Data privacy statement for the use of Google+

Our pages use features of Google+. The provider of these features is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. By using the Google+ button you can publish information worldwide. With the Google+ button you and other users receive personalised content from Google and our partners. Google stores both the fact that you have clicked on a Google+ button and information about the page you viewed when you clicked on the Google+ button. Your Google+ activities can be displayed, together with your profile name and your photo, as indicative information in other Google Services – e.g. search results, your Google profile or elsewhere on websites and advertisements on the Internet.

Google collects information about your Google+ activities in order to improve Google’s services for you and others. In order to use the Google+ button, you must have a globally visible and public Google profile which contains at least the name chosen for the profile. This name is used in all Google services. In some cases, this name may also substitute any other name you may have used whilst sharing content via your Google account. The identity of your Google profile can be shown to users who know your e-mail address or other identifying information about you. In addition to the uses described above, the information you provide will be used in accordance with the valid Google Privacy Policy. Google may release summarised statistics on the activities of Google+ users and forward these to users and partners, such as publishers, advertisers or connected websites.
