On July 29, 2026, we’re making some changes to our Google Play Terms of Service.
You can review the new terms here. At a glance, here’s what this update means for you:
•
System Services: We added language explaining that Google’s system services (which provide services/updates on certified Android devices) may require a network connection and may use your cellular data.
•
Account Sharing: We added language to clarify that you are responsible for any issues with your account that result from you sharing your account details in violation of the terms.
•
Subscription Management: We added language explaining that you remain responsible for balances in your Play account if we are unable to charge your designated payment method.
If you use Family Link to manage a Google Account for someone else, please take some time to talk to them about these changes.
