Privacy Policy for using Google +1
Collection and disclosure of information:
You can use the Google +1 button to publish information worldwide. You and other users receive personalized content from Google and our partners via the Google +1 button. Google stores both the information that you +1’d content and information about the page you were viewing when you clicked +1. Your +1 may appear as a notice along with your profile name and photo in Google services, such as in search results or in your Google profile, or elsewhere on websites and ads across the internet. Google records information about your +1 activities in order to improve Google services for you and others. In order to be able to use the Google +1 button, you need a globally visible, public Google profile that must contain at least the name chosen for the profile. This name is used in all Google services. In some cases, this name can also replace another name that you used when sharing content via your Google account. The identity of your Google profile can be shown to users who know your email address or have other identifying information about you.
Use of Information Collected
In addition to the purposes explained above, the information you provide will be used in accordance with the applicable Google data protection regulations. Google may publish aggregated statistics about users’ +1 activity or pass them on to users and partners, such as publishers, advertisers or affiliated websites.
