Learn more about our updated Terms of Service

kumar91.internet@blogger.com

Every couple of years, we update our Terms of Service. We wanted to let you know ahead of time that the next update will be on July 30, 2026.

These changes won’t affect the way you use our services, but they should help make it easier for you to understand what to expect from Google — and what we expect from you — as you use our services.

You can review the new terms here. If you’re based in the European Economic Area (EEA) or Switzerland, we’ve also provided a summary of the key changes to the EEA version of our terms.

At a glance, here’s what this update means for you:

In general:
- We added a section to help you better understand why our services may access the internet when not actively engaged, to encourage you to check your Internet service plan and your device and network settings, as each of those may affect your costs.
- We updated and clarified our Settling disputes, governing law, and courts section.
- We make it clearer how various sections in our terms relate to each other.
If you’re based in the EEA:
- In addition to the changes in the In general section, we updated various sections to reflect the latest EEA laws and regulations that apply to our services, including:
  - Google’s obligation to make legally-required updates to our digital content, services, and goods.
  - A new, online “withdrawal button” in the EEA instructions on withdrawal section.
- We also removed the Handling requests for your data section, because we’re centralizing our data disclosure language on our main data disclosure policy page.
If you’re based outside the EEA:
- In addition to the changes in the In general section, we added new disclosures and disclaimers, including ones about AI outputs.
- If you’re based in India, we also added new reporting language about our obligations if you violate applicable law.

If you’re a parent or guardian, and you allow your child to use the services, please review the updates to our terms with your child and help them decide whether they need to make any changes to their account. Please remember that these terms apply to you and you’re responsible for your child’s activity on the services.

If you don’t agree to the new terms, you should remove your content and stop using the services. You can also end your relationship with us at any time, without penalty, by closing your Google Account.

Thank you for using Google services!

You have received this email to update you about important changes to Google’s Terms of Service.
