But, online experts repeatedly warn us of flaws in Google’s privacy policy that we need to be cautious about. So, can’t we really trust Google?
Aplenty services, amazing services
Not only Google Search engine, other services of Google also play significant roles in our daily errands. We keep a tab on Google’s other services such as YouTube, Google Talk, Gmail, Google Chrome, Google Picasa, Google Maps, Google Earth, Google Flight Search, Google Reader etc. We are using these tools profusely in several personal, professional, social and other purposes. While using the search engine and other tools, we furnish information and data on all the platforms of Google in a day. But, we surely do not want Google to track our information or it to cascade our information to third parties. But, then why do we come across online ads optimized to our search process and data we furnish?
