The UK's Information Commissioner Office (ICO) has ruled that Google did not grab "significant" personal details when it scooped up data from unsecured wi-fi networks.
The information was gathered when they were logging wi-fi spots to help with location based services.
The ICO said in a statement: "On the basis of the samples we saw, we are satisfied so far that it is unlikely that Google will have captured significant amounts of personal data."
It added: "There is also no evidence - as yet - that the data captured by Google has caused or could cause any individual detriment."
The ICO said it would closely monitor other global investigations. Which is probably wish considering Google is still under investigation in the UK, France, Spain, Germany, Australia and the US.
