Facebook May Face Fine of Up to EUR 36 Million in Ireland Over Privacy

Schrems criticised the findings, saying they amounted to the DPC greenlighting Facebook’s bypassing of the EU’s GDPR privacy rules by moving consent clauses relating to areas such as advertisement and online tracking into its terms and conditions.

A spokesperson for the DPC said it had sent the draft decision to the other supervisory authorities and had no further comment as the process is ongoing.

Facebook’s WhatsApp subsidiary was fined a record EUR 225 million (roughly Rs. 1,965 crores) by the Irish regulator last month after the EU privacy watchdog pressured the DPC to raise the penalty following criticism from other supervisory authorities.

The Twitter DPC also increased a far smaller EUR 450,000 (roughly Rs. 3.9 crores) fine on – its first sanction under the GDPR rules – after similar interventions from other regulators.
