France's data protection authority, the Commission nationale de l'informatique et des libertés, fined rental scooter company Cityscoot 125,000 euros for collecting and maintaining a record of vehicles' geolocation data. The CNIL said Cityscoot failed to comply with data minimization and contractual framework obligations under the EU General Data Protection Regulation, and also violated the French Data Protection Act by failing to inform users and obtain consent to access the data.
