Meta cuts price of EU ad-free subscription while undergoing privacy examination.
“[W]e await feedback from the Irish Data Protection Commission [DPC], our lead data protection regulator in the EU,” he added.
While Meta’s compliance with the GDPR is led by the Irish DPC, under the regulation’s one-stop-shop.
This structure does not mean the Irish authority gets final say on Meta’s compliance with EU privacy rules, though.
In the case of Meta, this has frequently led to objections from other data protection authorities which have landed stiffer enforcements than the DPC originally proposed.
So who gets the final say on the GDPR compliance of Meta’s consent mechanism is complex too.
