Once I took look at the original passages used, it's clear what went wrong. The "Cantonese" passage is neither in colloquial Cantonese, nor in proper modern standard Chinese. It just reads like a poorly machine translated jumble of characters.
Traditional Chinese:

"Cantonese":

Here are a few problems that immediately jumps out just from an initial reading:
* The Cantonese version uses "us"/"our services" instead of fully spelling out "Google"
* Cantonese speakers don't usually use 您 as it is pronounced the same as 你
* "Data" is usually 資料 and not 資訊; similarly for 了解/瞭解 and a few others
* Finally, the grammar and particles/conjunctions used would be totally different if colloquial Cantonese really is desired.
