Since the usage of internet and computers has increased and having very fast sharing and processing capacities it became necessary to provide the data kept in safe, accurate and true. In our country there isn’t any special regulation on data protection and it has only engaged in our constitution with an addition to the Article 20/2 which regulates the security of private life. On the other hand, today in every EU countries protection of personal data is guaranteed by law and the Directive 95/46/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council has entered into force on 13.12.1995. These countries and the non- EU countries which contacts with EU countries about data transportation have to rely on the Directive 95/46/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council and have to be a “Secure Country.” In 1998, “Google Inc.” has brought into life and become the most fast growing cooperation. According to the development period of Google Inc., Google is not only acting as a search machine. Google collects personal data by using services to access user’s data such as checking how many people clicks on what, profiling their consumption behaviors by matching identifiable IP addresses related to users. Therefore, Google has become the most criticized company about data protection. In addition, the International Privacy Organization defined Google as Privacy Opponent. Google is listed as the most and the only one unsecure company about the security of data in the International Privacy Organization’s list. In the respect of 1 March 2012 privacy policy of Google; Google combines the data of its users with other Google services and it is not predictable how, where, how much and for which purposes the obtained data is used for which services of Google. In other words, it is not clear that the data is collected for specified, explicit and legitimate purposes and not further processed in a way incompatible with those purposes. Google has received many warnings to change its privacy policy since it uses tools that cause unlimited data collection from European Union data protection authorities. The paper discusses that Google’s new privacy policy and its problems which is published on 1 March 2012 and compatibility with the principles on the Directive 95/46/EC of the European Parliament and Of the Council
