However, whether Italy will be able to collect the €20M penalty from Clearview, a US-based entity, is one rather salient question. In December France's CNIL also ordered Clearview to cease processing citizens' data and gave it two months to delete any data it held but did not mention a financial sanction. It's the strongest enforcement yet from a European privacy watchdog, with the UK's ICO warning back in November of a possible fine when it also ordered Clearview to stop processing data. My intentions and those of my company have always been to help communities and their people to live better, safer lives. I am heartbroken by the misinterpretation by some in Italy, where we do no business, of Clearview AI’s technology to society. We only collect public data from the open internet and comply with all standards of privacy and law. Update: In a statement attributed to CEO, Hoan Ton-That, Clearview said: "Clearview AI's activity therefore violates the freedoms of the data subjects, including the protection of confidentiality and the right not to be discriminated against," the authority also said.Ĭlearview was contacted for comment on the latest GDPR sanction. Other General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) breaches it identified included transparency obligations (on account of Clearview not having adequately informed users of what it was doing with their selfies) violations of purpose limitation and having used user data for purposes other than those for which they were published online and also breaches of data retention rules with no limit on storage. "The findings revealed that the personal data held by the company, including biometric and geolocation data, are processed illegally, without an adequate legal basis, which certainly cannot be the legitimate interest of the American company," the Garante said in a press release.
