New privacy settings for Search services

feednp247@gmail.com  Hello Newsport247, We’re updating our settings to give you even more control over saved history and personalized recommendations across Google Search services, including Search, Maps, Shopping, Hotels, Flights, Translate, and News. You’ll see this change in your Google Account in the next few days. What’s changing Previously, saving history and personalization were managed by Web & App Activity. Going forward, we're introducing two new settings to help you better tailor your experience: Search Services History and Personalized Recommendations. These settings let you revisit your past searches and decide if you want your experience to be personalized. You can turn these settings on or off at any time. As people increasingly search in new ways, like searching a photo with Lens, Search Services History now includes media from your interactions, which you can stop saving at any time. How this affects your account New history and personalization settings: These new settings will reflect your most recent choices for Web & App Activity and Search Personalization settings. If these are currently on, these new settings will stay on. If they’re off, the new settings will be off. After the transition, Web & App Activity and Search services settings will be separate, and changes to one won’t affect the other. Auto-delete: Your prior choice from Web & App Activity for how long your history is saved will also apply to Search Services History. As always, you can change how long history is saved, choose an auto-delete period, and review or delete history manually at any time. Your media is saved when Search Services History is on: Saved media includes your images, files, audio and video from your interactions with Search services to help improve your experience. For example, this lets you revisit your past visual searches with Lens or continue a Search Live conversation about a song you heard. To support these types of interactive product experiences, Google will now save your media to your Search Services History, applying robust privacy and security protections. Like your Search Services History, your saved media is also used to develop and improve Google services and technologies, including AI models and safety measures. With this transition, if your Web & App Activity setting is currently turned on, this new Save Media subsetting will also be turned on along with your Search Services History. You can turn off your Save Media subsetting at any time, and you can also delete individual pieces of media from your history. You can manage these preferences on your Search Services History and Search Services Personalization pages.

Updates to how privacy settings work on Play

Hello Newsport247, We've updated settings that manage personalization and activity history on Play. You'll have dedicated controls for personalization on Play and for saving activity in your Google Account's Play History, and these settings will be easily accessible in the Google Play menu. In the past, personalization and history on Play were managed by Web & App Activity (WAA) settings in your Google Account. Going forward, WAA will no longer control Play personalization and Play History. Instead, you'll be able to manage those settings directly on Play, and you'll see this change in your account in the next few days. Learn more about Play personalization and Play History When the transition happens for your account, your Play settings will be based on the most recent choice you made in WAA, so your experience will stay the same. If you have WAA turned on during the transition, which is happening over the next few days, then your Play personalization and Play History settings will be on, and if WAA is off, then Play personalization and Play History will be off. As before, you'll be able to choose how long your activity is saved in your Play History and if you want to delete it from Play History manually or automatically. After the transition is complete, WAA and Play settings will be separate, and changes to one will no longer affect the other. You can view and change your Play privacy settings in Personalization in Play at any time. Learn more about the transition and how it affects your settings Thanks for using Google Play!
