"Define specified and explicit purposes;"
What does this even mean? For every piece of data they have to detail where and how it is used? I don't think any major company could do this reliably.
"Inform users with regard to the purposes of the processing implemented;"
Seems like an extension of the first.
"Define retention periods for the personal data processed;"
Forever, but valid.
"Not proceed, without legal basis, with the potentially unlimited combination of users’ data;"
What? Are they saying that the use of data can never change?
"Fairly collect and process passive users’ data ;"
A good one.
"Inform users and then obtain their consent in particular before storing cookies in their terminal."
Their cookie law is freaking ridiculous so they should probably get their head out of there ass to begin with.
Most of this seems like FUD - are there any companies that have these policies in place currently?

- hack37 13y agoGoogle is not "any" company. In light of recent allegations, they collect far too much data for purposes that we don't know. Hence "Define specified and explicit purposes;". Every user is entitled to know what data a company is storing on them. Remember that CNIL protects user interests.
