Working Group
Search engines are not responsible for this information. However, the GT29 stresses that by pooling information from several similar peole, the search engines can make a profile with a higher risk than if the information appeared scattered, and can affect especially to people if the details shown are incorrect, excessive or incomplete. Since these circumstances, the Working Group stated in its Article 29 report, in addition to the need to limit the retention periods, the following conclusions: a Data Protection Directive generally applies to the processing of personal data seekers even if their core businesses are outside Europe. a seekers should only collect personal data for legitimate purposes and the amount of data collected proportionate and not excessive in relation to the purpose. a The Directive 2006/24/EC on data retention does not apply to the search engines. a Search engines must delete or irreversibly anatomize a data once they no longer serve the purpose for which they were collected. a It also states that if the Internet search engines use cookies your life should not be longer than necessary, and these should be installed only if it offers clear information on the purpose for which they were installed and how to access, edit and delete such information. a Internet search engines should provide users clear and intelligible information about their identities and location data and trying to collect, store or transmit as well as the purpose for which they were collected.
