ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

Because Gemini shares a Google account with other services, a serious policy violation in Gemini could potentially result in broader account consequences affecting unrelated services you depend on.

Interpretive note: The criteria for determining when a Gemini violation is sufficiently serious to affect the broader Google account are not precisely defined, creating uncertainty about the scope of this risk.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

The agreement states that users may not use Gemini to generate content that facilitates real-world harm, including violent, deceptive, or sexually exploitative material, and that Google may suspend or terminate access for violations. The policy also states that users should not rely on Gemini outputs for medical, legal, financial, or safety-critical decisions without qualified human review. You can review the full list of prohibited use categories at https://policies.google.com/terms/generative-ai/use-policy to determine whether your use case is covered.
