Google will put an end to the pressure promoted by groups to defend the privacy of Internet users in providing a link to the terms of privacy on the cover of your service.

According to the website Digital Trends, the link was inserted in small print at the bottom of the page, next to the symbol of copyrights, replacing the word Google and preserving the clean structure of the main signature cover of the site.

Recently the company was being criticized for refusing to modify its cover to put a link to its privacy policy, a pattern of sites that use information in your user commercially. The company claimed that the terms could be found within the page "About Google" or even a quick search through the service.

The subject was more sensitive, since their reluctance to have the link on the front page could hurt the law to protect online privacy of California, established in 2003.

The company explained in his blog, which Larry and Sergey, founder of the service, would the word on the cover only if a floor was removed, keeping the counting of words "the cover down.

"Some users, bloggers and organizations asked us why we did not have a link and then to evaluate, we decided it was time to put it," explained the spokesman Steve Langdon to the blog of New York Times, adding that even easy to identify previously in this way is even easier to find the words.

We tried the link to find out if the terms were available only American on the cover, which seems to be true. In layers Brazilian, Portuguese, English and Chinese the service maintains the word Google, without any link to its privacy policy, which can only be found through the search or the page About Google (google.com.br / intl / en -BR/about.html).
