France Threatens to Fine Google a Pittance Over Privacy

2013-06-20 19:04:03| TechNewsWorld

France's data protection watchdog, the CNIL, says it will fine Google if the company doesn't rewrite its privacy policy within the next three months. The CNIL will fine Google up to 150,000 euros, or about $200,000, and double that if it fails to act. The CNIL wants Google to give users "defined and explicit purposes" for gathering data and "definite retention periods."
