Clarifiation of privacy policy when using Google Loader (with or without api key) #615

In theory the visitors to any site that uses a library loaded from 
ajax.googleapis.com via the Google Loader with an API key or directly via 
referencing the .js in a <script> tag can tracked / counted.

I would imagine that Google are going to calculate aggregate metrics for the 
use of this content, but I could use some transparency in exactly what's 
happening.

Reading 
http://www.google.co.uk/intl/en/about/corporate/company/privacy_principles.html 
indicates that some form of disclosure is desirable - even if it's of the form 
of 'we don't track anything at all, not even in aggregate'.
