Last modified: (削除) December 18, 2017 (削除ここまで) (追記) May 25, 2018 (追記ここまで) (view archived versions)

(削除) There are many different ways you can use our services – to search for and share information, to communicate with other people or to create new content. When you share information with us, for example by creating a Google Account, we can make those services even better – to show you more relevant search results and ads, to help you connect with people or to make sharing with others quicker and easier. As you use our services, we want you to be clear how we’re using information and the ways in which you can protect your privacy. (削除ここまで)

(削除) Our Privacy Policy explains: (削除ここまで)

  • (削除) What information we collect and why we collect it. (削除ここまで)
  • (削除) How we use that information. (削除ここまで)
  • (削除) The choices we offer, including how to access and update information. (削除ここまで)

(削除) We’ve tried to keep it as simple as possible, but if you’re not familiar with terms like cookies, IP addresses, pixel tags and browsers, then read about these key terms first. Your privacy matters to Google so whether you are new to Google or a long-time user, please do take the time to get to know our practices – and if you have any questions contact us. (削除ここまで)

(追記) When you use our services, you’re trusting us with your information. We understand this is a big responsibility and work hard to protect your information and put you in control. (追記ここまで)

(追記) This Privacy Policy is meant to help you understand what information we collect, why we collect it, and how you can update, manage, export, and delete your information. (追記ここまで)

(追記) We build a range of services that help millions of people daily to explore and interact with the world in new ways. Our services include: (追記ここまで)

  • (追記) Google apps, sites, and devices, like Search, YouTube, and Google Home (追記ここまで)
  • (追記) Platforms like the Chrome browser and Android operating system (追記ここまで)
  • (追記) Products that are integrated into third-party apps and sites, like ads and embedded Google Maps (追記ここまで)

(追記) You can use our services in a variety of ways to manage your privacy. For example, you can sign up for a Google Account if you want to create and manage content like emails and photos, or see more relevant search results. And you can use many Google services when you’re signed out or without creating an account at all, like searching on Google or watching YouTube videos. You can also choose to browse the web privately using Chrome in Incognito mode. And across our services, you can adjust your privacy settings to control what we collect and how your information is used. (追記ここまで)

(追記) To help explain things as clearly as possible, we’ve added examples, explanatory videos, and definitions for key terms. And if you have any questions about this Privacy Policy, you can contact us. (追記ここまで)

(削除) Information we collect (削除ここまで) (追記) Information Google collects (追記ここまで)

(削除) We collect information in the following ways: (削除ここまで)

(追記) Things you create or provide to us (追記ここまで)

(削除) Information you give us. For example, many of our services require you to sign up for a Google Account. When you do, we’ll ask for personal information, like your name, email address, telephone number or credit card to store with your account. If you want to take full advantage of the sharing features we offer, we might also ask you to create a publicly visible Google Profile, which may include your name and photo. (削除ここまで)

(追記) When you create a Google Account, you provide us with personal information that includes your name and a password. You can also choose to add a phone number or payment information to your account.

We also use these technologies to collect and store information when you interact with services we offer to our partners, such as advertising services or Google features that may appear on other sites. Our Google Analytics product helps businesses and site owners analyze the traffic to their websites and apps. When used in conjunction with our advertising services, such as those using the DoubleClick cookie, Google Analytics information is linked, by the Google Analytics customer or by Google, using Google technology, with information about visits to multiple sites. (削除ここまで)

(削除) Information we collect when you are signed in to Google, in addition to information we obtain about you from partners, may be associated with your Google Account.

(追記ここまで)

(追記) We collect this information when a Google service on your device contacts our servers — for example, when you install an app from the Play Store or when a service checks for automatic updates.

(追記ここまで)

(追記) In some circumstances, Google also collects information about you from publicly accessible sources. For example, if your name appears in your local newspaper, Google’s Search engine may index that article and display it to other people if they search for your name. We may also collect information about you from trusted partners, including marketing partners who provide us with information about potential customers of our business services, and security partners who provide us with information to protect against abuse.

(削除) How we use information we collect (削除ここまで) (追記) We use data to build better services (追記ここまで)

(削除) We use the information we collect from all of our services to provide, maintain, protect and improve them, to develop new ones, and to protect Google and our users. We also use this information to offer you tailored content – like giving you more relevant search results and ads. (削除ここまで)

(削除) We may use the name you provide for your Google Profile across all of the services we offer that require a Google Account. In addition, we may replace past names associated with your Google Account so that you are represented consistently across all our services. If other users already have your email, or other information that identifies you, we may show them your publicly visible Google Profile information, such as your name and photo. (削除ここまで)

(削除) If you have a Google Account, we may display your Profile name, Profile photo, and actions you take on Google or on third-party applications connected to your Google Account (such as +1’s, reviews you write and comments you post) in our services, including displaying in ads and other commercial contexts. We will respect the choices you make to limit sharing or visibility settings in your Google Account. (削除ここまで)

(削除) When you contact Google, we keep a record of your communication to help solve any issues you might be facing. We may use your email address to inform you about our services, such as letting you know about upcoming changes or improvements. (削除ここまで)

(削除) We use information collected from cookies and other technologies, like pixel tags, to improve your user experience and the overall quality of our services. One of the products we use to do this on our own services is Google Analytics. For example, by saving your language preferences, we’ll be able to have our services appear in the language you prefer. When showing you tailored ads, we will not associate an identifier from cookies or similar technologies with sensitive categories, such as those based on race, religion, sexual orientation or health. (削除ここまで)

(削除) Our automated systems analyze your content (including emails) to provide you personally relevant product features, such as customized search results, tailored advertising, and spam and malware detection. (削除ここまで)

(削除) We may combine personal information from one service with information, including personal information, from other Google services – for example to make it easier to share things with people you know. Depending on your account settings, your activity on other sites and apps may be associated with your personal information in order to improve Google’s services and the ads delivered by Google. (削除ここまで)

(削除) We will ask for your consent before using information for a purpose other than those that are set out in this Privacy Policy. (削除ここまで)

(削除) Google processes personal information on our servers in many countries around the world. We may process your personal information on a server located outside the country where you live. (削除ここまで)

(追記) We use the information we collect from all our services for the following purposes: (追記ここまで)

(追記) Provide our services (追記ここまで)

(追記) We use your information to deliver our services, like processing the terms you search for in order to return results or helping you share content by suggesting recipients from your contacts. (追記ここまで)

(追記) Maintain & improve our services (追記ここまで)

(追記) We also use your information to ensure our services are working as intended, such as tracking outages or troubleshooting issues that you report to us. And we use your information to make improvements to our services — for example, understanding which search terms are most frequently misspelled helps us improve spell-check features used across our services. (追記ここまで)

(追記) Develop new services (追記ここまで)

(追記) We use the information we collect in existing services to help us develop new ones. For example, understanding how people organized their photos in Picasa, Google’s first photos app, helped us design and launch Google Photos. (追記ここまで)

(追記) Provide personalized services, including content and ads (追記ここまで)

(追記) We use the information we collect to customize our services for you, including providing recommendations, personalized content, and customized search results. For example, Security Checkup provides security tips adapted to how you use Google products. And Google Play uses information like apps you’ve already installed and videos you’ve watched on YouTube to suggest new apps you might like. (追記ここまで)

(追記) Depending on your settings, we may also show you personalized ads based on your interests. For example, if you search for "mountain bikes," you may see an ad for sports equipment when you’re browsing a site that shows ads served by Google. You can control what information we use to show you ads by visiting your ad settings. (追記ここまで)

  • (追記) We don’t show you personalized ads based on sensitive categories, such as race, religion, sexual orientation, or health. (追記ここまで)
  • (追記) We don’t share information that personally identifies you with advertisers, such as your name or email, unless you ask us to. For example, if you see an ad for a nearby flower shop and select the "tap to call" button, we’ll connect your call and may share your phone number with the flower shop. (追記ここまで)

(追記) Go to Ad Settings (追記ここまで)

(追記) Measure performance (追記ここまで)

(追記) We use data for analytics and measurement to understand how our services are used. For example, we analyze data about your visits to our sites to do things like optimize product design. And we also use data about the ads you interact with to help advertisers understand the performance of their ad campaigns. We use a variety of tools to do this, including Google Analytics. When you visit sites that use Google Analytics, Google and a Google Analytics customer may link information about your activity from that site with activity from other sites that use our ad services. (追記ここまで)

(追記) Communicate with you (追記ここまで)

(追記) We use information we collect, like your email address, to interact with you directly. For example, we may send you a notification if we detect suspicious activity, like an attempt to sign in to your Google Account from an unusual location. Or we may let you know about upcoming changes or improvements to our services. And if you contact Google, we’ll keep a record of your request in order to help solve any issues you might be facing. (追記ここまで)

(追記) Protect Google, our users, and the public (追記ここまで)

(追記) We use information to help improve the safety and reliability of our services. This includes detecting, preventing, and responding to fraud, abuse, security risks, and technical issues that could harm Google, our users, or the public. (追記ここまで)

(追記) We use different technologies to process your information for these purposes. We use automated systems that analyze your content to provide you with things like customized search results, personalized ads, or other features tailored to how you use our services. And we analyze your content to help us detect abuse such as spam, malware, and illegal content. We also use algorithms to recognize patterns in data. For example, Google Translate helps people communicate across languages by detecting common language patterns in phrases you ask it to translate. (追記ここまで)

(追記) We may combine the information we collect among our services and across your devices for the purposes described above. For example, if you watch videos of guitar players on YouTube, you might see an ad for guitar lessons on a site that uses our ad products. Depending on your account settings, your activity on other sites and apps may be associated with your personal information in order to improve Google’s services and the ads delivered by Google. (追記ここまで)

(追記) If other users already have your email address or other information that identifies you, we may show them your publicly visible Google Account information, such as your name and photo. This helps people identify an email coming from you, for example. (追記ここまで)

(追記) We’ll ask for your consent before using your information for a purpose that isn’t covered in this Privacy Policy. (追記ここまで)

(削除) Transparency and choice (削除ここまで)

(削除) People have different privacy concerns. Our goal is to be clear about what information we collect, so that you can make meaningful choices about how it is used. For example, you can: (削除ここまで)
