. 6 of them are prosecutions of named individuals, with ages and home towns in the ICO's own summary. This tracker indexes organisations, so those 6 are excluded and every count on these pages is out of 216. They remain on the ICO's own register.

An entry says what the Commissioner did on the date shown. It is not a statement about the organisation today, and the ICO can amend or remove a register entry at any time. Amounts and provisions are as published by the ICO; where the published notice does not state a figure or name a provision, these pages say so rather than filling the gap.
