Who we represent in the Actions against Meta
Data Privacy Stichting has initiated two Actions against Meta, and is thereby supported by the Consumentenbond. Below you will find what these actions are about and who can register for them:
1. The first action is brought by the Foundation against Facebook Netherlands B.V., Meta Platforms, Inc., and Meta Platforms Ireland Ltd. It is about sharing personal data with third parties without properly informing and by using personal data for advertising purposes without the required permission. You belong to the group of aggrieved parties for this action if you have used the Facebook service at any time within the period from April 1, 2010 until the present and were residing in the Netherlands at that time.
2. The second action is against Meta Platforms Inc. and Meta Platforms Ireland Ltd. This is about the unlawful transfer of personal data outside of Europe without adequate protection against government surveillance. For this second action, you belong to the group of aggrieved Parties if you used Facebook and/or Instagram at any time between May 25, 2018 and the present and were living in the Netherlands at that time.
