Handhaving in de praktijk
Booking.com was fined €475,000 by the Dutch AP in 2021 for failing to report a data breach within 72 hours — over 4,000 customers had their personal data exposed. For smaller hotels, the most common enforcement action involves cookie consent violations: the AP has issued warnings to hospitality businesses whose websites set tracking cookies from booking widgets before visitors gave consent.
