ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

International data transfers mean your data may be subject to foreign surveillance laws — particularly US surveillance statutes — which is a live legal risk for EU and UK users following the Schrems II ruling.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

Google Cloud collects account, billing, usage, and support communication data from direct users, and processes this data for service delivery, security, and product improvement. Individuals who interact with third-party applications built on Google Cloud infrastructure may not be directly covered by this notice, as their data is governed by the deploying business's separate data processing agreement with Google, which limits what rights this notice confers on them. You can review and manage your personal data settings as a direct Google Cloud account holder through Google Account controls at myaccount.google.com/privacy.
