Google Assistant is built to keep your information private,
safe and secure.
This is a speaker with the Google Assistant.
It’s built to wait in standby mode
until it detects an activation like “Hey Google!”
While in standby mode,
Assistant won’t send what you were saying to Google
or anyone else.
After the Assistant detects an activation,
your device sends your request securely to Google,
so Assistant can respond with the help you need.
The status indicator on the device lets you know
when the Assistant has been activated.
“Hey Google, do I need an umbrella today?”

After the Assistant is activated,
your device can send what you say securely to Google
to process your request
so your Assistant can respond with the help you need.
“No, it’s not forecasted to rain in Pittsburgh today.”
By default, we don’t save your audio recordings
on Google servers.
That means the audio recording is automatically discarded
after we fulfill your request.
However, if you decide to turn on the voice
and audio recordings setting, your audio recordings
can support our human review process
to make Google’s speech technologies
better for everyone.
♪♪
Google Assistant may activate when you didn’t intend it to,
because of an accidental
manual activation or a noise like “Hey Google” is heard.
“Hey Noodle! Get down from there!”
We have a number of protections
designed to prevent this from occurring.
You can always visit the “Your data in Assistant”
tool in your settings to review or delete
your interactions with the Assistant,
including any audio recordings.
The Google Assistant is designed
to make your life easier,
while also giving you and your family
the privacy you deserve.
“Hey Google, good night!
