just my thoughts:

do you think this is a big problem? why does some top fortune 500 companies 
uses this solution?
even banks in the US uses this (on of our client in the US uses this and one of 
the top fortune 500) and
we use google apps on our infrastructure, so far its good in our business. :)

cheers,

janskey

I think it's important we understand how Google runs their business - 

TOS of Google Apps includes a link to Google's Privacy Policy, which I
believe is shared among all of Google's hosted services (Enterprise or
otherwise [with the exception of Google Search Appliance, I believe]) - 

http://www.google.com/privacypolicy.html

So - the important paragraphs to read are these -

==
Google only processes personal information for the purposes described in
this Privacy Policy and/or the supplementary privacy notices for
specific services. In addition to the above, such purposes include: 

      * Providing our services to users, including the display of
        customized content and advertising; 
      * Auditing, research and analysis in order to maintain, protect
        and improve our services; 
      * Ensuring the technical functioning of our network; and 
      * Developing new services. 

You can find more information about how we process personal information
by referring to the supplementary privacy notices for particular
services.

Google processes personal information on our servers in the United
States of America and in other countries. In some cases, we process
personal information on a server outside your own country. We may
process personal information to provide our own services. In some cases,
we may process personal information on behalf of and according to the
instructions of a third party, such as our advertising partners.
==

It is important that you first understand Google's Privacy Policy works
and if your business can handle a privacy policy with such a wide
latitude, before deciding if your business should use Google Apps.
