The record fine came after Meta breached a previous court ruling, with data transfers that were &#8220;repetitive and continuous,&#8221; regulators said. Meta said it would appeal the decision.<\/p>\n<p>European Union regulators on Monday fined Facebook owner Meta a record \u20ac1.2 billion ($1.3 billion) over the transfer of EU data to the United States. Meta was also ordered to stop transferring user data across the Atlantic by October. The data transfers came despite a previous EU court ruling. he breach prompted the largest fine &#8220;ever&#8221; under the EU&#8217;s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), said the European Data Protection Board (EDPB), topping the \u20ac746 million fine against Amazon in 2021.<\/p>\n<p>The Irish Data Protection Commission (DPC), which acts on behalf of the European Union, has been investigating Meta&#8217;s transfer of personal data from the EU to the US since 2020. It found that Meta failed to &#8220;address the risks to the fundamental rights and freedoms of data subjects&#8221; that were identified in a previous ruling by the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU).<\/p>\n<p>Meta&#8217;s breach is &#8220;very serious since it concerns transfers that are systematic, repetitive and continuous,&#8221; said Andrea Jelinek, the EDPB chair. &#8220;Facebook has millions of users in Europe, so the volume of personal data transferred is massive,&#8221; Jelinek added. &#8220;The unprecedented fine is a strong signal to organizations that serious infringements have far-reaching consequences.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The case is part of a long-running legal battle over where Facebook stores its data and its involvement in mass surveillance by Anglo-American intelligence agencies. Austrian privacy campaigner Max Schrems first brought a legal challenge against Facebook a decade ago, in light of revelations by former US National Security Agency (NSA) contractor Edward Snowden. Meta said it would appeal the decision, including the &#8220;unjustified and unnecessary fine,&#8221; and seek a stay of the orders through the courts.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dw.com\/en\/eu-fines-meta-12-billion-over-data-transfers-to-us\/a-65695990\">DW<\/a> <\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/csr-news-en\/eu-fines-meta-e1-2-billion-over-data-transfers-to-us\/\">EU fines Meta \u20ac1.2 billion over data transfers to US<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[555,618,274,3394,2071,5417,574],"class_list":["post-114383","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-csr-news-en","tag-data","tag-eu","tag-fine","tag-meta","tag-transfer","tag-us"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/114383","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=114383"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/114383\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=114383"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=114383"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=114383"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
