&lt;p&gt;We want you to understand the types of information we collect as you use our services&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We collect information to provide better services to all our users &amp;mdash; from figuring out basic stuff like which language you speak, to more complex things like which &lt;a class=&quot;g1mG8c&quot; href=&quot;https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en-US#footnote-useful-ads&quot;&gt;ads you&amp;rsquo;ll find most useful&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a class=&quot;g1mG8c&quot; href=&quot;https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en-US#footnote-people-online&quot;&gt;the people who matter most to you online&lt;/a&gt;, or which YouTube videos you might like. The information Google collects, and how that information is used, depends on how you use our services and how you manage your privacy controls.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;When you&amp;rsquo;re not signed in to a Google Account, we store the information we collect with &lt;a class=&quot;g1mG8c&quot; href=&quot;https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en-US#footnote-unique-id&quot;&gt;unique identifiers&lt;/a&gt; tied to the browser, application, or &lt;a class=&quot;g1mG8c&quot; href=&quot;https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en-US#footnote-device&quot;&gt;device&lt;/a&gt; you&amp;rsquo;re using. This helps us do things like maintain your language preferences across browsing sessions.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;When you&amp;rsquo;re signed in, we also collect information that we store with your Google Account, which we treat as &lt;a class=&quot;g1mG8c&quot; href=&quot;https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en-US#footnote-personal-info&quot;&gt;personal information&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Things you create or provide to us&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;div class=&quot;pjyxF&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;zZLvvc&quot; src=&quot;https://www.gstatic.com/policies/privacy/d1b68e2cd423aba52d74f02573df2d2d.svg&quot; /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;p&gt;When you create a Google Account, you provide us with &lt;a class=&quot;g1mG8c&quot; href=&quot;https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en-US#footnote-personal-info&quot;&gt;personal information&lt;/a&gt; that includes your name and a password. You can also choose to add a &lt;a class=&quot;g1mG8c&quot; href=&quot;https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en-US#footnote-phone-number&quot;&gt;phone number&lt;/a&gt; or &lt;a class=&quot;g1mG8c&quot; href=&quot;https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en-US#footnote-payment-info&quot;&gt;payment information&lt;/a&gt; to your account. Even if you aren&amp;rsquo;t signed in to a Google Account, you might choose to provide us with information &amp;mdash; like an email address to receive updates about our services.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We also collect the content you create, upload, or receive from others when using our services. This includes things like email you write and receive, photos and videos you save, docs and spreadsheets you create, and comments you make on YouTube videos.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Information we collect as you use our services&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;Your apps, browsers &amp;amp; devices&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;div class=&quot;pjyxF&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;zZLvvc&quot; src=&quot;https://www.gstatic.com/policies/privacy/e79ea0ed464fc8952d5b5582f9f9ae53.svg&quot; /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We collect information about the apps, browsers, and &lt;a class=&quot;g1mG8c&quot; href=&quot;https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en-US#footnote-devices&quot;&gt;devices&lt;/a&gt; you use to access Google services, which helps us provide features like automatic product updates and dimming your screen if your battery runs low.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The information we collect includes &lt;a class=&quot;g1mG8c&quot; href=&quot;https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en-US#footnote-unique-id&quot;&gt;unique identifiers&lt;/a&gt;, browser type and settings, device type and settings, operating system, mobile network information including carrier name and phone number, and application version number. We also collect information about the interaction of your apps, browsers, and devices with our services, including &lt;a class=&quot;g1mG8c&quot; href=&quot;https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en-US#footnote-ip&quot;&gt;IP address&lt;/a&gt;, crash reports, system activity, and the date, time, and &lt;a class=&quot;g1mG8c&quot; href=&quot;https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en-US#footnote-referrer-url&quot;&gt;referrer URL&lt;/a&gt; of your request.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We collect this information when a Google service on your device contacts our servers &amp;mdash; for example, when you install an app from the Play Store or when a service checks for automatic updates. If you&amp;rsquo;re using an &lt;a class=&quot;g1mG8c&quot; href=&quot;https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en-US#footnote-android-device&quot;&gt;Android device with Google apps&lt;/a&gt;, your device periodically contacts Google servers to provide information about your device and connection to our services. This information includes things like your device type, carrier name, crash reports, and which apps you&amp;#39;ve installed.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;Your activity&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;div class=&quot;pjyxF&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;zZLvvc&quot; src=&quot;https://www.gstatic.com/policies/privacy/39b031d352a2e1586cf50ac7f2bbc18b.svg&quot; /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If you use our &lt;a class=&quot;g1mG8c&quot; href=&quot;https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en-US#footnote-calls-messages&quot;&gt;services to make and receive calls or send and receive messages&lt;/a&gt;, we may collect telephony log information like your phone number, calling-party number, receiving-party number, forwarding numbers, time and date of calls and messages, duration of calls, routing information, and types of calls.&lt;/p&gt;
