🌐 Worldcoin will have to delete all iris scans in exchange for cryptocurrency 🪙
🚨 Bavarian data protection agency, in collaboration with the Spanish AEPD, orders deletion in application of the European General Data Protection Regulation
The company Worldcoin, promoted by the CEO of OpenAI, Sam Altman, will have to delete the irises scanned from European citizens in exchange for 30 euros in cryptocurrency.
The data protection authority of the German state of Bavaria, the Bayerisches Landesamt für Datenschutzaufsicht (BayLDA), has declared that the company violated several articles of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
🇪🇸 The Spanish Data Protection Agency (AEPD) has actively collaborated in this case.
The agency notes that the company did not implement the necessary measures to prevent the processing of data of minors and therefore maintains an open additional investigation that is still pending resolution.
☝️ Finally, the Bavarian regulator also foresees a series of fines in case these orders are not achieved, apart from the sanctions that could be imposed for not using the GDPR.
