Swedish operators may not engage in data storage – 99mac

the EU has previously objected to the Swedish directive on the general data storage of the Swedish operators. Today concludes the EU, however, that the way in which the Swedish operators store customers ‘ information on the contrary to the union’s laws.

now the EU is fixed to the data storage that Swedish operators engaged in is illegal, report our colleagues at This. In Sweden we have followed the directives say operators must keep information about their customers despite the fact that #the EUROPEAN union annulled the directive. This has led to many outraged voices, both among businesses and among consumers, among others, Tele2 has refused to store their customers ‘ data. Something that placed them in a legal dispute with the Swedish Post and telecom agency.

Today, the EU has decreed that the data storage that takes place in Sweden violates its laws and is therefore illegal. The data storage of the Swedish operators has been carried out on customers ‘ data, that is to say, by implementing a general data storage, where all customer information is saved for cases where it would be needed in the future, is according to the EU is only allowed to fight serious crime. In addition, operators only save what is necessary for that purpose and the parties concerned must be informed about what has happened.

Exactly how this judgment will affect the Swedish operators are currently unclear and the next step is to appeal to interpret the decision and then apply it on the Swedish law.
