You say that, but with respect, "the relevant authorities" doesn't add what I'm looking for.

I'm not sure where the confusion comes from?

There is no confusion, there's a lack of concrete factual knowledge. That's different.

Who exactly takes that money? When and how? And how does that translate into a win for the victims?

https://cms.law/en/int/publication/gdpr-enforcement-tracker-... : "Fines are transferred to the state treasury". Which makes sense, this is usually what happens with fines.

(is this a situation of coming from a US background and being confused about how a unitary state works?)
