Google is contractually prohibited from serving advertisements in the Google Workspace for Education environment. OUS’s agreement with Google limits Google’s use of PSU’s data to the uses necessary for Google to provide the services required by PSU. In order to provide essential core features for PSU Gmail, Google will run fully automated scanning and indexing processes to offer improved spam filtering, virus detection, and email search, just as the University currently does for these same purposes.
