are words in my gmail used by Google?

Is any of 'words' appears in my Gmail messages used for
Adwords
or related services?  I know that Google does not use its
'contents,'
but it does not mean they can use 'words' in the email....

The words in your e-mails are used to determine what ads you
receive
while reading your mail, and for spam detection only.

Does that mean that those words in emails are also shared
with third
parties via its ad program?

No, it doesn't mean that at all. They only use the words to
decide
which of the ads to show.

No... search the Google help pages for how Adwords work...
it's the
same software.

But adwords also has collection of ´keywords´ that are
collected from
search queries.
I thought Gmail collect ´keywords´ or ´frequently used
words´ in Gmail
text to show more relevant advertisement... Their language
in privacy
policy is very vague in this.

I was talking about slightly different issues.  For example,
Google
may be able to take statistics on which words or phrase
appear in text
in Gmail more frequently.  Or which words tend to be
associated with
other words, etc.  Email contents is a goldmine of such
informations.
Then Google can sell such information and analytics to other
companies
or use it themselves.

It seems that Google's privacy policy of Gmail is not
exclusing the
possibility of Google using 'words and phrases' (not content
as a
whole) used in email text be used for their market analysis
and
others.  Do I understand it correctly?

For questions regarding legal interpretations of policies
and
contracts, you should consult a lawyer.  This is only a
user's group.

That said... I read the following line from a help page:
"no email
content or other personally identifiable information is ever
provided
to advertisers" As well as this help page:
https://mail.google.com/s
upport/bin/answer.py?answer=6600&topic=8264&security
=1
Which contains this line "Your personal information
will not be sold
or given to any third party, including advertisers and/or
business
partners", and I put together that your scenarios is
wrong.  Even
individual words in my e-mails are still part of email
content, and is
personal information.

Also, I mispoke.  I mean AdSense, not AdWords... two
completely
different programs with different policies/programs.

But the help page also says `aggregate information may be
provided to
advertisers´.
That may mean that they are taking statistics on words that
shows up
on Gmail contents and provide them to advertisers?
