Italys privacy regulator fined Facebook<\/a> \u20ac1 million Friday for violations connected to the Cambridge Analytica scandal \u2014 the largest fine against the social networking giant connected to that case.<\/p>\n

The agency said 57 Italians had downloaded a personality test app called ThisIsYourDigitalLife, which was used to collect Facebook information on both themselves and their Facebook friends. The app was then used to provide data to Cambridge Analytica, a data analytics firm, which used some of the digital information to target voters during the 2016 U.S. presidential election.<\/p>\n

This transfer of data by Facebook to a third-party fell foul of Italys privacy rules, though the agency stressed the information had not been passed to Cambridge Analytica.<\/p>\n

The \u20ac1 million fine follows a previous \u00a3500,000 sanction by the British privacy watchdog, which similarly found that the tech giant had not sufficiently protected<\/a> peoples online data. The Italian competition authority also fined<\/a> Facebook \u20ac10 million in December for failing to inform its users how their data would be used by the digital platform.<\/p>\n

Because the Cambridge Analytica violations occurred before Europe revamped its privacy laws in May last year, including new powers to issue fines of up to 4 percent of a companys global revenue, the regions data protection authorities have limited scope to levy substantial fines against Facebook in this case.<\/p>\n

Earlier this year, Canadian authorities said Facebook <\/p>\n
