EU Court Rejects WhatsApp Challenge Against EU Data Protection Board
PARIS—The Court of Justice of the European Union has dismissed as inadmissible an action brought by WhatsApp against a decision of the European Data Protection Board, it said in a statement on Wednesday.
Following complaints about Whatsapp’s use of personal data in Ireland and a European Data Protection Board (EDPB) ruling on the issue, the Irish Data Protection Commission in 2021 imposed corrective measures on Whatsapp and fines totaling 225 million euros.
WhatsApp had challenged that decision before an Irish court and also requested that the European Court of Justice annul the EDPB’s ruling, but the court ruled that Whatsapp’s action was inadmissible. It added that the validity of the EDPB’s decision could be challenged before a national court.
