В Еврокомиссии пригрозили Facebook санкциямиFacebook reserves the right to use user information.

Company Facebook waiting for sanctions if it does not lead its user agreement to use personal data in compliance with EU regulations. This was stated by the European Commissioner for justice Vera jourova.

“We expect that Facebook will fulfill its obligations and will revise the user agreement by the end of December. We are working on it for over two years, and I’m starting to lose patience. We need to see the progress and the result. If we do not see the result, followed by sanctions,” she warned.
“Facebook may face sanctions by the national regulators (EU member States) early next year. Sanctions will be imposed after consultation in the EU, if Facebook does not fulfill its obligations”, – said Yurov.

The Commissioner, in particular, noted that Facebook reserves the right to use user information, including after it is removed, which is contrary to the EU regulations on the protection of personal information.

The EU this year introduced a new regulation of the protection of personal data of citizens of the community – GDPR, which obliges social networks and other operators of Internet services to provide users with broad opportunities to control the use of their personal data, including the “right to be forgotten” – the complete and final destruction of their information.
