EU privacy regulation governing personal data and cross-border transfers
The Dutch Data Protection Authority has imposed an €825 million fine on Uber for GDPR violations involving automated decision-making that suspended drivers from 2018 to 2022, with human review and appeal processes underscored by regulators.
Ireland’s Data Protection Commission has ruled that Google has infringed GDPR in the processing of location data for Web & App Activity, Location History and Location Accuracy, issuing a €403 million fine and ordering compliance within six months.
