COMMENT: Here I get somewhat confused; the first sentence suggests that the site/app can keep your information if you've already given it permission, or if you have used it multiple times without withholding permission. Okay. Then the second sentence says they're required to delete that information if you ask. So, I suppose that means turning off personalization is NOT deleting the information which has already been given out. Deletion only happens when the site/app is expressly asked to delete your personal information. It seems you do this through Facebook, but how is anyone's guess. -- tosdr.org | twitter.com/tosdr | github.com/tosdr --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Terms of Service; Didn't Read" group.
