Users of our study are registered in 2013 in the two most visited Internet services in Spain: Google and Facebook. However, by registering, they accept without reading the Privacy Policy for different reasons. Research collects and reflects the reasons given by respondents; considers the recommendations of experts on usability; and analyzes the visual architecture and linguistic formulation of these digital documents, in order to verify that Google and Facebook provide access to these documents, or if the most common uses and forms of access should be revised and / or improved.
