60Furthermore, the Court inferred from the fact that the right to compensation provided for in Article 82(1) of the GDPR does not fulfil a deterrent, or even punitive, function that the gravity of the infringement of that regulation that caused the alleged material or non-material damage cannot influence the amount of the compensation granted under that provision. It follows that that amount cannot exceed the full compensation for that damage (see, to that effect, judgment of 21 December 2023, Krankenversicherung Nordrhein, C‑667/21, EU:C:2023:1022, paragraph 86).
