Amazon abused position to obtain third-party sellers’ data, says EC
Amazon has been charged with breaking EU competition laws, using data from its third-party sellers to gain dominance in the market.

The Commission has also launched a probe into whether Amazon gives preferential treatment to sellers that use its logistics services.
