Google Merchant Center 服务条款

本 Google Merchant Center 服务条款（以下简称“条款”）的订立双方为 Google LLC（以下简称“Google”）和签署本条款或通过电子方式接受本条款的实体（以下简称“商家”）。本条款约束了商家对 Google Merchant Center 的使用，包括对符合以下特征的相关服务、特性和功能（以下简称“服务”）的使用：(i) 可通过根据本条款提供给商家的帐号（以下简称“帐号”）使用；或者 (ii) 以提述的方式将本条款纳入其中（以下统称为“GMC”）。  

  1. 使用 GMC。商家可通过各种方式（包括通过 Google API）向 GMC 提交数据、Feed 或其他内容（以下简称“内容”）。商家同意，在提交内容时遵守 Google 提供给商家的任何说明或规范。Google 可能会提供某些功能，允许商家将内容从 GMC 导出、链接或传输至其他 Google 服务，或者通过其他方式将 GMC 中的内容用于其他 Google 服务。在此类情况下，商家对此类服务的使用须遵守此类其他 Google 服务的条款及条件，同时商家对 GMC 的使用仍受本条款约束。如果商家选择使用某些可选的 GMC 服务，则商家可能需要同意这些服务单独附带的条款。某些 GMC 服务会标为“Beta 版”、暂不提供支持或属于机密功能（以下统称为“Beta 版功能”）。商家不得透露 Beta 版功能中的任何信息，也不得透露任何非公开 Beta 版功能的存在或其条款。Google 或其关联公司可能随时暂停、修改或者终止服务，包括 Beta 版功能。在本条款中，“关联公司”表示不时直接或间接控制 Google、由 Google 控制或者与 Google 受共同控制的实体。
  2. 帐号。商家要想使用 GMC，则需要创建一个或多个帐号并经过 Google 批准。为了验证帐号以及不时检查商家对 GMC 的使用情况，Google 可能需要您提供额外的信息，包括法律实体名称、电话号码、地址和相关网域。商家对其 GMC 使用情况负责，包括对帐号的所有访问和使用、通过帐号提交给 GMC 的内容，以及保护帐号用户名和密码的安全。
  3. 政策。
    1. 商家在使用 GMC 时需要遵守：(i) 在 https://support.google.com/merchants/topic/7286989?hl=zh-Hans&ref_topic=7259123 上列出的适用 Google 政策，以及由 Google 提供给商家的所有其他政策，Google 可能不时修改这些政策（以下统称为“政策”）；(ii) 本条款；以及 (iii) 商家应遵守的适用法律。
    2. 在涉及 GMC 的事宜中：(i) Google 将遵守《Google 隐私权政策》（网址为 google.com/policies/privacy，可能会不时修订）；并且 (ii) 在适用范围内，Google 和商家同意遵守《Google 控制方-控制方数据保护条款》（网址为 https://privacy.google.com/businesses/gdprcontrollerterms/，以下简称“数据保护条款”）。除非在数据保护条款明确允许的情况下，否则 Google 不会修改数据保护条款。
  4. 商家内容。
    1. 商家特此向 Google 授予不可撤消、全球范围、免版税的许可，允许 Google 在适用法律规定的相关知识产权的最长有效期内，将内容（在知识产权保护的范畴内）用于与 Google 或其关联公司的产品和服务相关的方面。商家同意，Google 可将这些权利再许可给为其关联公司，以及为 Google 或其关联公司和 Google 及其关联公司的用户履行服务的承包商，以便他们可以在使用 Google 或其关联公司的产品和服务时使用此类内容。
    2. 如果商家提交的内容中包含网址或类似内容，商家特此授权 Google 对此类网址和通过此类网址提供的内容（以下简称“目标页面”）进行访问、编入索引、缓存或抓取。例如，Google 可能会利用自动化软件程序检索和分析与此类网址关联的网站。商家同意，Google 从目标页面收集的任何内容均视为本条款中的内容，并根据本条款进行处理。
    3. 使用 GMC 即表示，商家授权 Google 在依据授权使用内容时，可使用任何相关商标、服务商标、商号、专有徽标、域名和其他任何来源或业务标识符。
  5. 测试。商家授权 Google 及其关联公司：(a) 在不事先通知商家的情况下，定期开展可能会影响商家使用服务的测试（包括与目标页面、质量、排名、效果、格式或其他调整相关的测试）；以及 (b) 自动检索和分析目标页面，并创建测试凭据以访问目标页面。

  7. 免责声明。在法律允许的最大范围内，同时根据下文第 7(C) 条的规定：(A) Google 及其关联公司皆不提供任何形式（包括默示、法定或其他形式）的保证，包括不侵权、质量令人满意、适销以及适合特定用途的保证，以及在任何交易过程或商业惯例中产生的任何保证；并且 (B) GMC 及其相关服务按“原样”“现状”以及“不保证没有任何瑕疵”的形式提供，商家使用 GMC 及其相关服务时自行承担风险。对于 GMC、其相关服务以及由其产生的任何相关结果，Google 及其关联公司不作任何保证。Google 及其关联公司并不承诺会就商品缺陷或错误通知商家。(C) 商家所属管辖区内的某些法律可能对相关权利和救济进行了规定，并将一些条款暗含到本条款中，这些均无法排除。本条款不会排除此类权利、救济和默示条款。在相关法律允许 Google 限制其施行的情况下，Google 在这些法律下的责任将仅限于再次提供服务或者支付再次提供服务的费用，具体由 Google 自主选择。

  10. 终止。如果 (a) 商家违反本条款、任何政策或适用法律；(b) Google 为了遵守法律要求或法院命令；或 (c) 商家行为给第三方或 Google 造成损害或法律责任，则 Google 保留（完全或部分）限制、暂停或终止商家访问或使用 GMC、服务或帐号的权利。如果商家认为对其 GMC、服务或帐号的访问限制、暂停或终止有误，请参考政策中的申诉流程。商家可随时通过关闭其帐号并停止使用 GMC 来终止本条款。
  11. 条款的变更。Google 有权随时对本条款进行非重大变更，恕不另行通知；但是如果要对条款做出重大变更，Google 会提前发出通知。对条款的更改不溯及既往，并将于在本页面上发布 15 天后生效。但是，出于法律原因或在紧急情况下（例如防止持续滥用）所做的更改将在发出通知后立即生效。

Google Merchant Center Terms of Service

These Google Merchant Center Terms of Service (“Terms”) are entered into by Google LLC (“Google”) and the entity executing these Terms or that accepts these Terms electronically (“Merchant”).  These Terms govern Merchant’s use of the Google Merchant Center, including related services, features and functionality (“Services”) (i) that are accessible through the account(s) given to Merchant in connection with these Terms (“Accounts”) or (ii) that incorporate these Terms by reference (collectively, “GMC”).  

  1. Using GMC.  Merchant may submit data, feeds or other content (“Content”) to GMC using various means, including through Google APIs. Merchant agrees to submit Content in a manner that complies with any instructions or specifications made available to Merchant by Google. Google may make available functionality that permits Merchant to export, link or transfer Content from GMC to, or otherwise use Content from GMC with, another Google service. In that case, the terms and conditions of such other Google service will apply with respect to Merchant’s use of such service, provided that Merchant’s use of GMC will continue to be governed by these Terms. If Merchant chooses to use certain optional GMC Services, then Merchant may be required to agree to separate terms that are specific to those Services.  Some GMC Services are identified as “Beta” or as otherwise unsupported or confidential (“Beta Features”).  Merchant may not disclose any information from or about Beta Features or the terms or existence of any non-public Beta Features.  Google or its Affiliates may suspend, modify or discontinue Services, including Beta Features, at any time.  For purposes of these Terms, “Affiliate” means any entity that directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with Google from time to time.
  2. Account.  Merchant’s use of GMC is subject to creation and approval by Google of one or more Account(s).  In order to verify Accounts, and from time-to-time in connection with Merchant’s use of GMC, Google may require additional information, including legal entity name, phone number, address and relevant domains. Merchant is responsible for its use of GMC, including all access to and use of Accounts, Content submitted to GMC through Accounts and safeguarding of Account usernames and passwords.
  3. Policies.
    1. Merchant’s use of GMC is subject to (i) the applicable Google policies available at https://support.google.com/merchants/topic/7286989?hl=en&ref_topic=7259123 and all other policies made available by Google to Merchant, as may be modified by Google from time to time (collectively, “Policies”), (ii) these Terms and (iii) Merchant’s compliance with applicable law(s).
    2. In connection with GMC, (i) Google will comply with the Google Privacy Policy available at google.com/policies/privacy (as modified from time to time) and (ii) to the extent applicable, Google and Merchant agree to the Google Controller-Controller Data Protection Terms at https://privacy.google.com/businesses/gdprcontrollerterms/ (“Data Protection Terms”).  Google will not modify the Data Protection Terms, except as expressly permitted under the Data Protection Terms.
  4. Merchant Content.
    1. Merchant hereby grants to Google an irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free license to use Content (to the extent protected by intellectual property rights) in connection with Google’s or its Affiliates’ products and services for the maximum duration of such intellectual property rights under applicable law. Merchant agrees that Google may sublicense these rights to its Affiliates and contractors performing services for Google or its Affiliates and to Google’s and its Affiliates’ users so they can use such Content in connection with using Google’s or its Affiliates’ products and services.
    2. If Content submitted by Merchant contains URLs or similar content, Merchant hereby grants to Google the right to, access, index, cache or crawl the URL(s) and the content available through such URL(s) (“Destinations”).  For example, Google may utilize an automated software program to retrieve and analyze websites associated with such URLs.  Merchant agrees that any content collected by Google from Destinations will be considered Content and treated as such in accordance with these Terms.
    3. By using GMC, Merchant authorizes Google to use any trademarks, service marks, trade names, proprietary logos, domain names and any other source or business identifiers in connection with Google's authorized use of Content.
  5. Testing.  Merchant authorizes Google and its Affiliates to (a) periodically conduct tests that may affect Merchant’s use of Services (including as relates to Destinations, quality, ranking, performance, formatting or other adjustments) without notice to Merchant, and (b) automate retrieval and analysis of, and create test credentials to access, Destinations.
  6. Warranty, Rights, and Obligations.  Merchant represents and warrants that (a) Merchant has full power and authority to enter into these Terms, (b) Merchant holds, and will maintain, the rights to grant the licenses and permissions set forth in Section 4, (c) Merchant will not provide any Content that violates Policies, applicable law or any applicable privacy policies, or infringes any third party intellectual property rights, (d) Merchant has all necessary rights and consents to make available to Google any information collected from or about an individual that is subject to protection under applicable data privacy or data protection laws or regulations and (e) information and authorizations provided by Merchant (including all necessary product-related disclosures required to display Merchant offers) are and will remain complete, correct and current.
  7. Disclaimers.  TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, AND SUBJECT TO SECTION 7(C) BELOW: (A) GOOGLE AND ITS AFFILIATES DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, WHETHER  IMPLIED, STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING FOR NON-INFRINGEMENT, SATISFACTORY QUALITY, MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR ANY PURPOSE, AS WELL AS ANY WARRANTIES ARISING OUT OF ANY COURSE OF DEALING OR USAGE OF TRADE; AND (B) GMC AND ITS RELATED SERVICES ARE PROVIDED “AS IS,” “AS AVAILABLE” AND “WITH ALL FAULTS,” AND MERCHANT USES THEM AT ITS OWN RISK.

GOOGLE AND ITS AFFILIATES MAKE NO PROMISE TO INFORM MERCHANT OF DEFECTS OR ERRORS. (C) CERTAIN LAWS OF THE JURISDICTION IN WHICH MERCHANT RESIDES MAY CONFER RIGHTS AND REMEDIES AND IMPLY TERMS INTO THESE TERMS THAT CANNOT BE EXCLUDED.  THOSE RIGHTS, REMEDIES AND IMPLIED TERMS ARE NOT EXCLUDED BY THESE TERMS.

  8. Limitation of Liability.  TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW REGARDLESS OF THEORY OR TYPE OF CLAIM, (A) GOOGLE AND ITS AFFILIATES WILL NOT BE HELD LIABLE UNDER THESE TERMS OR ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO PERFORMANCE OF THESE TERMS FOR ANY DAMAGES OTHER THAN DIRECT DAMAGES, EVEN IF GOOGLE OR ONE OF ITS AFFILIATES IS AWARE OR SHOULD KNOW THAT SUCH OTHER TYPES OF DAMAGES ARE POSSIBLE AND EVEN IF DIRECT DAMAGES DO NOT SATISFY A REMEDY; AND (B) GOOGLE AND ITS AFFILIATES WILL NOT BE HELD LIABLE FOR DAMAGES UNDER THESE TERMS OR ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO PERFORMANCE OF THESE TERMS FOR ANY GIVEN EVENT OR SERIES OF CONNECTED EVENTS IN THE AGGREGATE OF MORE THAN USD$500.00.
  9. Indemnification.  To the extent allowed by applicable law, Merchant will defend and indemnify Google, its Affiliates, agents and licensors against all liabilities, damages, losses, costs, fees (including legal fees), and expenses relating to any third-party legal proceeding to the extent arising out of or related to Merchant’s Content, Destinations, use of GMC, its related Services or any breach of these Terms by Merchant.
  10. Termination.  Google reserves the right to restrict, suspend or terminate (in whole or in part) Merchant’s access to, or use of, GMC, the Services or the Account(s) if (a) Merchant breaches these Terms, any Policies or applicable law(s), (b) Google is required to do so to comply with a legal requirement or a court order or (c) Merchant’s conduct causes harm or liability to a third party or Google. If Merchant believes its access to GMC, the Services or the Account(s) has been restricted, suspended or terminated in error, please refer to the appeal process in the Policies. Merchant may terminate these Terms at any time by closing its Account(s) and ceasing to use GMC.
  11. Changes to Terms.  Google may make non-material changes to these Terms at any time without notice, but Google will provide advance notice of any material changes to these Terms. Changes to the Terms will not apply retroactively and will become effective 15 days after posting on this page. However, changes made for legal reasons or in urgent situations (such as preventing ongoing abuse) will be effective immediately upon notice.
  12. Governing Law; Dispute Resolution. All claims arising out of or relating to these Terms or GMC will be governed by California law, excluding California’s conflict of laws rules, and will be litigated exclusively in the federal or state courts of Santa Clara County, California, USA; the parties consent to personal jurisdiction in those courts.  If Merchant is based in an applicable jurisdiction, Merchant may also apply to resolve a dispute with Google arising in relation to these Terms or GMC through mediation. Merchant can find more details about the mediators Google is willing to engage with and instructions on how to request mediation here. Except as required by applicable law, mediation is voluntary and neither Merchant nor Google is obliged to settle disputes through mediation.
  13. Translation.  If these Terms are translated into any other language, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, such translation exists for reference purposes only, and the English text will take precedence in the event of a conflict.
  14. Miscellaneous. (a) These Terms are the parties’ entire agreement relating to their subject matter and supersede any prior or contemporaneous agreements on those subjects. (b) Merchant may not make any public statement regarding the relationship contemplated by these Terms (except when required by law). (c) Except for modifications to the Terms by Google under Section 11, any amendment to these Terms must be agreed to by both parties and must expressly state that it is amending these Terms. (d) All notices of termination or breach must be in writing and addressed to the other party’s Legal Department (or if it is not known if the other party has a Legal Department then to the other party's primary contact or other address on file). Emails are written notices. The email address for notices being sent to Google’s Legal Department is legal-notices@google.com.  All other notices to Merchant will be in writing and sent to an email address associated with Merchant’s account.  All other notices to Google will be in writing and addressed to Merchant’s primary contact at Google or other method made available by Google. Notice will be treated as given on receipt, as confirmed by written or electronic means. These notice requirements do not apply to legal service of process, which is instead governed by applicable law. (e) Neither party will be treated as having waived any rights by not exercising (or by delaying the exercise of) any rights under these Terms.
