Right to be forgotten: Google received 50,000 applications in France, 170,000 … – ZDNet France

As we know, it’s been several months now that Google has launched its
 form to a European user to request the application
  the judgment of the Cuje on the right to dereference. However, the search engine is pretty stingy with figures that possibility.

When asked by BFM Business, Nick Leeder, managing director of Google France, nevertheless indicated that to date, 50,000 requests for removal had been sent by French users. The figure rises to 170,000 for Europe. Our country represents about 30% of the applications on the Old Continent

And to clarify. “There are some very simple cases where it is essential to remove the links, while other cases are rejected . But between the two? There are cases that are quite complex. It is in the position of the judge, there are cases that are not clear. We talk with many actors to find the right rules to find a device that is more solid. ” This new device could be unveiled in January.

According to the Reputation specialist VIP, through its Forget.me service that acts as an intermediary between its clients and Google (5% of Google applications on it ), the application processing time has clearly accelerated in the past six months. In June, Google placed an average of 56 days to process an application for delisting of URLs. In October according Reputation VIP, the average duration is 26 days

Another parameter has changed very significantly. The nature of Google answers. The ratio between Yes and No is even clearly reversed. In June, Google brought a positive response in 57% of cases. The proportion of Yes declined almost continuously falling to 29% in October.

Clearly seven applications for delisting sent to Google in ten (54% on cases of breaches of privacy) lead a refusal on the part of the engine – which is not required to justify his decision
