Google App Engine Data Warehouse Data Privacy

I play with the Google App Engine and Datastore.

Really amazing stuff going on there.

But I could not help but doubt what Google can do with the data that my application stores there Datastore.

Can anyone explain this in simple worlds?

thanks

The Google App Engine is governed by Google's general privacy policy . They promise not to exchange information outside of Google, except in certain circumstances (court order, etc.), and they restrict access only to those employees who need it. However, since they may use your data to “provide, support, protect and improve our services”, Google may use your data for their own purposes (maybe not, but I don’t see anything that prevented them).

Disclaimer: I am not a lawyer. In addition, this policy does not provide GAE-specific information.

It is worth noting that Google Cloud has a separate Terms of Service , which includes this line:

5.2 Use of customer data. Google will not receive or use Customer’s data, unless necessary to provide the Services to Customer.
