PARIS, Sept. 3 (Xinhua) -- France's data protection authority on Wednesday fined Google for failing to comply with regulations on online trackers.
The CNIL announced it was imposing a fine of 325 million euros (378.9 million U.S. dollars) on the U.S. tech giant, according to a statement on its website.
