“Gmail consumer content will no longer be used or scanned for ad customization after this change,” he said, explaining that in the features of your service, you can deactivate that feature that had raised doubts about its legality.
Greene said that all users of Gmail and G Suite can be “sure” that the company continues to consider it “paramount” to protect both the security and privacy of Internet users.
Finally, the Google executive noted that more than 1.2 billion people use Gmail, while more than 3 million companies use the G Suite professional and payment service.
