Just so you're aware, safegov appears to be a Microsoft astrotufing site: http://readwrite.com/2013/01/03/googles-ftc-settlement-is-an-epic-fail-for-microsoft http://readwrite.com/2013/01/03/googles-ftc-settlement-is-an... though you can pretty much tell if you just look at their list of articles. In any case, the article is wrong, on a number of fronts, actually. e.g. the DoubleClick and Google account cookies are never mixed (Google agreed to this in the wake of concerns over the merger, and it's called out explicitly in the Google privacy policy), the statement on Enterprise privacy policies and that testimony about the University of Hawaii don't contradict each other at all, and it's ridiculous to base a whole article on an entry on the University of Alaska's email FAQ. The entry is wrong anyway. Check out the "Data Processing Amendment"[1] that comes with Enterprise/Education accounts, which prohibits processing data in ways that aren't explicitly enumerated in that document. Advertising profiling is not included. [1] https://www.google.com/intx/en/enterprise/apps/terms/dpa_terms.html https://www.google.com/intx/en/enterprise/apps/terms/dpa_ter...
