French regulator, Commission Nationale de L'informatique et Des Libertes (CNIL) has said that Google's plans to unify its privacy policy might make it in violation of European Union's data protection laws.

The Internet giant is planning to unify 60 different privacy policies on several products beginning from 1, 2012. The European officials have asked the company to hold its plans to allow the authorities to analyze the proposed changes before they are implemented.

CNIL said that the plans raise concerns that the policy might not meet the needs of the European Data Protection Directive. The European Commission has recently presented plans for data protection rules for the whole of the European region.

An advisory body called, the Article 29 Working Party had asked CNIL to look into the Google's new policy after raising concerns over the changes this month. The Article 29 Working Party includes representatives from all EU data protection authorities.

"The CNIL and the EU data protection authorities regret that Google did not accept to delay the application of this new policy which raises legitimate concerns about the protection of the personal data of European citizens," the country's regulator said.

CNIL also said that it is concerned over the combination of data across services and will continue to investigate the matter with the with Google's representatives.
