Terms of Use

Service provider

Electrotentacles Limited
organized and operating under the laws of Nigeria

Elelu Village, 6 Alakia, Egbeda,
Ibadan 200001, Oyo
Nigeria

Age requirements

If you’re under the age required to manage your own Electrotentacles Account, you must have your parent or legal guardian’s permission to use a Electrotentacles Account. Please have your parent or legal guardian read these terms with you. If you’re a parent or legal guardian, and you allow your child to use the services, then these terms apply to you and you’re responsible for your child’s activity on the services. Some Electrotentacles have additional age requirements as described in their service-specific additional terms and policies.

What you can expect from us

Provide a broad range of useful services

We provide a broad range of services that are subject to these terms, including:

• apps and sites (like Search and Maps)
• platforms (like Electrotentacles Shopping)
• integrated services (like Maps embedded in other companies’ apps or sites)
• devices (like Electrotentacles Nest and Pixel)

Many of these services also include content that you can stream or interact with.

Our services are designed to work together, making it easier for you to move from one activity to the next. For example, if your Calendar event includes an address, you can click on that address and Maps can show you how to get there.

Develop, improve, and update Electrotentacles

We’re constantly developing new technologies and features to improve our services. For example, we use artificial intelligence and machine learning to provide you with simultaneous translations, and to better detect and block spam and malware. As part of this continual improvement, we sometimes add or remove features and functionalities, increase or decrease limits to our services, and start offering new services or stop offering old ones. When a service requires or includes downloadable or preloaded software, that software sometimes updates automatically on your device once a new version or feature is available. Some services let you adjust your automatic update settings.

If we make material changes that negatively impact your use of our services or if we stop offering a service, we’ll provide you with reasonable advance notice, except in urgent situations such as preventing abuse, responding to legal requirements, or addressing security and operability issues. We’ll also provide you with an opportunity to export your content from your Electrotentacles Account using Electrotentacles Account, subject to applicable law and policies.

What we expect from you

Follow these terms and service-specific additional terms

The permission we give you to access and use our services continues as long as you comply with:

• these terms
• service-specific additional terms, which could, for example, include things like additional age requirements

We also make various policies, help centers, and other resources available to you to answer common questions and to set expectations about using our services. These resources include our Privacy Policy, Copyright Help Center, Safety Center, Transparency Center, and other pages accessible from our policies site. Finally, we may provide specific instructions and warnings within our services – such as dialog boxes that alert you to important information.

Although we give you permission to use our services, we retain any intellectual property rights we have in the services.

Respect others

We want to maintain a respectful environment for everyone, which means you must follow these basic rules of conduct:

• comply with applicable laws, including export control, sanctions, and human trafficking laws
• respect the rights of others, including privacy and intellectual property rights
• don’t abuse or harm others or yourself (or threaten or encourage such abuse or harm) — for example, by misleading, defrauding, illegally impersonating, defaming, bullying, harassing, or stalking others

Our service-specific additional terms and policies, such as our Generative AI Prohibited Use Policy, provide additional details about appropriate conduct that everyone using those services must follow. If you find that others aren’t following these rules, many of our services allow you to report abuse. If we act on a report of abuse, we also provide the process described in the Taking action in case of problems section.

Don’t abuse our services

Most people who access or use our services understand the general rules that keep the internet safe and open. Unfortunately, a small number of people don’t respect those rules, so we’re describing them here to protect our services and users from abuse. In that spirit:
You must not abuse, harm, interfere with, or disrupt our services or systems — for example, by:

introducing malware

spamming, hacking, or bypassing our systems or protective measures

jailbreaking, adversarial prompting, or prompt injection, except as part of our safety and bug testing programs

accessing or using our services or content in fraudulent or deceptive ways, such as:

• phishing
• creating fake accounts or content, including fake reviews
• misleading others into thinking that generative AI content was created by a human
• providing services that appear to originate from you (or someone else) when they actually originate from us

providing services that appear to originate from us when they do not

using our services (including the content they provide) to violate anyone’s legal rights, such as intellectual property or privacy rights

reverse engineering our services or underlying technology, such as our machine learning models, to extract trade secrets or other proprietary information, except as allowed by applicable law

using automated means to access content from any of our services in violation of the machine-readable instructions on our web pages (for example, robots.txt files that disallow crawling, training, or other activities) using AI-generated content from our services to develop machine learning models or related AI technology

hiding or misrepresenting who you are in order to violate these terms

providing services that encourage others to violate these terms

Permission to use your content

Some of our services are designed to let you upload, submit, store, send, receive, or share your content. You have no obligation to provide any content to our services and you’re free to choose the content that you want to provide. If you choose to upload or share content, please make sure you have the necessary rights to do so and that the content is lawful.

License

Your content remains yours, which means that you retain any intellectual property rights that you have in your content. For example, you have intellectual property rights in the creative content you make, such as reviews you write. Or you may have the right to share someone else’s creative content if they’ve given you their permission. We need your permission if your intellectual property rights restrict our use of your content. You provide Electrotentacles with that permission through this license. What’s covered This license covers your content if that content is protected by intellectual property rights.
