What major ride sharing company is now getting fined for GDPR violations for the third time since 2018? The first was of course in 2018, and the others happened this year.
This time, the fine is 325 million over the transfer of data to the United States.
As usual, they’re fighting this one, and the appeal can take up to 4 years. Because of the appeal, they don’t have to pay anything until it is resolved in their favor or the investigation is complete.
They’re being fined through chapter 5 of the GDPR, yet they claim that chapter 3 covers them under the cross transfer clause.
