"Some versions of Chrome feature Safe Browsing technology that can identify potentially harmful sites and executable file downloads not already known by Google. Information regarding a potentially harmful site or executable file download (including the full URL of the site or executable file download) may be sent to Google to help determine whether the site or download is harmful. Google does not collect any account information or other personally identifying information as part of this contact, but does receive standard log information, including an IP address, URL visited and one or more cookies."
It's a bit confusing for me, it looks like they are collecting visited urls as they are not considered personal identifying information.
I've just learned that with the spellcheck feature they are basically receiving all the text I write on the Internet to their servers.
By the way are we really discussing about the privacy policy of a company that sent its data to NSA? I'm not condemning them, still we should be aware of this and never forget.
