Google Terms of Service
Welcome
to Google!
Thanks for using our products and
services (“Services”). The Services are provided by Google Inc. (“Google”),
located at 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, United States.
By using our Services, you are
agreeing to these terms. Please read them carefully.
Our Services are very diverse, so
sometimes additional terms or product requirements (including age requirements)
may apply. Additional terms will be available with the relevant Services, and
those additional terms become part of your agreement with us if you use those
Services.
Using
our Services
You must follow any policies made
available to you within the Services.
Don’t misuse our Services. For
example, don’t interfere with our Services or try to access them using a method
other than the interface and the instructions that we provide. You may use our
Services only as permitted by law, including applicable export and re-export
control laws and regulations. We may suspend or stop providing our Services to
you if you do not comply with our terms or policies or if we are investigating
suspected misconduct.
Using our Services does not give you
ownership of any intellectual property rights in our Services or the content
you access. You may not use content from our Services unless you obtain
permission from its owner or are otherwise permitted by law. These terms do not
grant you the right to use any branding or logos used in our Services. Don’t
remove, obscure, or alter any legal notices displayed in or along with our
Services.
Our Services display some content
that is not Google’s. This content is the sole responsibility of the entity
that makes it available. We may review content to determine whether it is
illegal or violates our policies, and we may remove or refuse to display
content that we reasonably believe violates our policies or the law. But that does
not necessarily mean that we review content, so please don’t assume that we do.
In connection with your use of the
Services, we may send you service announcements, administrative messages, and
other information. You may opt out of some of those communications.
Some of our Services are available
on mobile devices. Do not use such Services in a way that distracts you and
prevents you from obeying traffic or safety laws.
Your
Google Account
You may need a Google Account in
order to use some of our Services. You may create your own Google Account, or
your Google Account may be assigned to you by an administrator, such as your
employer or educational institution. If you are using a Google Account assigned
to you by an administrator, different or additional terms may apply and your
administrator may be able to access or disable your account.
