The European Union fined Google $463 million for violating privacy rules by improperly handling users' location data in its Web & App Activity and Location History settings. Ireland's Data Protection Commission found Google failed to process this data lawfully and transparently, including in the Location Accuracy feature on Android. The investigation covered Google's practices from 2018 to early 2020, before policy updates were made. This is the fourth largest privacy fine by the Irish regulator, which continues to investigate Google on other privacy issues.
