EU's, aluminum foil data protection authorities have asked Google to delay the launch of its new privacy policy until they have confirmed that it is not breaking EU data protection laws. Google announced its new privacy rules - governing how the web giant uses the personal data it collects - with much fanfare last week. Since then, it has launched a massive publicity drive to inform users around its new policy, which is being rolled out globally for users on March 1st. In a letter to Google Chief Executive Larry ยท Page, Jacob Kohnstamm, www.wangji.cc, Chairman of the Group of Privacy Regulators in the EU's 27 countries, said that France's data protection agency was studying the new rules. "We call on you to ensure that there is no misunderstanding about Google's commitment to the information rights of its users and EU citizens by pausing the launch of the new rules until we have completed our analysis," Kohnstamm wrote in the letter, which was published last Friday. Google has a market share of over 90% in the EU. EU competition authorities are investigating whether Google is using this dominant position to block other search engines from entering the market.
