- Installed apps for app functionality and analytics purposes. This information can be used to show you the list of apps you may use to connect to your smart home devices.
- Other user-generated content, such as the text you use to name a new smart light bulb, like “study desk light,” for app functionality purposes.
- Personal identifiers, such as your Google Account identifier, for app functionality purposes. This is used to link a smart home device to a specific Google Account for use within the Google Home app and Google Assistant.
The data collected is encrypted in transit.
