Found this on fb. I know Google tracks everything, I know because every time I look at something on a web site, the item I looked at miraculously shows up on the side bar of my fb page.
I've been reading on the BBC about privacy. I've just switched from google to Ixquick.Every time you use a regular search engine, your search data is recorded. Major search engines capture your IP address and use tracking cookies to make a record of your search terms, the time of your visit, and the links you choose - then they store that information in a giant database.
Those searches reveal a shocking amount of personal information about you, such as your interests, family circumstances, political leanings, medical conditions, and more. This information is modern-day gold for marketers, government officials, black-hat hackers and criminals - all of whom would love to get their hands on your private search data.
