Google will be taking its new Terms of Service into effect on November 11, 2013.
We are updating the Google Terms of Service. The new Terms will go live on November 11, 2013 and you can read them here.
Because many of you are allergic to legalese, here’s a plain English summary for your convenience.
We’ve made three changes:
- First, clarifying how your Profile name and photo might appear in Google products (including in reviews, advertising and other commercial contexts).
- You can control whether your image and name appear in ads via the Shared Endorsements setting.
- Second, a reminder to use your mobile devices safely.
- Third, details on the importance of keeping your password confidential.
To opt-out of the “Shared Endorsement“, Google+ users need to lbe logged in and uncheck the box for “Based upon my activity, Google may show my name and profile photo in shared endorsements that appear in ads.”
