In a press release on January 19, the National Commission for Information Technology and Liberties (CNIL) announced that it had ordered Yahoo! A fine of 10 million euros, announced at the end of December. The CNIL criticizes the American group for tracking its users on its Yahoo.com portal using about twenty cookies when they asked not to be tracked.
Cookies are digital trackers placed by websites on a user’s device. They are used to identify them consistently, to save their basket of items or their preferences and to offer them targeted advertising.
Instigated by twenty-seven complaints, this investigation, according to the CNIL, allowed the notice of another breach affecting Yahoo Mail messaging: when Internet users wanted to withdraw their consent to advertising tracking, the company informed them, according to the findings of the CNIL. That his action will cause him to lose access to his box.
Since the implementation of the European Regulation on Personal Data (GDPR) in 2018, websites are required to follow strict rules to obtain the consent of internet users before placing their cookies. Google, Meta (Facebook), Amazon, Microsoft, Apple and most recently TikTok have all been approved by the authorities for a total amount of around 400 million euros.
