Google, yes privacy Italian – Computer Point

Rome – Google will adjust to the measures required by the Guarantor Italian privacy: to announce it is the latter, which approved the verification protocol which establishes the agreement with Mountain View later adjustments prescribed for him last July.

Big G had been called into question by the Italian chaired by Antonello Soro with an investigation “established as a result of both the receipt of specific reports, both the results of the investigation conducted by the WP 29 (the working group that encompasses the European authorities), on the legality and fairness of treatment made by the company under the new privacy policy. ” The Guarantor had Google imposed on a number of changes and 18 months to adapt .

Now Google will have to improve its privacy policy, making it more clear, accessible and above differentiating according to services offered, and then developing separate policy for Gmail, Google Wallet, Chrome etc: the changes should be guided by a system of structured information on different levels, so as to provide a first general level the most relevant information for the user, the indication of the types of data processing (localization terminals, IP addresses etc.), the type of data collected, through the address at which contact in Italian to exercise their rights; is then left to a second level, more detailed, more specific communication of the notifications on the individual services.

In addition, if you would outline those who use its services, Google will have to obtain their informed consent: a necessity not only for new accounts but also to existing ones.

The Italian Authority also can check the progress of the work on a quarterly adjustment of the Google platform to the national legislation: to do so will also have the opportunity to carry out verification of compliance with the Italian discipline at the US headquarters of Google.
