The German state of Bavaria and other European authorities said this week they have launched data privacy investigations of the Connect IQ mobile phone software.
Thomas Kranig, chief of the Bavarian State Office for Data Protection in southern Germany, said Tuesday he has sent a letter of inquiry to the Munich offices of Apple Computer seeking information about the tracking tool, Deutsche Welle reported.
"I've only asked if they use it, and if so, how they use it, and nothing else," Kranig told the German broadcaster.
