Dutch threaten Facebook with fine over privacy investigation

2015-05-06 11:19:00| Telecompaper Headlines

(Telecompaper) The Dutch privacy regulator (CBP) said it will fine Facebook for not providing all the information the regulator requested, for its investigation into Facebook's privacy policy, the NOS reported. Facebook responded that it will provide further information on part of the CBP's question about the regulator's jurisdiction and the applicability of the country's privacy rules. CBP will wait to impose the fine after evaluating the information. At the end of last year, the CBP said it would look into Facebook's privacy policy. The investigation was prompted by the company's announcement of new privacy conditions for Facebook users from January. The privacy policy went into effect on 30 January. The CBP wants the requested information to determine its jurisdiction and the applicability of the Data Protection Act (Wbp). The regulator had asked Facebook to delay the implementation of its new privacy policy until the investigation was over. The privacy policy gave Facebook the right to use information and photos in user profiles for commercial purposes.
