The European Data Protection Supervisor (EDPS) has ordered Europol to erase personal data on individuals that haven’t been linked to criminal activity. The decision follows an own-initiative inquiry started on April 30, 2019, regarding the EU police body’s use of Big Data Analytics for personal data processing activities. EDPS has now imposed a 6-month retention period on the personal information collected by the police body, which means that Europol must erase all data not filtered within six months its databases.”]
