Google Buzz Privacy Policy
9 February 2010
The Google Privacy Policy describes how we treat personal information when you use Google's products and services, including information provided when you use Google Buzz. In addition, the following describes our additional privacy practices specific to Google Buzz.
Personal Information
In order to post in Buzz or to comment on or "like" other people's posts, you need to have a public Google profile which should as a minimum includes your first and last name.
When you first enter Google Buzz, to make the start-up experience easier, we may automatically select people for you to follow based on the people who you email and chat with most. Similarly, we may also suggest to others that they automatically follow you. You can review and edit the list of people you follow and block people from following you.
Your name, photo and the list of people you follow and people following you will be displayed on your Google profile, which is publicly searchable on the Web. You may opt out of displaying the list of people following you and who you're following on your profile.
If you are following someone who publicly displays their list of followers on their Google profile, then your Google profile name will appear on that person's public list. Likewise, if someone is following you and displays the list of people they follow on their profile, then you will appear on that public list.
READ THE WHOLE (LONG) DOCUMENT - you will probably want to stay well clear when you see what it says.
