June 4 (Reuters) - Google's chief privacy

officer, Keith Enright, will leave the company this fall, after

13 years at the tech giant, a spokesperson for the

Alphabet-owned company said on Tuesday.

"We regularly evolve our legal, regulatory and compliance

efforts to meet new obligations and expectations. Our latest

changes will increase the number of people working on regulatory

compliance across the company," the spokesperson said.

Enright was named Google's privacy chief in September 2018,

at a time when the company faced heavy government scrutiny over

privacy issues.

Enright's departure is part of a broader reorganization

within the privacy teams, with the company attempting to shift

privacy policy to various individual product management teams,

according to the company.

"After over 13 years at Google, I'm ready for a change, and

will be moving on this fall, taking all that I've learned and

trying something new," Enright wrote in a post on LinkedIn.
