fact that you have +1’d a piece of content and information about the page you were viewing when you
clicked +1. Your +1 can be displayed together with your profile name and photo in Google services, for
example in search results or in your Google profile, or in other places on websites and advertisements on
the Internet.
Google records information about your +1 activities to improve Google services for
you and others. To use the Google + button, you need a globally visible, public Google profile that must
contain at least the name chosen for the profile. This name is used by all Google services. In some cases,
this name may also replace a different name that you have used to share content via your Google
account. The identity of your Google profile can be shown to users who know your email address or other
information that can identify you.
Use of collected data: In addition to the uses mentioned above,
the information you provide is used in accordance with the applicable Google data protection policies.
Google may publish summary statistics about users’ +1 activity or share it with users and partners, such
