EU Court of Justice orders Google to delete inaccurate information
Friday 9 December 2022 - 21:37

The highest court in Europe ruled on Thursday that Google must delete all information that users have demonstrated to be inaccurate.

The Court of Justice of the EU ruled that “where the person requesting dereferencing establishes that such information is obviously erroneous, the operator of a search engine shall dereference information discovered in the referred content.”

According to the court’s ruling, the publisher of the website does not need to be held legally liable for the material removal.

“The Court points out that the right to protection of personal data is not an absolute right but must be considered in relation to its function in society and be balanced against other fundamental rights, in accordance with the principle of proportionality,” it added.
