Google Maps Platform License Agreement

This Google Maps Platform License Agreement (the "Agreement") is made and entered into between Google (as defined in Section 21 (Definitions)) and the entity or person agreeing to these terms ("Customer").

This Agreement is effective as of the date Customer clicks to accept the Agreement, or enters into a Reseller Agreement if purchasing through a Reseller (the "Effective Date"). If you are accepting on behalf of Customer, you represent and warrant that: (a) you have full legal authority to bind Customer to this Agreement; (b) you have read and understand this Agreement; and (c) you agree, on behalf of Customer, to this Agreement. If you do not have the legal authority to bind Customer, please do not click to accept. This Agreement governs Customer's access to and use of the Services.
1. Provision of the Services.

1.1 Use of the Services in Customer Applications.  Google will provide the Services to Customer in accordance with the Agreement, and Customer may use the Services in Customer Application(s) in accordance with Section 3 (License).

1.2 Admin Console; Projects; API Keys. Customer will administer the Services through the online Admin Console. To access the Services, Customer must create Project(s) and use its API key(s) in accordance with the Documentation.

1.3 Accounts. Customer must have an Account. Customer is responsible for: (a) the information it provides in connection with the Account; (b) maintaining the confidentiality and security of the Account and associated passwords; and (c) any use of its Account.

1.4 Customer Domains and Applications. Customer must list in the Admin Console each authorized domain and application that uses the Services. Customer is responsible for ensuring that only authorized domains and applications use the Services.

1.5 New Features and Services. Google may: (a) make new features or functionality available through the Services and (b) add new services to the "Services" definition (by adding them at the URL stated under that definition). Customer’s use of new features or functionality may be contingent on Customer’s agreement to additional terms applicable to the new feature or functionality.

1.6 Modifications.

1.6.1 To the Services. Subject to Section 9 (Deprecation Policy), Google may make changes to the Services, which may include adding, updating, or discontinuing any Services or portion or feature(s) of the Services. Google will notify Customer of any material change to the Services.

1.6.2. To the Agreement. Google may make changes to the Agreement, including pricing and any linked documents. Unless otherwise noted by Google, material changes to the Agreement will become effective 30 days after notice is given, except (a) materially adverse SLA changes will become effective 90 days after notice is given; and (b) changes applicable to new Services or functionality, or required by a court order or applicable law, will be effective immediately. Google will provide notice for materially adverse changes to any SLAs by: (i) sending an email to the Notification Email Address; (ii) posting a notice in the Admin Console; or (iii) posting a notice to the applicable SLA webpage. If Customer does not agree to the revised Agreement, Customer should stop using the Services. Google will post any modification to this Agreement to the Terms URL.
2. Payment Terms.

2.1 Free Quota. Certain Services are provided to Customer without charge up to the Fee Threshold, as applicable.

2.2 Online Billing. At the end of the applicable Fee Accrual Period, Google will issue an electronic bill to Customer for all charges accrued above the Fee Threshold based on Customer’s use of the Services during the previous Fee Accrual Period. For use above the Fee Threshold, Customer will be responsible for all Fees up to the amount set in the Account and will pay all Fees in the currency set forth in the invoice. If Customer elects to pay by credit card, debit card, or other non-invoiced form of payment, Google will charge (and Customer will pay) all Fees immediately at the end of the Fee Accrual Period. If Customer elects to pay by invoice (and Google agrees), all Fees are due as stated in the invoice. Customer’s obligation to pay all Fees is non-cancellable. Google's measurement of Customer’s use of the Services is final. Google has no obligation to provide multiple bills. Payments made via wire transfer must include the bank information provided by Google. If Customer has entered into the Agreement with GCL, Google may collect payments via Google Payment Limited, a company incorporated in England and Wales with offices at Belgrave House, 76 Buckingham Palace Road, London, SW1W 9TQ, United Kingdom.

2.3 Taxes.

2.3.1 Customer is responsible for any Taxes, and Customer will pay Google for the Services without any reduction for Taxes. If Google is obligated to collect or pay Taxes, the Taxes will be invoiced to Customer, unless Customer provides Google with a timely and valid tax exemption certificate authorized by the appropriate taxing authority. In some states the sales tax is due on the total purchase price at the time of sale and must be invoiced and collected at the time of the sale. If Customer is required by law to withhold any Taxes from its payments to Google, Customer must provide Google with an official tax receipt or other appropriate documentation to support such withholding. If under the applicable tax legislation the Services are subject to local VAT and the Customer is required to make a withholding of local VAT from amounts payable to Google, the value of Services calculated in accordance with the above procedure will be increased (grossed up) by Customer for the respective amount of local VAT and the grossed up amount will be regarded as a VAT inclusive price. Local VAT amount withheld from the VAT-inclusive price will be remitted to the applicable local tax entity by the Customer and Customer will ensure that Google will receive payment for its services for the net amount as would otherwise be due (the VAT inclusive price less the local VAT withheld and remitted to applicable tax authority).

2.3.2 If required under applicable law, Customer will provide Google with applicable tax identification information that Google may require to ensure its compliance with applicable tax regulations and authorities in applicable jurisdictions. Customer will be liable to pay (or reimburse Google for) any taxes, interest, penalties or fines arising out of any mis-declaration by the Customer.

2.4 Invoice Disputes & Refunds. Any invoice disputes must be submitted before the payment due date. If Google determines that Fees were incorrectly invoiced, then Google will issue a credit equal to the agreed amount. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Customer waives all claims relating to Fees unless claimed within 60 days after charged (this does not affect any Customer rights with its credit card issuer). Nothing in the Agreement obligates Google to extend credit to any party.

2.5 Delinquent Payments; Suspension. If Customer’s payment is overdue, then Google may (a) charge interest on overdue amounts at 1.5% per month (or the highest rate permitted by law, if less) from the Payment Due Date until paid in full, and (b) Suspend the Services or terminate the Agreement. Customer will reimburse Google for all reasonable expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by Google in collecting overdue payments except where such payments are due to Google’s billing inaccuracies.

2.6 No Purchase Order Number Required. Google is not required to provide a purchase order number on Google’s invoice (or otherwise).
3. License.

3.1 License Grant. Subject to the Agreement's terms, during the Term, Google grants to Customer a non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, license to use the Services in Customer Application(s).

3.2 License Requirements and Restrictions. The following are conditions of the license granted in Section 3.1 (License Grant). In this Section 3.2 (License Requirements and Restrictions), the phrase “Customer will not” means “Customer will not, and will not permit a third party to”.

3.2.1 General Restrictions. Customer will not: (a) copy, modify, create a derivative work of, reverse engineer, decompile, translate, disassemble, or otherwise attempt to extract any or all of the source code (except to the extent such restriction is expressly prohibited by applicable law); (b) sublicense, transfer, or distribute any of the Services; (c) sell, resell, sublicense, transfer, or distribute the Services; or (d) access or use the Services: (i) for High Risk Activities; (ii) in a manner intended to avoid incurring Fees; (iii) for materials or activities that are subject to the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) maintained by the United States Department of State; (iv) in a manner that breaches, or causes the breach of, Export Control Laws; or (v) to transmit, store, or process health information subject to United States HIPAA regulations.

3.2.2 Requirements for Using the Services.

(a) Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.

(i) The Customer Application’s terms of service will (A) notify users that the Customer Application includes Google Maps features and content; and (B) state that use of Google Maps features and content is subject to the then-current versions of the: (1) Google Maps/Google Earth Additional Terms of Service at https://maps.google.com/help/terms_maps.html; and (2) Google Privacy Policy at https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/.

(ii) If the Customer Application allows users to include the Google Maps Core Services in Downstream Products, then Customer will contractually require that all Downstream Products’ terms of service satisfy the same notice and flow-down requirements that apply to the Customer Application under Section 3.2.2 (a) (i) (Terms of Service and Privacy Policy).

(iii) If users of the Customer Application (and Downstream Products, if any) fail to comply with the applicable terms of the Google Maps/Google Earth Additional Terms of Service, then Customer will take appropriate enforcement action, including Suspending or terminating those users’ use of Google Maps features and content in the Customer Application or Downstream Products.

(b) Attribution.  Customer will display all attribution that (i) Google provides through the Services (including branding, logos, and copyright and trademark notices); or (ii) is specified in the Maps Service Specific Terms. Customer will not modify, obscure, or delete such attribution.

(c) Review of Customer Applications. At Google’s request, Customer will submit Customer Application(s) and Project(s) to Google for review to ensure compliance with the Agreement (including the AUP).

3.2.3 Restrictions Against Misusing the Services.

(a)  No Scraping. Customer will not export, extract, or otherwise scrape Google Maps Content for use outside the Services. For example, Customer will not: (i) pre-fetch, index, store, reshare, or rehost Google Maps Content outside the services; (ii) bulk download Google Maps tiles, Street View images, geocodes, directions, distance matrix results, roads information, places information, elevation values, and time zone details; (iii) copy and save business names, addresses, or user reviews; or (iv) use Google Maps Content with text-to-speech services.

(b) No Caching. Customer will not cache Google Maps Content except as expressly permitted under the Maps Service Specific Terms.

(c) No Creating Content From Google Maps Content. Customer will not create content based on Google Maps Content. For example, Customer will not: (i) trace or digitize roadways, building outlines, utility posts, or electrical lines from the Maps JavaScript API Satellite base map type; (ii) create 3D building models from 45° Imagery from Maps JavaScript API; (iii) build terrain models based on elevation values from the Elevation API; (iv) use latitude/longitude values from the Places API as an input for point-in-polygon analysis; (v) construct an index of tree locations within a city from Street View imagery; or (vi) convert text-based driving times into synthesized speech results.

(d) No Re-Creating Google Products or Features. Customer will not use the Services to create a product or service with features that are substantially similar to or that re-create the features of another Google product or service. Customer’s product or service must contain substantial, independent value and features beyond the Google products or services. For example, Customer will not: (i) re-distribute the Google Maps Core Services or pass them off as if they were Customer’s services; (ii) create a substitute of the Google Maps Core Services, Google Maps, or Google Maps mobile apps, or their features; (iii) use the Google Maps Core Services in a listings or directory service or to create or augment an advertising product; (iv) combine data from the Directions API, Geolocation API, and Maps SDK for Android to create real-time navigation functionality substantially similar to the functionality provided by the Google Maps for Android mobile app.

(e) No Use With Non-Google Maps. To avoid quality issues and/or brand confusion, Customer will not use the Google Maps Core Services with or near a non-Google Map in a Customer Application. For example, Customer will not (i) display or use Places content on a non-Google map, (ii) display Street View imagery and non-Google maps on the same screen, or (iii) link a Google Map to non-Google Maps content for a non-Google map.

(f) No Circumventing Fees. Customer will not circumvent the applicable Fees. For example, Customer will not create multiple billing accounts or Projects to avoid incurring Fees, prevent Google from accurately calculating Customer’s Service usage levels, abuse any free Service quotas, or offer access to the Services under a “time-sharing” or “service bureau” model.

(g) No Use in Prohibited Territories. Customer will not distribute or market in a Prohibited Territory any Customer Application(s) that use the Google Maps Core Services.

(h) No Use in Embedded Vehicle Systems. Customer will not use the Google Maps Core Services in connection with any Customer Application or device embedded in a vehicle. For example, Customer will not create a Customer Application that (i) is embedded in an in-dashboard automotive infotainment system; and (ii) allows End Users to request driving directions from the Directions API.

(i)  No Use in Customer Application Directed To Children. Customer will not use the Google Maps Core Services in a Customer Application that would be deemed to be a “Web site or online service directed to children” under the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA).

(j) No Modifying Search Results Integrity. Customer will not modify any of the Google Maps Core Service’s search results.

3.2.4 Benchmarking. Customer may not publicly disclose directly or through a third party the results of any comparative or compatibility testing, benchmarking, or evaluation of the Services (each, a “Test”), unless the disclosure includes all information necessary for Google or a third party to replicate the Test. If Customer conducts, or directs a third party to conduct, a Test of the Services and publicly discloses the results directly or through a third party, then Google (or a Google directed third party) may conduct Tests of any publicly available cloud products or services provided by Customer and publicly disclose the results of any such Test (which disclosure will include all information necessary for Customer or a third party to replicate the Test).
4. Customer Obligations. 

4.1 Compliance.

4.2 Documentation. Google may provide Documentation for Customer’s use of the Services. The Documentation may specify restrictions (e.g. attribution or HTML restrictions) on how the Services may be used and Customer will comply with any such restrictions specified.

4.3 Copyright Policy. Google provides information to help copyright holders manage their intellectual property online, but Google cannot determine whether something is being used legally without input from the copyright holders. Google will respond to notices of alleged copyright infringement and may terminate repeat infringers in appropriate circumstances as required to maintain safe harbor for online service providers under the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act. If Customer believes a person or entity is infringing Customer’s or End Users’ copyrights and would like to notify Google, Customer can find information about submitting notices, and Google's policy about responding to notices at https://www.google.com/dmca.html.

4.4 Data Use, Protection, and Privacy.

4.4.1 Data Use and Retention. To provide the Services through the Customer Application(s), Google collects and receives data from Customer and End Users (and End Users’ End Users, if any), including search terms, IP addresses, and latitude/longitude coordinates.

4.4.2 European Data Protection Terms. Google and Customer agree to the Google Maps Controller-Controller Data Protection Terms at https://cloud.google.com/maps-platform/terms/maps-controller-terms.

4.4.3 End User Requirements.

(a) End User Privacy.  Customer’s use of the Services in the Customer Application will comply with applicable privacy laws, including laws regarding Services that store and access Cookies on End Users’ devices.   Customer will comply with the then-current Consent Policy at https://www.google.com/about/company/user-consent-policy.html, if applicable.

(b) End User Personal Data. Through the normal functioning of the Google Maps Core Services, End Users provide personally identifiable information and Personal Data directly to Google, subject to the then-current Google Privacy Policy at https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/. (a) However, Customer will not provide to Google (i) any End User’s personally identifiable information; or (ii) any European End User’s Personal Data (where “European” means “European Economic Area, Switzerland, or the UK”).

(c) End User Location Privacy Requirements. To safeguard End Users’ location privacy, Customer will ensure that the Customer Application(s): (i) notify End Users in advance of (1) the type(s) of data that Customer intends to collect from the End Users or the End Users’ devices, and (2) the combination and use of End User's location with any other data provider's data; and (ii) will not obtain or cache any End User's location except with the End User's express, prior, revocable consent.

Any Suspension under those Sections will be to the minimum extent and for the shortest duration required to: (a) prevent or terminate the offending use, (b) prevent or resolve the Emergency Security Issue, or (c) comply with applicable law.

5.2.1 AUP Breaches. If Google becomes aware that Customer’s or any End User’s use of the Services breaches the AUP, Google will give Customer notice of such breach by requesting that Customer correct the breach. If Customer fails to correct such breach within 24 hours, or if Google is otherwise required by applicable law to take action, then Google may Suspend all or part of Customer’s use of the Services.

5.2.2 Emergency Suspension. Google may immediately Suspend Customer’s use of the Services if (a) there is an Emergency Security Issue or (b) Google is required to Suspend such use to comply with applicable law. At Customer’s request, unless prohibited by applicable law, Google will notify Customer of the basis for the Suspension as soon as is reasonably possible.

5.3 For Alleged Third-Party Intellectual Property Rights Infringement. If the Customer Application is alleged to infringe a third party’s Intellectual Property Rights, Google may require Customer to suspend all use of the Google Maps Core Services in the Customer Application on 30 days’ written notice until such allegation is fully resolved. In any event, this Section 5.3 (For Alleged Third-Party Intellectual Property Rights Infringement) does not reduce Customer’s obligations under Section 15 (Indemnification).
6. Intellectual Property Rights; Feedback.

6.1 Intellectual Property Rights. Except as expressly stated in the Agreement, the Agreement does not grant either party any rights, implied or otherwise, to the other’s content or any of the other’s intellectual property. As between the parties, Customer owns all Intellectual Property Rights in the Customer Application, and Google owns all Intellectual Property Rights in the Google Maps Core Services.

6.2 Customer Feedback. If Customer provides Google Feedback about the Services, then Google may use that information without obligation to Customer, and Customer irrevocably assigns to Google all right, title, and interest in that Feedback.

10. Confidentiality.

10.1 Confidentiality Obligations. Subject to Section 10.2 (Required Disclosure), the recipient will use the other party’s Confidential Information only to exercise its rights and fulfill its obligations under the Agreement.

11.2 Termination for Breach. Either party may terminate the Agreement for breach if: (a) the other party is in material breach of the Agreement and fails to cure that breach within 30 days after receipt of written notice; (b) the other party ceases its business operations; or (c) becomes subject to insolvency proceedings and the proceedings are not dismissed within 90 days.  Google may terminate Projects or access to Services, if Customer meets any of the conditions in subsections (a) or (b).

11.3 Termination for Inactivity. Google may terminate Projects with 30 days' prior written notice if such Project (a) has not made any requests to the Services from any Customer Applications for more than 180 days; or (b) has not incurred any Fees for more than 180 days.

11.4 Termination for Convenience. Customer may stop using the Services at any time. Subject to any financial commitments expressly made by this Agreement, Customer may terminate the Agreement for its convenience at any time with 30 days' prior written notice.

If Customer wants to display Google Brand Features in connection with its use of the Services, Customer must obtain written permission from Google through the process specified in the Trademark Guidelines. Google may include Customer’s name or Brand Features in a list of Google customers, online or in promotional materials. Google may also verbally reference Customer as a customer of the Services. Neither party needs approval if it is repeating a public statement that is substantially similar to a previously-approved public statement. Any use of a party’s Brand Features will inure to the benefit of the party holding Intellectual Property Rights to those Brand Features. A party may revoke the other party’s right to use its Brand Features under this Section with written notice to the other party and a reasonable period to stop the use.
13. Representations and Warranties.

15. Indemnification.

15.1 Customer Indemnification Obligations. Unless prohibited by applicable law, Customer will defend Google and its Affiliates and indemnify them against Indemnified Liabilities in any Third-Party Legal Proceeding to the extent arising from (a) any Customer Indemnified Materials or (b) Customer’s or an End User’s use of the Services in violation of the AUP or in violation of the Agreement.

15.3 Indemnification Exclusions. Sections 15.1 (Customer Indemnification Obligations) and 15.2 (Google Indemnification Obligations) will not apply to the extent the underlying Allegation arises from (a) the indemnified party’s breach of the Agreement or (b) a combination of the Customer Indemnified Materials or Google Indemnified Materials (as applicable)s with materials not provided by the indemnifying party, unless the combination is required by the Agreement.

15.4 Indemnification Conditions. Sections 15.1 (Customer Indemnification Obligations) and 15.2 (Google Indemnification Obligations) are conditioned on the following:

(a) The indemnified party must promptly notify the indemnifying party in writing of any Allegation(s) that preceded the Third-Party Legal Proceeding and cooperate reasonably with the indemnifying party to resolve the Allegation(s) and Third-Party Legal Proceeding. If breach of this Section 15.4(a) prejudices the defense of the Third-Party Legal Proceeding, the indemnifying party’s obligations under Section 15.1 (Customer Indemnification Obligations) or 15.2 (Google Indemnification Obligations) (as applicable) will be reduced in proportion to the prejudice.

(b) The indemnified party must tender sole control of the indemnified portion of the Third-Party Legal Proceeding to the indemnifying party, subject to the following: (i) the indemnified party may appoint its own non-controlling counsel, at its own expense; and (ii) any settlement requiring the indemnified party to admit liability, pay money, or take (or refrain from taking) any action, will require the indemnified party’s prior written consent, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed.

15.5 Remedies.

(a) If Google reasonably believes the Services might infringe a third party’s Intellectual Property Rights, then Google may, at its sole option and expense: (i) procure the right for Customer to continue using the Services; (ii) modify the Services to make them non-infringing without materially reducing their functionality; or (iii) replace the Services with a non-infringing, functionally equivalent alternative.

(b) If Google does not believe the remedies in Section 15.5(a) are commercially reasonable, then Google may Suspend or terminate Customer’s use of the impacted Services.

15.6 Sole Rights and Obligations. Without affecting either party’s termination rights, this Section 15 states the parties’ sole and exclusive remedy under the Agreement for any Allegations of Intellectual Property Rights infringement covered by this Section 15 (Indemnification).
16. Liability.

16.1 Limited Liabilities

(a) To the extent permitted by applicable law and subject to Section 16.2 (Unlimited Liabilities), neither party and Google’s licensors will have any Liability arising out of or relating to the Agreement for any (i) indirect, consequential, special, incidental, or punitive damages or (ii) lost revenues, profits, savings, or goodwill.

(b) Each party’s total aggregate Liability for damages arising out of or relating to the Agreement is limited to the Fees Customer paid under the Agreement during the 12 month period before the event giving rise to Liability.

16.2 Unlimited Liabilities. Nothing in the Agreement excludes or limits either party’s Liability for:

(a) its infringement of the other party’s Intellectual Property Rights

(b) its payment obligations under the Agreement; or
