CNIL, the French data protection regulator, has closed the formal notice procedure it served on Microsoft on June 30, 2016 over privacy concerns relating to Windows 10. “Since then,” says CNIL, “the company has brought itself into line with data protection rules, the formal notice procedure has therefore been closed.”
In a statement emailed to SecurityWeek, Microsoft commented, “We are committed to protecting our customers’ privacy and putting them in control of their information. We appreciate the French data protection authority’s decision and will continue to provide clear privacy choices and easy-to-use tools in Windows 10.”
