150,000 by the French data protection supervisory authority, the CNIL, after
the regulator failed to resolve concerns that its unified privacy policy of
breaking the French data protection law.
A single policy,
Consolidating more than 60 separate privacy documents into effect in March 2012,
Despite Concerns from European regulators that’s it violated the European
Directive on Data Protection. In addition to the fine, the CNIL also ruled that
Google had to display a message about € 150,000 Ruling and a link to the CNIL
statement on the case, on its Google.fr page for at least 48 hours.
Google is appealing the
fine, and this week asked the French Conseil d' Etat Present their duty to
display a statement on hold until process has run its course. The company said
that putting a message on its website Caused “irreparable damage to your Reputation.”
According to the court,
Google has not shown by publishing a report on the matter to cause such damage.
In addition, the Conseil d' Etat judge also said that Google has warned its customers
that did not agree with the CNIL Decision notice published on its website an
