FEMALE SPEAKER: Use a lot of Google products?
Gmail?
Maps?
YouTube?
Google Docs?
Haven't you ever wanted to just go to one place and get a
summary view of each Google product you use when
you're signed in?
Well, now you can with Google Dashboard.
Your Google Dashboard helps you answer the question what
does Google store in my account.
It summarizes data for each product you use and provides
you with direct links to better control
your personal settings.
To find the Google Dashboard, sign in to your Google account
with your username and password.
Then go to the settings menu and select
Google Account Settings.
Once you are in your Google accounts page, you will notice
a link that says Dashboard, View data
Stored with this account.
When you click on the Dashboard link, you will go to
a second sign-in page.
We will ask you to verify your password again to ensure extra
protection before we provide a summary of the data associated
with your Google account.
Once verified, you'll see your Dashboard is organized
according to the different products you use.
The Dashboard shows data associated with your Google
account, which means only information you share with us
as a logged-in user is included.
Let's look at Gmail, for example.
The Dashboard shows you how many messages you have sent
and how many chats you've participated in.
And look how easy it is to manage your personal
preferences for Gmail.
For example, if you click on Manage chat history, you can
go directly to our personal settings page for chat history
and change the option from Save chat history to Never
save chat history, all from one central location.
Let's look at YouTube as another example.
For this product, your Dashboard will show you
profile information that you provided to YouTube such as
your username, your gender and age, and your favorite videos
and playlists.
All the data in your Dashboard is considered private and only
viewable by you unless noted by the Shared icon.
We know how important it is to give you control over your
data in one place.
And that is why we created the Google Dashboard.
Dashboard gives you more transparency and control.
You have options to delete your data, change your
settings, and more easily control your overall user
experience.
So what are you waiting for?
