What Does Updating a Terms of Service Mean? Updating terms of service allows websites to ensure the agreement they hold users to is up to date with new laws and regulations. Terms of service define how your product, service, or material may be utilized.

The Google logo and search service are made available for non-commercial use only. You may not use the Google search service to sell a product or service, or to increase traffic to your Web site for commercial reasons, such as advertising sales.

We may update these terms and service-specific additional terms (1) to reflect changes in our services or how we do business — for example, when we add new services, features, technologies, pricing, or benefits (or remove old ones), (2) for legal, regulatory, or security reasons, or (3) to prevent abuse or harm.

Google products reserve the right to delete your data when your account has not been used within that product for a 2-year period. December 1, 2023 is the earliest a Google Account will be deleted due to this policy.
