G Suite For Education School Consent

G Suite for Education School Consent
In order for students to use the G Suite for Education Core Services (“Core Services”), schools
are required to provide consent.
Please review the information below about our data collection, use, and disclosure practices for
G Suite for Education, and provide consent below. Google will not knowingly collect, use or
disclose student’s personal information unless you’ve provided this consent.
Please note that schools are also required to obtain parent or guardian consent for
any Additional Services they allow students under the age of 18 to use. As a best practice, you
may also want to get parent or guardian consent for the Core Services you enable for students.
Please see here for resources about obtaining parental consent, including a
customizable template you can use with parents and guardians.
In addition to reviewing the information here, please also take the time to read our G Suite for
Education Privacy Notice. The Privacy Notice summarizes the key portions of the Google Privacy
Policy for G Suite for Education users, and contains additional information about user controls,
resources for parental review and deletion of personal information, and how to contact us.
Information we collect
A G Suite for Education account is a Google Account created and managed by a school for
use by students and educators. When creating this account, the school may provide Google
with certain personal information about its students and educators, which includes a user’s
name, email address, and password in most cases, but could also include secondary email,
phone, and address if the school chooses to provide that information. Google may also collect
personal information directly from users of G Suite for Education accounts, such as telephone
number, profile photo, or other information they add to a G Suite for Education account.
Google also collects information based on the use of our services. This includes:
• device information, such as the hardware model, operating system version, unique
device identifiers, and mobile network information including phone number of the
user;
• log information, including details of how a user used our service, device event
information, and the user's Internet protocol (IP) address;
• location information, as determined by various technologies including IP address,
GPS, and other sensors;
• unique application numbers, such as application version number; and
• cookies or similar technologies which are used to collect and store information about
a browser or device, such as preferred language and other settings.
How we use information we collect
In G Suite for Education Core Services

The G Suite for Education Core Services (“Core Services”) are listed in the Services
Summary and include Gmail, Calendar, Classroom, Contacts, Drive, Docs, Forms,
Groups, Sheets, Sites, Slides, Talk/Hangouts, Vault, and Chrome Sync. These
services are provided to a school under its G Suite for Education agreement and, as
applicable, Data Processing Amendment. (Users and parents can ask their school if it
has accepted the Data Processing Amendment.)
User personal information collected in the Core Services is used only to provide the
Core Services. Google does not serve ads in the Core Services or use personal
information collected in the Core Services for advertising purposes.
In Google services generally

Besides the Core Services, G Suite for Education users may have access to other
Google services that we make generally available for consumers, such as Google
Maps, Blogger, and YouTube. We call these “Additional Services” since they are
outside of the Core Services.
The Google Privacy Policy describes fully how Google services generally use
information, including for G Suite for Education users. To summarize, we use the
information we collect from all of our services to provide, maintain, protect and
improve them, to develop new ones, and to protect Google and our users. We also use
this information to offer users tailored content, such as more relevant search results.
We may combine personal information from one service with information, including
personal information, from other Google services.
Google may serve ads to G Suite for Education users in the Additional Services. For
G Suite for Education users in primary and secondary (K-12) schools, Google does
not use any user personal information (or any information associated with a G Suite
for Education Account) to target ads, whether in Core Services or other Google
services accessed while using a G Suite for Education account.

Information users share
A school may allow students to access Google services such as Google Docs and Sites, which
include features where users can share information with others or publicly. When users share
information publicly, it may be indexable by search engines, including Google. Our services
provide users with various options for sharing and removing content.
Information we share
Information we collect may be shared outside of Google in limited circumstances. We do not

share personal information with companies, organizations and individuals outside of Google
unless one of the following circumstances applies:
With user consent.

We will share personal information with companies, organizations or individuals
outside of Google when we have user consent or parents’ consent (as applicable).
With G Suite for Education administrators.

G Suite for Education administrators have access to information stored in the Google
Accounts of users in that school or domain.
For external processing.

We provide personal information to our affiliates or other trusted businesses or
persons to process it for us, based on our instructions and in compliance with our
Privacy Policy and any other appropriate confidentiality and security measures.
For legal reasons.

We will share personal information with companies, organizations or individuals
outside of Google if we have a good-faith belief that access, use, preservation or
disclosure of the information is reasonably necessary to:
• meet any applicable law, regulation, legal process or enforceable

governmental request.
• enforce applicable Terms of Service, including investigation of potential
violations.
• detect, prevent, or otherwise address fraud, security or technical issues.
• protect against harm to the rights, property or safety of Google, our users or
the public as required or permitted by law.
We may share non-personal information publicly and with our partners – like publishers or
connected sites. For example, we may share information publicly to show trends about the
general use of our services.
