SACRAMENTO — California will receive $1 million as its share of a $17 million multistate payment from Google Inc. to settle complaints that the Mountain View search engine improperly tracked users of Apple Safari web browsers over two years.

Google admitted to no wrongdoing in the 11-page agreement. But state attorneys general said that between June 1, 2011 and Feb. 15, 2012 Google quietly altered its advertising platform to circumvent a Safari default setting that blocks third-party cookies.
