Google does not have access to clear data here, but automatically encrypts the information in the customer files during the transmission process using a special algorithm. The encrypted information can then only be used by Google to assign it to existing Google accounts that the data subject has set up. This enables personalized advertising to be played out via all Google services linked to the respective Google account.
