Microsoft's Xandr fined NOK 92M in Norway over Grindr user data

Not yet final

Norway's Datatilsynet found that Xandr, the advertising technology company formerly called AppNexus and now owned by Microsoft, was a joint controller with Grindr when it relayed Norwegian Grindr users' data through real-time bidding between July 2018 and April 2020. The data revealed users' sexual orientation, which required explicit consent, and Xandr did not check that Grindr's consents were valid.
