General Court (Fourth Chamber, sitting with five Judges) 7 December 2022, T-709/21 (WhatsApp Ireland Ltd v European Data Protection Board.)
Also known as
The General Court ruled on the annulment action brought by WhatsApp Ireland Ltd against the European Data Protection Board's Binding Decision 1/2021, which addressed disputes among supervisory authorities regarding WhatsApp's compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). The Court determined that the contested decision was a preparatory act not open to challenge, as it lacked individual concern and did not constitute an act of the European Union that could be contested under Article 263 TFEU. Consequently, the Court dismissed WhatsApp's application, affirming the EDPB's authority in resolving such disputes under the GDPR framework.AI
