A '''Google Account''' is a [[user account]] that is required for access, authentication and authorization to certain online [[Google]] services. It is also often used as [[single sign on]] for third party services.
..
==Security==
While creating a Google account, users are asked to provide a recovery email address to allow them to reset their password if they have forgotten it, or if their account is hacked. In some countries, such as the United States, the United Kingdom and India, Google may also require one-time use of a [[mobile phone]] [[telephone number|number]] to send an account validation code by SMS [[text messaging]] or voice message when creating a new account.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.latestcrunch.in/gmail-signup-step-by-step-procedure/ |title=Gmail sign up procedure |access-date=July 17, 2012 |publisher=LatestCrunch.in |year=2012 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120716115802/http://www.latestcrunch.in/gmail-signup-step-by-step-procedure/ |archive-date=July 16, 2012}}</ref><ref name="SMSacct">{{cite web |url=http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=114129 |title=I don't have a mobile phone, can I sign up? |access-date=July 8, 2009 |last=Google |author-link=Google |year=2009}}</ref>
Google also offers a [[two-step verification|2-step verification]] option—for additional security against hacking—that requests a validation code each time the user logs into their Google account. The code is either generated by an application ("[[Google Authenticator]]" or other similar apps) or received from Google as an SMS text message, a voice message, or an email to another account.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://support.google.com/accounts/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=180744 |title=2-step verification : How it works |access-date=July 17, 2012 |year=2012 | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20120715205932/https://support.google.com/accounts/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=180744 | archive-date = July 15, 2012 | url-status = live }}</ref><ref>{{cite web |last=Fallows |first=James |title=Hacked |url=https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2011/11/hacked/8673/?single_page=true |publisher=Atlantic Monthly |access-date=December 26, 2011 |archive-url=https://www.webcitation.org/64EGXxTPF?url=http://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2011/11/hacked/8673/?single_page=true |archive-date=December 26, 2011 |quote=As email, documents, and almost every aspect of our professional and personal lives moves onto the “cloud”—remote servers we rely on to store, guard, and make available all of our data whenever and from wherever we want them, all the time and into eternity—a brush with disaster reminds the author and his wife just how vulnerable those data can be.

Users who seek an even higher level of security protection, including users whose accounts could be attractive targets for hackers, such as celebrities, politicians, journalists, political activists and wealthy individuals, can opt-in to Google's Advanced Protection Program. This program requires the user to purchase two [[Universal 2nd Factor|U2F]] USB keys — not for data storage, but for identity verification. The U2F keys are used to provide two-step verification during login. One is for backup purposes, in case the first is lost. The Advanced Protection Program includes further security measures to protect the user's account, such as restrictions on which applications the user can grant access to their account, and a more thorough identity verification process for regaining access to the account if the password is forgotten.<ref name='eff-advanced-protection'>{{cite web |url=https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2018/01/googles-advanced-protection-program-offers-security-options-high-risk-users |title=Google's Advanced Protection Program Offers Security Options For High-Risk Users |last=Gebhart |first=Gennie |publisher=[[Electronic Frontier Foundation]] |date=January 22, 2018|access-date=July 17, 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180710135601/https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2018/01/googles-advanced-protection-program-offers-security-options-high-risk-users|archive-date=July 10, 2018|url-status=live }}</ref>

==Activity tracking==
The tool called 'My Activity' launched in 2016 - which supersedes Google Search history and Google Web History — enables users to see and delete data tracked by Google through the Google account.

A '''Google Account''' is a [[user account]] that is required for access, authentication and authorization to certain online [[Google]] services. It is also often used as [[single sign on]] for third party services.
==Usage==
A Google Account is required for [[Gmail]], [[Google Hangouts]], [[Google Meet]] and [[Blogger (service)|Blogger]]. Some [[List of Google products|Google products]] do not require an account, including [[Google Search]], [[YouTube]], [[Google Books]], [[Google Finance]] and [[Google Maps]]. However, an account is needed for uploading videos to YouTube and for making edits in Google Maps.
After a Google Account is created, the owner may selectively enable or disable various Google applications.<ref>{{cite web |title=Even More Google Products |url=http://www.google.com/intl/en/about/products/ |access-date=July 9, 2013|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130706051542/http://www.google.com/intl/en/about/products/|archive-date=July 6, 2013|url-status=live }}</ref>
[[YouTube]] and [[Blogger (service)|Blogger]] maintain separate accounts for users who registered with the services before the Google acquisition. However, effective April 2011 YouTube users are required to link to a separate Google Account if they wish to continue to log into that service.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://youtube-global.blogspot.com/2011/03/why-connecting-your-youtube-and-google.html |title=Why Connecting your YouTube and Google Accounts Matters |publisher=YouTube Blog |date=March 24, 2011 |access-date=August 6, 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110805115753/http://youtube-global.blogspot.com/2011/03/why-connecting-your-youtube-and-google.html |archive-date=August 5, 2011 |url-status=live }} Retrieved on August 5, 2011</ref>
Google Account users may create a publicly accessible Google profile, to configure their presentation on Google products to other Google users. A Google profile can be linked to a user's profiles on various [[social-networking]] and [[Image hosting service|image-hosting]] sites, as well as user [[blog]]s.
Third-party service providers may implement service authentication for Google Account holders via the Google Account mechanism.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/112802?hl=en |title=About the Sign in Request Page |access-date=July 1, 2015 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150713110232/https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/112802?hl=en |archive-date=July 13, 2015 |url-status=live }}</ref>

The tool called 'My Activity' launched in 2016 - which supersedes Google Search history and Google Web History — enables users to see and delete data tracked by Google through the Google account. The tool shows which websites were visited using Chrome while logged in, devices used, apps used, Google products interacted with, etc. All information is laid out in a timeline-like layout. Users can choose to entirely disable tracking, or remove certain activities which they don't want to be tracked.<ref>{{cite web |author1=Eric Ravenscraft |title=Google's New My Activity Page Lets You See and Delete All of Your Google Activity |url=http://lifehacker.com/googles-new-my-activity-page-lets-you-see-and-delete-al-1782805053 |date=June 29, 2016|access-date=May 26, 2017|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170617042513/http://lifehacker.com/googles-new-my-activity-page-lets-you-see-and-delete-al-1782805053|archive-date=June 17, 2017|url-status=live }}</ref>
