We relinquish to use any Google Service on our Website, for your PRIVACY.
This Website does not use Google Services, this prevents Google from monitoring your every move on this website! The services in question would be: AdSenes, Gmail, Google Analytics, Google Video, Youtube.
Every one knows Google, and almost everyone appreciates that google seams to find all the websites we are looking for. But what almost no one knows is that Google is a Data-Miner, even if it is quite obvious!
Every search engine is a Data-Miner, they have to be, to index every website. So far we do not disagree with Google, we appreciate its service.
But Google does not stop at mining Obvious and public website data
Google can mine data that intrude upon your privacy!
We will give you now a few examples how Google can violate your privacy, these are proven facts, so you should seriously consider to reduce Googles data mining by using alternatives.
- Google links all your Google accounts together and creates one Identity for you. All data that is related to you will be archived and searched (automated keyword search), even after you have deleted your account on Google.
- Using Google Chrome & Google Toolbar allows Google to identify your Computer, and there it doesn't matter if you delete the cookies or use a proxy server. Chrome is installed on your PC and can access your computer MAC-ADDRESS and other data that makes your PC 100% identifiable.
- Gmail, you incoming and outgoing E-Mails get scanned for Keywords and archived, and then connected to your identity if possible. This includes E-Mail Text, Files and Pictures of anyone sending you a E-Mail!!! You could argue that Gmail has a excellent spam-filter and that alone is a reason to use it. But then you would have to consider that a great percentage of spam-mails originate from Gmail accounts, which means Google knows the contents of spam-mails and can filter them out, naturally!
- Google Analytics, creates a detailed profile of Visitors and can link the Visitors to a their Google Identity and there for make a very accurate recording of the Visitors internet activity, over days, weeks, months and even years.
- Google AdSense, a widely used Advertising Service. It is every Websmasters dream, to make money by not doing anything... ...except betray the privacy of their Visitors. Which is in this case exactly what AdSense in combination with the other Google Services is capable of doing.
- Youtube, every video you watch tells Google about your preferences. Even in-cooperating videos on your website allows Google to track your Visitors on your website, limited, but still Google tracks you.
- Google Maps, in-cooperating it on your website allows Google to track your Visitors on your website. But it could also revival more, like the next Bar, Restaurant or Shop you are going to visit.
We know the list is not complete, there are more Services that intrude upon your Privacy. But we consider the services listed above to be the most violating. Not because of the amount of data they collect and not because they link it all to your Identity.
No, but because these services are available at ~80% of the Websites a regular User would visit in a month. So Google can literally track your every move, except on this and a few other Websites that are not tottaly depending on Google services.
For everyone using a Mobile-Phone, here is something you should know about Google Android:

- If you take a Photo it can store the Coordinates at which you made the Photo, there for the time and place where you where are logged.
- It can locate you via Satellite and protocol the data.
- Backdoor- and Keylogging-Software is pre-installed and active on most of the Smartphones, possible logging all user actions and allowing automated Updates and Maintenance on the Smartphone without your permission.
