If your billing address is in Indonesia, please review these Terms of Service, which apply to your use of Google Maps Platform.

These Google Maps Platform Terms of Service, including the AUP and other URL Terms (together, the "Agreement") are entered into by Google (as defined at https://cloud.google.com/terms/google-entity) and the entity or person agreeing to these terms (“Customer”), and governs Customer’s access to and use of the Services.

This Agreement is effective when Customer clicks to accept the Agreement, or enters into an agreement into which these terms are incorporated by reference (the "Effective Date"). As the person accepting this Agreement on Customer’s behalf, you represent and warrant that: (a) you have full legal authority to bind Customer to this Agreement; (b) you have read and understand this Agreement; and (c) you agree, on behalf of Customer, to this Agreement. If you do not have the legal authority to bind Customer, please do not click to accept or use the Services.

1.1 Admin Console. Customer will have access to the Admin Console, through which Customer may manage its use of the Services. Customer must use the Admin Console in accordance with the Admin Console Documentation.

1.2 Accounts. Customer must have an Account to use the Services and is responsible for the information it provides to create the Account, the security of its passwords for the Account, and for any use of its Account, including any use of its API key(s). Customer is responsible for ensuring that only authorized domains and applications use the Services. Google has no obligation to provide multiple accounts to Customer. 

1.3 Updates

(a) To the Services. Google may update, discontinue, and otherwise modify the Services from time to time, subject to 1.3(c). Google will notify Customer if Google makes a change to the Services that materially reduces Service features or functionalities, provided that Customer has subscribed with Google to be informed about such change. 

(b) To the Agreement. Google may make updates to the Agreement (including the URL terms) and pricing from time to time. Google will post any modification to this Agreement to https://cloud.google.com/maps-platform/terms. Unless otherwise noted by Google, material changes to the Agreement will become effective 30 days after notice is given, except to the extent the changes apply to new Services or functionality or are required by applicable law or court order, in which case they will be effective immediately. Google will provide at least 90 days’ advance notice for materially adverse changes to any SLAs by: (i) sending an email to the Notification Email Address; (ii) posting a notice in the Admin Console; or (iii) posting a notice to the applicable SLA webpage. If Customer does not agree to the revised Agreement, Customer may stop using the Services. Customer may also terminate this Agreement for convenience under Section 10.4 (Termination for Convenience). Customer’s continued use of the Services after the material change becomes effective will constitute Customer’s consent to such update.

(c) Discontinued Services. Google will notify Customer at least 12 months before discontinuing a Service (or associated material functionality) without providing a materially similar replacement. Further, Google will notify Customer at least 12 months before modifying any Customer-facing Google APIs in a backwards-incompatible manner. Nothing in this Section 1.3(c) limits Google’s ability to make changes required to comply with applicable law, address a material security risk, or avoid a substantial economic or material technical burden. This Section 1.3(c) does not apply to pre-general availability Services, offerings or functionality. 

2.1 Free Quota. Certain Services are provided to Customer without charge up to the Fee Threshold, as applicable.

2.2 Online Billing. At the end of the applicable Fee Accrual Period, Google will issue an electronic bill to Customer for all charges accrued based on Customer’s use of the Services during the applicable Fee Accrual Period (including, if applicable, the relevant Fees for Maps Technical Support Services). If Google reasonably determines based on evidence available to Google that Customer is at risk of non-payment or that Customer’s Account is potentially fraudulent, then Google may invoice Customer more frequently. Customer will pay all Fees set forth in the invoice. If Customer elects to pay by credit card, debit card, or other non-invoiced form of payment, Google will charge (and Customer will pay) all Fees immediately at the end of the Fee Accrual Period. If Customer elects to pay by invoice (and Google agrees), all Fees are due as stated in the invoice. Unless required by law, Customer’s obligation to pay all Fees is non-cancellable. Google's measurement of Customer’s use of the Services is final. Google has no obligation to provide multiple bills. Payments made via wire transfer must include the bank information provided by Google.

2.3 Taxes.

(a) Customer is responsible for any Taxes, and Customer will pay Google for the Services without any reduction for Taxes. If Google is obligated to collect or pay Taxes, the Taxes will be invoiced to Customer and Customer will pay such Taxes to Google, unless Customer provides Google with a timely and valid tax exemption certificate in respect of those Taxes. If Taxes must be withheld from any payment to Google, then Customer will increase the payment to Google so that the net amount received by Google is equal to the amount invoiced, without reduction for Taxes. 

(b) If required under applicable law, Customer will provide Google with applicable tax identification information that Google may require to ensure its compliance with applicable tax regulations and authorities in applicable jurisdictions. Customer will be liable to pay (or reimburse Google for) any taxes, interest, penalties or fines arising out of any mis-declaration by the Customer.

2.4 Payment Disputes & Refunds. Any payment disputes must be submitted in good faith before the payment due date. If Google, having reviewed the dispute in good faith, determines that certain billing inaccuracies are attributable to Google, Google will not issue a corrected invoice, but instead will issue a credit memo specifying the incorrect amount in the affected invoice. If a disputed invoice has not yet been paid, Google will apply the credit memo amount to a disputed invoice, and Customer will be responsible for paying the resulting net balance due on that invoice. Refunds given by Google for billing inaccuracies under this Section will only be in the form of credit for the Services. Nothing in the Agreement obligates Google to extend credit to any party.

2.5 Delinquent Payments; Suspension. Late payments (which, for clarity, do not include amounts subject to a good faith payment dispute submitted before the payment due date), may bear interest at the rate of 1.5% per month (or the highest rate permitted by law, if less) from the payment due date until paid in full. Customer will be responsible for all reasonable expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by Google in collecting such delinquent amounts. Further, in the event of any late payment for the Services is overdue, Google may Suspend the Services. 

2.6 No Purchase Order Number Required. Customer is obligated to pay all applicable Fees without any requirement for Google to provide a purchase order number on Google’s invoice (or otherwise).

3.1 License Grant. Subject to the Agreement's terms, during the Term, Google grants to Customer a non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, license to use the Services in Customer Application(s).

3.2 License Requirements and Restrictions. The following are conditions of the license granted in Section 3.1 (License Grant). In this Section 3.2 (License Requirements and Restrictions), the phrase “Customer will not” means “Customer will not, and will not permit a third party to”.

(ii) If the Customer Application allows users to include the Google Maps Core Services in Downstream Products, then Customer will contractually require that all Downstream Products’ terms of service satisfy the same notice and flow-down requirements that apply to the Customer Application under Section 3.2.2 (a) (i) (Terms of Service and Privacy Policy).

(iii) If users of the Customer Application (and Downstream Products, if any) fail to comply with the applicable terms of the Google Maps/Google Earth Additional Terms of Service, then Customer will take appropriate enforcement action, including Suspending or terminating those users’ use of Google Maps features and content in the Customer Application or Downstream Products.

Customer will not use the Services to create a product or service with features that are substantially similar to or that re-create the features of another Google product or service.

For example, Customer will not: (i) re-distribute the Google Maps Core Services or pass them off as if they were Customer’s services; (ii) use the Google Maps Core Services to create a substitute of the Google Maps Core Services, Google Maps, or Google Maps mobile apps, or their features; (iii) use the Google Maps Core Services in a listings or directory service or to create or augment an advertising product; (iv) combine data from the Directions API, Geolocation API, and Maps SDK for Android to create real-time navigation functionality substantially similar to the functionality provided by the Google Maps for Android mobile app.

For example, Customer will not (i) display or use Places content on a non-Google map, (ii) display Street View imagery and non-Google maps on the same screen, or (iii) link a Google Map to non-Google Maps content or a non-Google map.

(f) No Circumventing Fees. Customer will not circumvent the applicable Fees.

(g) No Use in Prohibited Territories. Customer will not distribute or market in a Prohibited Territory any Customer Application(s) that use the Google Maps Core Services.

(h) No Use in Embedded Vehicle Systems. Customer will not use the Google Maps Core Services in connection with any Customer Application or device embedded in a vehicle.

(i) No Use in Customer Application Directed To Children. Customer will not use the Google Maps Core Services in a Customer Application that would be deemed to be a “Website or online service directed to children” under the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA).

4.3 Copyright Policy. Google will respond to notices of alleged copyright infringement and may terminate repeat infringers in appropriate circumstances as required to maintain safe harbor for online service providers under the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act. If Customer believes a person or entity is infringing Customer’s or End Users’ copyrights and would like to notify Google, Customer can find information about submitting notices, and Google's policy about responding to notices at https://www.google.com/dmca. 

4.4 Data Use, Protection, and Privacy.

(a) Data Use and Retention. To provide the Services through the Customer Application(s), Google collects and receives data from Customer and End Users (and End Users’ End Users, if any), including search terms, IP addresses, and latitude/longitude coordinates.

(ii) End User Personal Data. Through the normal functioning of the Google Maps Core Services, End Users provide personally identifiable information and Personal Data directly to Google, subject to the then-current Google Privacy Policy at https://policies.google.com/privacy. However, Customer will not provide to Google (1) any End User’s personally identifiable information; or (2) any European End User’s Personal Data (where “European” means “European Economic Area, Switzerland, or the UK”).

5.1 AUP Violations. If Google becomes aware that Customer’s or any End User’s use of the Services violates the AUP, Google will notify Customer and request Customer correct the violation.

5.2 Other Suspension. Notwithstanding Section 5.1 (AUP Violations), Google may immediately Suspend Customer’s use of the Services if (a) Google reasonably believes Suspension is needed to protect the Services, Google’s infrastructure supporting the Services, or any other customer of the Services (or their end users); (b) Google is required to Suspend such use to comply with applicable law; (c) there is suspected unauthorized third-party access to the Services; or (d) Customer violates Section 3.2 (License Requirements and Restrictions), or Section 4.4 (Data Use, Protection, and Privacy). Google will lift any such Suspension when the circumstances giving rise to the Suspension have been resolved to Google’s satisfaction. At Customer’s request, Google will, unless prohibited by applicable law, notify Customer of the basis for the Suspension as soon as is reasonably possible.

5.3 For Alleged Third-Party Intellectual Property Rights Infringement. If the Customer Application is alleged to infringe a third party’s Intellectual Property Rights, Google may suspend all use of the Google Maps Services in the Customer Application on 30 days’ written notice until such allegation is fully resolved. This Section 5.3 (For Alleged Third-Party Intellectual Property Rights Infringement) does not reduce Customer’s obligations under Section 14 (Indemnification).

6.1 Intellectual Property Rights. Except as expressly stated in the Agreement, the Agreement does not grant either party any rights, implied or otherwise, to the other’s content or any of the other’s intellectual property.

Each party represents and warrants that: (a) it has full power and authority to enter into the Agreement; and (b) it will comply with Export Control Laws and Anti-Bribery Laws applicable to its provision, receipt, or use, of the Services, as applicable.

EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED FOR IN THE AGREEMENT, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, GOOGLE: (A) DOES NOT MAKE ANY WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY, OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR USE, NONINFRINGEMENT, OR ERROR-FREE OR UNINTERRUPTED USE OF THE SERVICES OR SOFTWARE; (B) MAKES NO REPRESENTATION ABOUT CONTENT OR INFORMATION ACCESSIBLE THROUGH THE SERVICES; AND (C) SUBJECT TO APPLICABLE LAW, WILL ONLY BE REQUIRED TO PROVIDE THE REMEDIES EXPRESSLY STATED IN THE SLA FOR FAILURE TO PROVIDE THE SERVICES.
