Google has announced a new setting that allows users to control whether data in Gmail, Meet and Chat can be used to view suggestions across its product line.
Calls the function "Smart" features.
“Think: tabbed inbox, Smart Compose and Smart Reply in Gmail, reminders for when to pay your Google bills Assistant and restaurant reservations on Google Maps, ”says one Publication written by Maalika Manoharan's product manager.
While the ability to enable certain features isn't new, Google is now incorporating them into a more user-friendly mode, saying it gives clearer options for processing data that makes them possible.
“This new arrangement is designed to enhance understanding and management αυτής της διαδικασίας, λαμβάνοντας υπόψη ό, τι έχουμε μάθει από έρευνα στην εμπειρία του χρήστη και τις ρυθμιστικές αρχές να δίνουμε κατανοητές, ενεργές επιλογές χρηστών σε functions related to data" says the company.
Google also states that the user is in control of their data and that the smart features that are displayed are the result of automated algorithms and not a manual revision.
"And the advertisements Google does not rely on your personal data from Gmail, regardless of the choice you make."
"If you decide not to use smart features and personalization, you will still be able to use Gmail and our other products. And if you later decide that these features are useful and want to enable them, you can do so through Gmail settings. ”
