This settlement ranks among the largest fines imposed on the company in the United States and comes as part of a broader wave of investigations by several states into the privacy practices and personal data collection by major tech firms.
Google has not yet issued an official statement regarding the details of the settlement or the nature of the data collected. However, a spokesperson for the Texas Attorney General's Office stated that the measures aim to protect user privacy and prevent similar violations in the future.
Major tech companies like Google are under increasing scrutiny by U.S. regulatory authorities, particularly regarding how they use data and target users with advertisements.
