The Court of Justice has clarified the role of IAB Europe by handing down its ruling in IAB Europe IAB Europe v Gegevensbeschermingsautoriteit. The Court of Justice gave this ruling in connection with IAB Europe’s appeal of the February 2022 decision by the Belgian Data Protection Authority (APD) against IAB Europe and the Transparency and Consent Framework (TCF). This followed the Belgian Market Court’s interim judgement of September 2022 which referred questions to the Court of Justice for a preliminary ruling and held that the APD decision was insufficiently substantiated and failed to meet the relevant standard for proper investigation and fact-finding. IAB Europe considers that the judgment provides well-needed clarity over the concepts of personal data and (joint) controllership, thus allowing a serene completion of the remaining legal proceedings. The case will now return before the Belgian Market Court for judgment on the merits of the case.
