American Express' (AXP) France unit has been fined (Euro)1.5 million euros ($1.8 million) for failing to comply with cookie rules, France's data protection authority CNIL said Wednesday.
The ruling follows inspections carried out since January 2023 at the company's premises and on its French website.
CNIL said the fine reflects multiple failures to respect user consent - including placing cookies without consent, placing them despite a refusal, and continuing to read cookies even after consent had been withdrawn.
