The European Parliament, denounced for failing to comply wit

Noyb is the European organization of privacy activists that obtained a historic ruling last summer , known as the Schrems-II ruling. With it, the Court of Justice of the European Union struck down the Privacy Shield , a transatlantic agreement according to which data transfers between the continent and the United States were permitted. The ruling reflected the point of view of Noyb, an organization led by Austrian activist Max Schrems. Noyb understands that the guarantees with which user data is processed in the US are not comparable to the guarantees that exist in Europe, and since there was no reciprocity, the agreement could not continue in force. Since then, Noyb has sued dozens of companies. The legal battle is not over, and new fronts are opening every day. This is specifically directed against one of the main institutions of the EU: the European Parliament.



In a statement , Noyb has detailed that it is denouncing the European Parliament and Ecolog, a German company that provided a coronavirus testing service at the Brussels facilities. She has done so before an autonomous body of the Union: the European Data Protection Supervisor (EDPS). The complaint is made by Noyb on behalf of six MEPs. Ecolog is the German firm that has provided a service to perform PCR tests since the pandemic began. For this purpose, they have a tent installed in one of the parking Europe Cell Phone Number List lots next to the Chamber. The service, known as EcoCare , also has a website. Amazon is raising the rate that thousands of companies pay to sell products in Spain through its platform because of the Google rate Noyb has denounced both the European Parliament and EcoCare (Ecolog) because through that website user data has been transferred to third parties - such as Google - and cookies have been authorized that had not been properly informed, as discovered by several MEPs. and details the activist association itself in a statement.







For the PCR testing service to work correctly, EcoCare had a website through which European parliamentarians, their advisors and Chamber workers could register by entering their personal data . Noyb clarifies that no health data has been sent to the US, since the page only functioned as an appointment system and the test results were sent through other channels. In addition to sending information about its users to Google—through the Google Analytics metrics system, which is used to measure the audience of a web page in real time—Noyb accuses EcoCare of having allowed a cookie from Stripe, another company with headquarters in the USA. Noyb understands this as "illegal data transfers" to the United States, precisely despite the Schrems-II ruling handed down by the Court of Justice of the European Union last summer. "Stripe and Google are clearly subject to US surveillance laws, which allow them to target EU citizens. This is especially relevant given that the exposed individuals are politically relevant to the EU, as are their assistants. and workers".
