| 30 <h2>Google Chrome Terms of Service</h2> | |
| 31 <p>These Terms of Service apply to the executable code version of Google Chrome.
Source code for Google Chrome is available free of charge under open source sof
tware licence agreements at chrome://credits.</p> | |
| 32 <p><strong>1. Your relationship with Google</strong></p> | |
| 33 <p>1.1 Your use of Google’s products, software, services and websites (referred
to collectively as the “Services” in this document and excluding any services pr
ovided to you by Google under a separate written agreement) is subject to the te
rms of a legal agreement between you and Google. “Google” means Google Inc., who
se principal place of business is at 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, C
A 94043, United States. This document explains how the agreement is made up and
sets out some of the terms of that agreement.</p> | |
| 34 <p>1.2 Unless otherwise agreed in writing with Google, your agreement with Googl
e will always include, at a minimum, the terms and conditions set out in this do
cument. These are referred to below as the “Universal Terms”. Open-source softwa
re licences for Google Chrome source code constitute separate written agreements
. To the limited extent that the open-source software licences expressly superse
de these Universal Terms, the open-source licences govern your agreement with Go
ogle for the use of Google Chrome or specific included components of Google Chro
me.</p> | |
| 35 <p>1.3 Your agreement with Google will also include the terms set forth below in
the Google Chrome Additional Terms of Service and terms of any Legal Notices ap
plicable to the Services, in addition to the Universal Terms. All of these are r
eferred to below as the “Additional Terms”. Where Additional Terms apply to a Se
rvice, these will be accessible for you to read either within or through your us
e of that Service.</p> | |
| 36 <p>1.4 The Universal Terms, together with the Additional Terms, form a legally b
inding agreement between you and Google in relation to your use of the Services.
It is important that you take the time to read them carefully. Collectively, th
is legal agreement is referred to below as the “Terms”.</p> | |
| 37 <p>1.5 If there is any contradiction between what the Additional Terms say and w
hat the Universal Terms say, then the Additional Terms shall take precedence in
relation to that Service.</p> | |
| 38 <p><strong>2. Accepting the Terms</strong></p> | |
| 39 <p>2.1 In order to use the Services, you must first agree to the Terms. You may
not use the Services if you do not accept the Terms.</p> | |
| 40 <p>2.2 You can accept the Terms by:</p> | |
| 41 <p>(A) clicking to accept or agree to the Terms, where this option is made avail
able to you by Google in the user interface for any Service; or</p> | |
| 42 <p>(B) by actually using the Services. In this case, you understand and agree th
at Google will treat your use of the Services as acceptance of the Terms from th
at point onwards.</p> | |
| 43 <p><strong>3. Language of the Terms</strong></p> | |
| 44 <p>3.1 Where Google has provided you with a translation of the English-language
version of the Terms, then you agree that the translation is provided for your c
onvenience only and that the English-language versions of the Terms will govern
your relationship with Google.</p> | |
| 45 <p>3.2 If there is any contradiction between what the English-language version o
f the Terms says and what a translation says, then the English-language version
shall take precedence.</p> | |
| 46 <p><strong>4. Provision of the Services by Google</strong></p> | |
| 47 <p>4.1 Google has subsidiaries and affiliated legal entities around the world (“
Subsidiaries and Affiliates”). Sometimes, these companies will be providing the
Services to you on behalf of Google itself. You acknowledge and agree that Subsi
diaries and Affiliates will be entitled to provide the Services to you.</p> | |
| 48 <p>4.2 Google is constantly innovating in order to provide the best possible exp
erience for its users. You acknowledge and agree that the form and nature of the
Services that Google provides may change from time to time, without prior notic
e to you.</p> | |
| 49 <p>4.3 As part of this continuing innovation, you acknowledge and agree that Goo
gle may stop (permanently or temporarily) providing the Services (or any feature
s within the Services) to you or to users generally at Google’s sole discretion,
without prior notice to you. You may stop using the Services at any time. You d
o not need to specifically inform Google when you stop using the Services.</p> | |
| 50 <p>4.4 You acknowledge and agree that if Google disables access to your account,
you may be prevented from accessing the Services, your account details or any f
iles or other content that is contained in your account.</p> | |
| 51 <p><strong>5. Use of the Services by you</strong></p> | |
| 52 <p>5.1 You agree to use the Services only for purposes that are permitted by (a)
the Terms and (b) any applicable law, regulation or generally accepted practice
s or guidelines in the relevant jurisdictions (including any laws regarding the
export of data or software to and from the United States or other relevant count
ries).</p> | |
| 53 <p>5.2 You agree that you will not engage in any activity that interferes with o
r disrupts the Services (or the servers and networks that are connected to the S
ervices).</p> | |
| 54 <p>5.3 Unless you have been specifically permitted to do so in a separate agreem
ent with Google, you agree that you will not reproduce, duplicate, copy, sell, t
rade or resell the Services for any purpose.</p> | |
| 55 <p>5.4 You agree that you are solely responsible for (and that Google has no res
ponsibility to you or to any third party for) any breach of your obligations und
er the Terms and for the consequences (including any loss or damage that Google
may suffer) of any such breach.</p> | |
| 56 <p><strong>6. Privacy and your personal information</strong></p> | |
| 57 <p>6.1 For information about Google’s data protection practices, please read Goo
gle’s privacy policy at http://www.google.com/privacy.html and at http://www.goo

in whole or in part), unless you have been specifically told that you may do so
by Google or by the owners of that Content, in a separate agreement.</p> | |
| 62 <p>7.3 Google reserves the right (but shall have no obligation) to prescreen, re
view, flag, filter, modify, refuse or remove any or all Content from any Service
. For some of the Services, Google may provide tools to filter out explicit sexu
al content. These tools include the SafeSearch preference settings (see https://
support.google.com/websearch/answer/510). In addition, there are commercially av
ailable services and software to limit access to material that you may find obje
ctionable.</p> | |
| 63 <p>7.4 You understand that by using the Services, you may be exposed to Content
that you may find offensive, indecent or objectionable and that, in this respect
, you use the Services at your own risk.</p> | |
| 64 <p>7.5 You agree that you are solely responsible for (and that Google has no res
ponsibility to you or to any third party for) any Content that you create, trans
mit or display while using the Services, and for the consequences of your action
s (including any loss or damage that Google may suffer) by doing so.</p> | |
| 65 <p><strong>8. Proprietary rights</strong></p> | |
| 66 <p>8.1 You acknowledge and agree that Google (or Google’s licensors) own all leg

| 67 <p>8.2 Unless you have agreed otherwise in writing with Google, nothing in the T
erms gives you a right to use any of Google’s trade names, trade marks, service
marks, logos, domain names and other distinctive brand features.</p> | |
| 68 <p>8.3 If you have been given an explicit right to use any of these brand featur
es in a separate written agreement with Google, then you agree that your use of
such features shall be in compliance with that agreement, any applicable provisi
ons of the Terms and Google's brand-feature use guidelines, as updated from time
to time. These guidelines can be viewed online at http://www.google.co.uk/permi
ssions/guidelines.html (or such other URL as Google may provide for this purpose
from time to time).</p> | |
| 69 <p>8.4 Google acknowledges and agrees that it obtains no right, title or interes
t from you (or your licensors) under these Terms in or to any Content that you s
ubmit, post, transmit or display on or through the Services, including any intel
lectual property rights which subsist in that Content (whether those rights happ
en to be registered or not, and wherever in the world those rights may exist). U

esponsible for protecting and enforcing those rights and that Google has no obli
gation to do so on your behalf.</p> | |

, from time to time, from Google. These updates are designed to improve, enhance

such updates (and permit Google to deliver these to you) as part of your use of
the Services.</p> | |

or available from such websites or resources.</p> | |
| 122 <p><strong>18. Changes to the Terms</strong></p> | |
| 123 <p>18.1 Google may make changes to the Universal Terms or Additional Terms from
time to time. When these changes are made, Google will make a new copy of the Un
iversal Terms available at http://www.google.com/chrome/intl/en-GB/eula_text.htm
l and any new Additional Terms will be made available to you from within or thro
ugh the affected Services.</p> | |
| 124 <p>18.2 You understand and agree that if you use the Services after the date on
which the Universal Terms or Additional Terms have changed, Google will treat yo
ur use as acceptance of the updated Universal Terms or Additional Terms.</p> | |
| 125 <p><strong>19. General legal terms</strong></p> | |
| 126 <p>19.1 Sometimes, when you use the Services, you may (as a result of, or in con
nection with your use of the Services) use a service or download a piece of soft
ware, or purchase goods which are provided by another person or company. Your us
e of these other services, software or goods may be subject to separate terms be
tween you and the company or person concerned. If so, the Terms do not affect yo
ur legal relationship with these other companies or individuals.</p> | |
| 127 <p>19.2 The Terms constitute the whole legal agreement between you and Google an

ide to you under a separate written agreement) and completely replace any prior
agreements between you and Google in relation to the Services.</p> | |
| 128 <p>19.3 You agree that Google may provide you with notices, including those rega
rding changes to the Terms, by email, letter post or postings on the Services.</
p> | |
| 129 <p>19.4 You agree that if Google does not exercise or enforce any legal right or
remedy that is contained in the Terms (or which Google has the benefit of under
any applicable law), this will not be taken to be a formal waiver of Google’s r
ights and that those rights or remedies will still be available to Google.</p> | |
| 130 <p>19.5 If any court of law, having the jurisdiction to decide on this matter, r
ules that any provision of these Terms is invalid, then that provision will be r
emoved from the Terms without affecting the rest of the Terms. The remaining pro
visions of the Terms will continue to be valid and enforceable.</p> | |
| 131 <p>19.6 You acknowledge and agree that each member of the group of companies of
which Google is the parent shall be third-party beneficiaries to the Terms and t
hat such other companies shall be entitled to directly enforce and rely upon any
provision of the Terms that confers a benefit on (or rights in favour of) them.
Other than this, no other person or company shall be third-party beneficiaries
to the Terms.</p> | |
| 132 <p>19.7 The Terms and your relationship with Google under the Terms shall be gov
erned by the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflict-of-
laws provisions. You and Google agree to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of
the courts located within the county of Santa Clara, California to resolve any
legal matter arising from the Terms. Notwithstanding this, you agree that Google
shall still be allowed to apply for injunctive remedies (or an equivalent type

| 133 <p><strong>20. Additional Terms for Extensions for Google Chrome</strong></p> | |
| 134 <p>20.1 These terms in this section apply if you install extensions on your copy
of Google Chrome. Extensions are small software programmes, developed by Google

than regular web pages, including the ability to read and modify your private d
ata.</p> | |
| 135 <p>20.2 From time to time, Google Chrome may check with remote servers (hosted b
y Google or by third parties) for available updates to extensions, including, bu
t not limited to bug fixes or enhanced functionality. You agree that such update
s will be requested automatically, downloaded and installed without further noti
ce to you.</p> | |
| 136 <p>20.3 From time to time, Google may discover an extension that violates Google
developer terms or other legal agreements, laws, regulations or policies. Googl
e Chrome will periodically download a list of such extensions from Google’s serv
ers. You agree that Google may remotely disable or remove any such extension fro
m user systems at its sole discretion. </p> | |
| 137 <p><strong>21. Additional Terms for Enterprise Use</strong></p> | |
| 138 <p>21.1 If you are a business entity, then the individual accepting on behalf of

siness in the country or countries where you operate and that your employees, of
ficers, representatives and other agents accessing the Service are duly authoris
ed to access Google Chrome and to legally bind you to these Terms.</p> | |

Google grants you a non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to reproduce, distri
bute, install and use Google Chrome solely on machines intended for use by your
employees, officers, representatives and agents in connection with your business
entity, and provided that their use of Google Chrome will be subject to the Ter
