Our pages use functions of Google +1. This service is provided by Google Inc. 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.

Collection and dissemination of information: The Google +1 button allows you to publish information globally. Using the Google +1 button, you and others receive personalised content from Google and our partners. Google stores both the information that you gave a +1 for a content and information about the page you viewed when you clicked +1. Your +1 can be displayed as information along with your profile name and photo in Google services, such as in search results or your Google Profile, or in other locations on websites and ads on the web. Google records information about your +1 activity to improve Google's services to you and others. In order to use the Google +1 button, you need a public Google profile that is visible globally and which must contain at least the name chosen for the profile. This name is used in all Google services. In some cases, this name may also replace another name you have used when sharing content via your Google account. The identity of your Google profile may be displayed to users who know your email address or have other identifying information about you.

Use of the information collected: In addition to the intended purposes explained above, the information you provide is used in accordance with the applicable Google Privacy Policy. Google may publish aggregated statistics about users' +1 activities and share these statistics with users and partners, such as publishers, advertisers, or affiliated websites.
