Dutch DPA fines Uber €290 million
Uber has been fined €290 million in the Netherlands for sending European taxi drivers' data to the US without appropriate safeguards in violation of the EU's GDPR. The Dutch data protection authority, which adjudicated a complaint originally filed in France on behalf of more than 170 drivers there, says Uber has since stopped the practice. Uber contests this decision; the appeal is expected to take four years. Earlier in 2024, the authority also fined Uber €10 million for infringing privacy regulations with respect to drivers' data.
