What happened

The French DPA (CNIL) ordered Clearview AI, a company conducting facial recognition on public web sources, to stop unlawfully collecting and processing the personal data of data subjects on the French territory, delete all such personal data collected previously, and set up clearer and more efficient procedures that enable the enforcement of the right of access and right to be forgotten.
