- Google Privacy & Messaging records applicable consent and privacy choices.
We may disclose information when required to protect users, enforce our terms, respond to lawful requests, or support a business reorganization. We do not sell account credentials or private community content.
Cookies, consent and advertising
Essential storage supports security, sessions and preferences. Analytics and advertising storage is controlled by applicable consent choices. See our Cookie Policy for details.
Retention and security
We retain information for as long as needed to provide the service, maintain security and integrity, resolve disputes, meet applicable requirements, and preserve legitimate public community records. Retention varies by record type. We use reasonable technical and organizational safeguards, but no internet service can guarantee absolute security.
