2 Nov 2024 OpenAIGarante: 15 million EUR against OpenAI over ChatGPT – later annulled by the court overturned
Italy's data protection authority (Garante per la protezione dei dati personali) imposed 15 million EUR because OpenAI trained ChatGPT with user data without an appropriate legal basis, breached transparency obligations, failed to report a data breach from March 2023 and did not provide for age verification; in addition, a six-month information campaign was ordered. The Rome Court (Tribunale di Roma) upheld OpenAI's action in judgment no. 4153/2026 (published on 18 March 2026); the Garante subsequently removed the decision from its website.
Companies that train AI models with personal data need a documented legal basis and age verification in advance.
