These products are configured with these features turned off until you choose to turn them on, and we let you know the consequences of enabling such a feature before that feature is enabled.
  • If you choose to enable Google Pack to send usage statistics about your version of Google Pack, it will send non-personal information about which software is installed through Google Pack and how that software is used.

Uses
