Amazon Loses Appeal Against Record €746M GDPR Fine

Amazon has lost its appeal against a record €746 million ($812M) fine imposed by Luxembourg’s privacy regulator (CNPD) for violating EU GDPR rules.

The court sided with the CNPD, which had penalized Amazon for improperly processing personal data. While Amazon is considering further appeals, the ruling underscores Europe’s strict approach to data protection and its willingness to enforce the GDPR at the highest levels.

The CNPD also included measures for Amazon to remedy the data violations, although implementation is currently suspended during the appeal period.
