64Next, in view of the compensatory rather than punitive function of Article 82 of the GDPR, which is recalled in paragraphs 60 and 61 of the present judgment, the fact that several infringements have been committed by the controller in relation to the same data subject cannot constitute a relevant criterion for the purposes of assessing the compensation to be awarded to that data subject under Article 82. Only the damage actually suffered by that person must be taken into consideration in order to determine the amount of the monetary compensation due by way of compensation.
