Judges at the Court of Justice of the European Union ruled Tuesday that Google did not have to apply some of the regions privacy standards globally, a blow to Europes efforts to exports its digital rule-making beyond the borders of the 28-country bloc.<\/p>\n

In its decision, the Luxembourg-based court said the so-called right to be forgotten \u2014 or the ability for people based in Europe to demand that Google and others remove certain results linked to peoples names from search results \u2014 should only apply within the European Union.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Court concludes that, currently, there is no obligation under EU law, for a search engine operator who grants a request for de-referencing made by a data subject, as the case may be \u2026 to carry out such a de-referencing on all the versions of its search engine,\u201d the court wrote in a statement. \u201cHowever, EU law requires a search engine operator to carry out such a de-referencing on the versions of its search engine corresponding to all the Member States.\u201d<\/p>\n

The case pitted Frances privacy regulator against the American tech giant over how Google should apply the privacy ruling across its global digital empire.<\/p>\n

It represented a test of how far Europe could push its own digital standards onto the rest of the world, and highlighted how powerful regulators in Brussels and national capitals have now become in deciding how the likes of data protection and competition rules are implemented across the region and beyond.<\/p>\n

The French data protection watchdog had said that only by applying the privacy standard globally, and not just within Europe, could guarantee these links would not show up in regular Google searches in a breach of European law.<\/p>\n

The agency had fined<\/a> the search engine \u20ac100,000 for failing to apply the privacy standard worldwide, which the company had then appealed to Europes highest court.<\/p>\n

\u201cOnce its accepted that something should be taken down, it should apply globally,\u201d Gwendal Le Grand, the CNILs director of technology and innovation told POLITICO before Tuesdays ruling was published.<\/p>\n

Google had pushed back on that view, asking Europes highest court to rule on what geographical limits, if any, should be applied to the regions right to be forgotten. The EUs privacy standard has been copied by others, notably in Russia, but has faced legal pushback elsewhere, including in the United States, over concerns about the right for people to access information online.<\/p>\n

During a legal hearing<\/a> in Luxembourg last year, the search engines lawyers had warned the judges about the harmful effects that a global ruling would have on how people could access information over the internet if Europe was allowed to extend its own privacy standards globally.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe worldwide delisting system proposed by the CNIL is completely untenable,\u201d Patrice Spinosi, Googles lawyer, told the court last year. \u201cSuch a system would unreasonably interfere with the freedom of expression and information, and induce endless conflicts with countries which do not recognize the right to be forgotten.\u201d<\/p>\n

In a separate, but related ruling, the judges said that search engines like Google must remove so-called sensitive data like a persons ethnicity from search results, though should balance those requests with others legitimate right to access information online.<\/p>\n

Privacy vs. freedom of speech<\/h3>\n

The decision ends five years of legal wrangling after the same Luxembourg-based judges ruled in 2014 that Google and other search engines must remove links from online results if they infringed on peoples privacyRead More \u2013 Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
