Amsterdam court dismisses players’ data case against Unibet

Regulation

Amsterdam’s District Court dismissed a case brought by players seeking access to personal data and compensation from Kindred’s Unibet over gambling activity between 2010 and 2024. The court found that Gokverliesterug had not supplied documents showing it was not profit-focused and had not clarified its role in representing the players; the source gives no appeal outcome.

The ruling addresses whether a claims organisation can represent players seeking data from a gambling operator under GDPR.
