ECJ Today

We love stats. Here is an interesting one: from April to the end of July (a full 4 months), our AI tool processed roughly 1.5 million words! Of those, only about 32,000 were the summaries prepared by our AI tool. In other words, ECJ Today subscribers saved a lot of time. Instead of having to read through 5,000 to 6,000 pages, they could read just 110 pages of summaries and then decide which documents to explore further. Now that is a value proposition! 🚀 #CJEU #ECJToday

! EU COURT TIGHTENS RULES ON GDPR DAMAGES CLAIMS ! The EU Court of Justice has set stricter criteria for non-material damages claims under GDPR, impacting businesses facing liability from cyber-attacks. According to the recent ruling, compensation for “identity theft” requires concrete evidence of actual misuse of personal data, rather than mere allegations of “loss of control” or potential risks. The CJEU reinforced that Article 82 GDPR is compensatory, not punitive, and that only proven harm can justify damages. Minimal compensation applies if the actual damage is minimal. This ruling follows Advocate General Collins' opinion, marking a significant precedent for GDPR litigation and reinforcing high thresholds for claims. Cases C-182/22, C-189/22, C-590/22 – 24 June !
