Quote:

[..] “Insufficient consent

According to the SINTEF report, Grindr shares personal data with different of third parties.

When a user registers a user account in Grindr, the app asks for consent to the terms of service in whole, without individual elements being emphasized or singled out (see attached picture).

In the view of the Consumer Council, information about sensitive personal  data being shared with third parties should not be hidden away in long terms of service and privacy policies. The Consumer Council cannot see that Grindr fulfill  the conditions for gathering an informed and explicitly given consent.

During the process of registration and inside the app, there is no further description of how data may be shared, other than what is hidden away in the terms of service and privacy policy. There is also no separate consent for sharing sensitive personal data with third parties.

The app does not provide an opportunity to not share personal data with third parties.”
