ALT Privacy win: French electronics retailer Fnac Darty fined €7 million
ALT Today, the French data protection authority (CNIL) has fined Fnac Darty (one of the largest electronics retailers in France) €7 million for illegally using third-party trackers on its mobile app without consent. The fine is the result of a noyb complaint filed in 2023. In case of non-compliance with the decision, Fnac Darty faces a daily penalty of €10,000. The companies’ apps illegally accessed and shared users’ personal data with third parties for sophisticated analytics as soon as the apps were opened. In addition to France, Fnac Darty is also active in countries such as Spain, Italy, Portugal, Belgium, and Switzerland.
ALT “The CNIL made once again very clear that processing people's data for personalised advertising requires consent. While this kind of tracking remains a widespread practice, we hope that this decision sets the tone for cases of illegal tracking.” Lisa Steinfeld Leiser data protection lawyer, noyb
