Get wise with Google


Google updated its privacy policy worldwide on May 25, following the introduction of new European Union data protection regulations. Google privacy settings apply to anyone using an account that gives access to programmes such as Gmail, docs and maps. The company collects data from users’ devices, apps, locations and activity, and a certain amount of this can be controlled through privacy management settings. Google users are advised to check what information Google can collect from their account and update their privacy settings at privacy.google.com/take-control.html
