      • 1.2 Provisioning. The Hardware requires delivery and set-up, and must be configured to work on Customer’s network. The Service must also be customized for each Customer.

These updates are designed to improve, enhance, and further develop the Service as well as the Hardware upon which the Service operates.

Customer agrees to receive (and permit Google to deliver) such updates as part of Customer’s use of the Service on the Hardware.

      • 1.4 Privacy. Data privacy and security for the Service is addressed in the Google Workspace Agreement.
