Netflix fined 4 million euros for personal data breach

Netflix has been fined 4.75 million euros by the Dutch data protection authority for a breach of customer data.

The investigation "shows that Netflix did not clearly inform users about the data collection between 2018 and 2020," the Dutch data protection agency said in a statement, according to Bloomberg.

"Furthermore, customers did not receive sufficient information when they asked Netflix what data the company was collecting about them," the regulator said.
