Google's new privacy policy takes effect
Google's new privacy policy takes effect despite concerns.
The changes mean Google will now save data and searches from users' accounts -- such as Google.com, Gmail, and YouTube -- in one place.
"As we understand it, the policy changes do not mean that Google is collecting more information about its users than it currently does. They do, however, mean that you are going to be using the information in new ways - ways that may make some users uncomfortable," Canada's privacy commissioner Jennifer Stoddart wrote.
The commissioner strongly recommends Google make the options for users to change their privacy preferences more clear. She also said it wasn't explained how long it will take personal information to be deleted when requested by a subscriber.
Users can't completely opt out of the new policy if they want to continue using Google services.
The tussle over data privacy comes at a delicate time for Google, whose business model is based on giving away free search, e-mail, and other services while making money by selling user-targeted advertising.
