Authorities from France, Lithuania, the Netherlands and Poland, with support from the European Data Protection Board, are jointly investigating potential EU General Data Protection Regulation violations by Vinted, the parent company of Lithuanian clothing website Vinted.com. Following a “significant number of complaints,” the authorities formed a working group to explore Vinted’s data storage related to data subjects' rights, as well as personal data processing related to blocking users’ accounts. A working document was created to “assess the complaints.”
