Some days 
ago, the Internet giant Google has been sending its user some e-mails 
announcing a change in its privacy policies from March 1.  
With 
this move Google intends to unify all its services in one aiming to 
increase the “user experience” and improve its services. 
It 
consists of a removal of the legal restrictions that had prevented the 
company from crossing users’ data between its services. Thus, we will 
find suggestions in Youtube related to the last e-mails we received, for
 example. Whenever we login in Google, we will get recommendations of 
search results according to the interests expressed in Google Plus, 
Gmail or YouTube.
The company explained that with this change 
they will be able to offer their users the most relevant results on 
search and information, apart from helping advertisers to find clients, 
mostly in mobile phones.
People from Google had explained that, 
in spite of the cross link among different platforms; they will continue
 their policy of not combining personal information of users gathered by
 DoubleClick, their advertising network.
Even so, critics related
 to the measure had massively aroused, since its impact and the amount 
of information handled by the company remains unknown.
From 
March, 1st each registered user will receive a notification to accept or
 decline the changes in the privacy policy. Even though you don`t accept
 Google’s privacy policies you will be able to continue using the search
 engine but your search experience won’t be the same.
