Google faces additional privacy policy probe in Europe
2013-02-19 08:51:00| Telecompaper Headlines
(Telecompaper) EU regulators are stepping up their actions over Google's privacy policy. The 27 privacy regulators, led by France's CNIL, told Google last October that it had three to four months to make changes to its privacy policy or face regulatory action. After the four months to comply with the European data protection regulation and implement the regulators' recommendations, Google has given "no answer", the CNIL said. The European regulators now intend to set up a working group, led by CNIL, to "coordinate their repressive action which should take place before summer". An action plan for tackling the issue was drawn up at a meeting of the regulators late last month and is expected to gain approval at a meeting on 26 February. Last year, Google consolidated more than 60 separate product privacy notices into one unified policy. This prompted an investigation by regulators of personal data access in the EU. The authorities recommended Google improve data subjects' access to information and clarify the combined use of data across Google's services. In addition Google was asked to provide precise retention periods for the personal data it processes.
