How Google helps you delete data from your account

How Google helps you delete data from your account

Our privacy and security tools are designed to put you in control of your data and protect it. Based on your Activity controls, your activity on Google products and services like Search, Chrome, and YouTube may be saved in your Google Account. You can use My Activity to view and delete this data.

How deletion of activity works How Google deletes activity in your account 

When you select to delete activity manually or activity is deleted automatically based on your auto-delete setting, it starts the process of removal from the product and the systems.

First, we aim to remove it from view and the data may no longer be used to personalize your Google experience.

We then begin a process designed to safely and completely delete the data from our storage systems. 

Along with helping you delete data manually or automatically, Google may delete some types of activity sooner when it’s no longer useful to improve your experience.

Data that may be retained for limited purposes

When you delete some types of data from My Activity, Google may need to retain certain information associated with your Google Account for specific purposes, including for: 

Anonymized data

To help power certain services, an anonymized version of your data might be retained after you delete it. Anonymized data can no longer be associated with you or your account.

For example, if you delete a search from My Activity, an anonymized version of what you searched for may be retained to create functionality like global search trends.

Use of Google services

When data is deleted, some information about your use of Google services is kept until your Google Account is deleted, like which Google services you use and how frequently you use them.

For example, if you delete an address you've searched for in Google Maps, your account may still store that you've used the directions feature. That way, Google Maps can avoid showing you how to use the directions feature in the future.
