Google links to Privacy Policy page from homepage
Search engine giant Google has made a change on their homepage and it is big news.
The new addition on the Google homepage is a link to their privacy policy.
The company was under pressure from several privacy groups to add this link on the homepage of the site.
This is required by law in some regions of USA.
Google has made the change by adding a Privacy link in the footer linking to their privacy information pages.
Incidentally, this word replaces Google after the Copyright sign which leave the amount of content on the page same.
Apparently, the company wanted to keep the size of the homepage same as before.
Google Vice President of Search Products and User Experience Marissa Mayer spoke about this change: “Larry and Sergey told me we could only add this to the homepage if we took a word away — keeping the ‘weight’ of the homepage unchanged at 28.”
