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:

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!
