Google Translate link (of the irony):

https://translate.google.com/translate?hl=&sl=auto&tl=en&u=h...

And the full decision (in french, too) for anyone wanting to read 31 pages of scanned legalese (not too harsh, though): https://www.cnil.fr/sites/default/files/atoms/files/san-2019...

That translation is only marginally better than the automatic Google Translate translation.

The CNIL has a very constrained budget (since the need for them keep increasing, and their income doesn't), so spending money for an english translation is probably not very high on their list. I would not be surprised if it's one of their regular employee that just happened to speak english that do those.

For very low values of "speak english", of course - this is France after all. That translation is so peculiar, it reminds me of the Chinglish manuals we get with cheap manufactured products.
