Google making changes to Privacy Policy
From the 1 March 2012, Google has announced to make modifications to its privacy policy.
We’re getting rid of over 60 different privacy policies across Google and replacing them with one that’s a lot shorter and easier to read.
The new Google privacy policy.
What everyone has to say about it.

Our take on this one
The privacy policy says clearly has clauses like
We require opt-in consent for the sharing of any sensitive personal information.
We may share aggregated, non-personally identifiable information publicly and with our partners
Which are fine, and we do not think there should be any problem with them. As a search marketing company we need those data to take critical decisions to help our customers. Google has helped companies like us and the public at large those who use Google Products tremendously by reducing the number of privacy policy documents.
