Google Cloud Marketplace Terms of Service

1.1. Use of Marketplace. Google publishes listings for both Vendor Products and Google Products on the Marketplace. Subject to this Agreement, Customer may access and use the Marketplace to purchase those products.

1.2. Product Listings

1.2.1. Vendor Products. For transactions of Vendor Products on the Marketplace, Google will indicate at the time of sale whether Google is acting as the merchant and seller of record, or if Google or an Affiliate is acting as the Vendor’s agent, for that purchase. For transactions of Vendor Products for which Google or an Affiliate acts as Vendor’s agent for that purchase (“Agency Transaction(s)”), please see Appendix A for additional terms that apply to such transactions.

1.2.2. Google Products. For transactions of Google Products on the Marketplace, Google will be the merchant and seller of record for that purchase.

Unless otherwise specified in the applicable product listing, Customer’s purchase and use of Google Products are governed by the agreement under which Google or the applicable Affiliate provides Customer with access to and use of those Google Products and not this Agreement.

1.3. Resellers on the Marketplace. If you are accessing Marketplace as a Google-authorized reseller under the Google Cloud Partner Advantage Program or any successor channel partner program (“GCP Reseller”) or as a Google-authorized distributor under the Google Cloud Partner Advantage Program or any successor channel partner program (“GCP Distributor”) and buying a Vendor Product for resale to a customer or reseller, as applicable, please review the Google Cloud Marketplace Terms of Service - Google Cloud Platform Resellers which are incorporated by reference and specify the terms that apply to your access to and use of Marketplace and your resale of the Vendor Product.

If you are accessing Marketplace as a customer buying a Vendor Product via a GCP Reseller billing account, then prior to completing a purchase on Marketplace, you must confirm with the GCP Reseller applicable to your purchase that the GCP Reseller has reviewed and accepted the Google Cloud Marketplace Terms of Service - Google Cloud Platform Resellers which are incorporated by reference and specify the terms that apply to the GCP Reseller’s access to and use of Marketplace and resale of the Vendor Product.

If you are accessing Marketplace as a Reseller buying a Vendor Product via a GCP Distributor billing account, then prior to completing a purchase on Marketplace, you must confirm with the GCP Distributor applicable to your purchase that the GCP Distributor has reviewed and accepted the Google Cloud Marketplace Terms of Service - Google Cloud Platform Resellers, which are incorporated by reference and specify the terms that apply to the GCP Distributor’s access to and use of Marketplace and resale of the Vendor Product.

1.4. Regional Versions; Public Sector. If your billing account is in EMEA, APAC, India, or the U.S. Public Sector, please review Section 14 (Regional and Public Sector Terms), which specifies the terms that apply to your use of the Marketplace.

Fees for Vendor Products will be included in Customer’s invoice for Google Cloud Platform services. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the GCP Agreement, all invoicing and payment terms in the GCP Agreement will apply to Vendor Products.

3.1. Compliance. Customer will (a) ensure that Customer and its End Users' use of the Marketplace and Vendor Products complies with the Agreement and applicable laws, and (b) promptly notify Google of any unauthorized use of, or access to, the Marketplace.

3.2. Third Party License Terms. Google or a Vendor may require Customer to accept a Vendor Agreement. Access to and use of a BYOL Product is governed by the Vendor or third-party software license agreements associated with that BYOL Product.

3.3. Vendor Access to Customer Data. Certain Vendor Products may require the Vendor to access Customer Data from the Customer’s GCP Account in order to provide the Vendor Product, as described in the relevant product listing. By purchasing or enabling any such Vendor Product, Customer will be instructing Google (pursuant to the Cloud Data Processing Addendum under Customer’s GCP Agreement) to share Customer Data with the Vendor of such Vendor Product in order for the Vendor to provide the Vendor Product and in connection with any technical support requests under Section 4 (Support for Vendor Products). Customer acknowledges that Google will have no further access to or control over any Customer Data once shared with the Vendor, that Vendor will not be a Subprocessor (as defined in the Cloud Data Processing Addendum under Customer’s GCP Agreement) in respect of Google’s sharing of Customer Data with the Vendor, and that Vendor’s access, use, storage, deletion and processing of such Customer Data will be governed by a Vendor Agreement or other terms governing Vendor’s provision of the Vendor Product to Customer, and not this Agreement. For clarity, Google’s treatment of Customer Data will be governed by the Cloud Data Processing Addendum under Customer’s GCP Agreement for as long as Google retains such Customer Data.

3.4. Restrictions. Customer will not, and will not allow End Users to, (a) copy, modify, or create a derivative work of the Marketplace; (b) reverse engineer, decompile, translate, disassemble, or otherwise attempt to extract any or all of the source code of, the Marketplace (except to the extent such restriction is expressly prohibited by applicable law); (c) sell or resell Vendor Products; or (d) access or use the Marketplace or Vendor Products in a manner intended to avoid incurring Fees or to circumvent usage limits or quotas. Any additional restrictions related to the use of Vendor Products are as set forth in the Vendor Agreement.

3.5. VM Product Deployment. Unless otherwise expressly stated in the Vendor Product listing, Customer and its End Users may only deploy Vendor Products with a virtualization component in Google Cloud Platform instances managed by Customer or its End Users. Vendor Products with a virtualization component may not be deployed outside of the Google Cloud Platform.

4.1. Vendor Products Generally. Except as otherwise specified in Section 4.2 (Google Supported Products), any technical support for Vendor Products will be provided by the applicable Vendor on terms agreed to between the Vendor and Customer. Subject to Section 4.2 (Google Supported Products), Google will not be responsible or liable for any technical support to Customer for any Vendor Products, including any security updates or patches provided by Vendor.

4.2. Google Supported Products. For certain Vendor Products, as described in the applicable product listing page, Google (and not the Vendor) will provide all frontline technical support (“Google Supported Products”). In order to receive access to technical support for Google Supported Products, Customer must purchase a technical support package for Google Cloud Platform pursuant to the Customer’s GCP Agreement. Google will provide Customer with the same level of technical support for Google Supported Products that Customer has purchased for Google Cloud Platform (e.g., Development, Production or Enterprise level support) as described at TSS Guidelines.

5.1. To the Marketplace. Google may make commercially reasonable updates to the Marketplace from time to time. Google will notify Customer of any material changes to the Marketplace.

5.2. To the Agreement. Google may make changes to this Agreement (including the URL Terms) from time to time. Google will provide notice of the changes via posting updates to the Agreement at https://cloud.google.com/terms/marketplace/launcher (or any successor URL where this Agreement may be posted) (“Marketplace TOS”), and unless otherwise noted by Google, such changes will become effective 30 days after they are posted, except to the extent that the changes apply to new functionality, or are required by applicable law, in which case they will be effective immediately. For clarity, changes to this Agreement do not result in changes to any Vendor Agreement.

(a) If Customer does not agree to the revised Agreement, Customer may stop using the Marketplace and Vendor Products under Section 6.2 (Cessation of Use). Customer's continued use of the Marketplace after such material change will constitute Customer's consent to such changes.

(b) If a change under this Section 5.2 has a material adverse impact on Customer during an active subscription term for a Subscription Product and is not a result of Google complying with a court order or applicable law, Customer may notify Google within thirty (30) days of the change that Customer objects to the change. Upon such notice, Customer will remain governed by the terms in effect immediately prior to the change until the end of the then-current subscription term.

5.3. To Fees. Customer acknowledges that Fees for Vendor Products may change upon 30 days’ notice by Google or Vendor, as applicable, provided that any Fee changes for Subscription Products will not become effective during any then-current subscription term.

6.1. Termination of Agreement. Either party may terminate this Agreement if the other party materially breaches this Agreement and does not cure such breach within 30 days of its receipt of written notice of the breach. If this Agreement is terminated, Customer will stop using all Vendor Products, unless Customer has a Vendor Agreement for its continued use of the Vendor Product, including all applicable payment, billing, and usage terms. If Google is the terminating party, Customer will be required to pay all Fees for Subscription Products for the remainder of the subscription terms for such products. If Customer is the terminating party, then (i) Google will provide to Customer a prorated refund of any Fees prepaid by Customer for the Subscription Product, and (ii) Customer’s obligation to pay additional Fees for Subscription Products will be relieved for the remaining portion of the subscription term.

6.2. Cessation of Use. Customer may stop using the Marketplace or any Vendor Product at any time, provided that Customer will be required to pay all Fees for Subscription Products for the remainder of the subscription terms for such products.

6.3. Removal or Termination of Subscription Products. Except as set forth in Section 6.1 (Termination of Agreement), Google may remove a Subscription Product from the Marketplace, terminate Customer’s subscription to a Subscription Product, or otherwise limit or revoke Customer’s access to a Subscription Product during Customer’s then-current subscription term only if:

(a) Google is no longer contractually permitted to offer the Subscription Product on the Marketplace or to Customer;

(b) Google is (i) requested to remove the Subscription Product from the Marketplace by the respective Vendor or (ii) informed by the Vendor that it will no longer provide the Subscription Product to Customer (e.g., for regulatory reasons); or

(c) Google determines that (i) the Subscription Product does not run on or was not deployed on Google Cloud Platform or (ii) continuing to provide the Subscription Product to Customer could create risk or liability for Google.

Google will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide (i) advance notice where practicable before taking any action under this Section 6.3 and (ii) at least six (6) months’ notice where practicable before taking any action pursuant to Section 6.3(a)-(b).

6.4. Fees for Removed Subscription Products. If Google takes any action under 6.3 for any reason other than Customer’s breach of the applicable Vendor Agreement before Customer’s subscription term for the Subscription Product has expired, then (i) Google will provide to Customer a prorated refund of any Fees prepaid by Customer for the Subscription Product, and (ii) Customer’s obligation to pay additional Fees for the Subscription Product will be relieved for the remaining portion of the subscription term.

6.5. Transition Assistance. Upon Customer’s request, Google will use reasonable efforts to provide transition assistance to facilitate Customer’s continued use of a Vendor Product after termination.

The confidentiality terms in Customer’s GCP Agreement will apply to Confidential Information exchanged under this Agreement. “Confidential Information” means information that one party (or an Affiliate) discloses to the other party under this Agreement, and which is marked as confidential or would normally under the circumstances be considered confidential information. It does not include information that is independently developed by the recipient, is rightfully given to the recipient by a third party without confidentiality obligations, or becomes public through no fault of the recipient.

Customer acknowledges and agrees that Google may share certain account and usage information related to its purchases and use of Vendor Products with the applicable Vendor.

Except as expressly stated in this Agreement, this Agreement does not grant either party any rights, implied or otherwise, to the other's content or any of the other's intellectual property. As between the parties, Customer retains all Intellectual Property Rights in Customer Data, and Google retains all Intellectual Property Rights in the Marketplace.

Except as expressly provided for in the Agreement, Google does not make and expressly disclaims to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law (a) any warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, statutory, or otherwise, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular use, title, noninfringement, or error-free or uninterrupted use of the Marketplace and (b) any representations or warranties regarding any Vendor Products, including any representations or warranties (i) related to the performance, functionality, or security of any Vendor Products or (ii) that any Vendor Product listings in the Marketplace are accurate or up-to-date. Google expressly disclaims any responsibility or liability related to a Vendor’s provision of Vendor Products (including any related technical support), description of Vendor Products, and any data shared with a Vendor in connection with this Agreement or a Vendor Product.

URL links made available via the Marketplace may allow Customer to leave the Marketplace website to go to sites and web pages not controlled by Google (“Linked Site(s)”). Google is not responsible for the Linked Sites (or any weblink or URL contained on them) in any manner, including related content and security or privacy practices. Any access Google provides to Linked Sites is done solely as a Customer convenience, and the inclusion of any link to a Linked Site does not imply endorsement by Google of the Linked Site.

11.1. Limitation on Indirect Liability. To the extent permitted by applicable law and subject to Section 11.3 (Unlimited Liabilities), neither party will have any Liability arising out of or relating to the Agreement for any (a) indirect, consequential, special, incidental, or punitive damages or (b) lost revenues, profits, savings, or goodwill.

Additional Terms for Agency Transactions

For Agency Transactions, the terms in this Appendix A will apply to the transaction in addition to the terms in the Agreement. 

To the extent there is a conflict between the terms stated in this Appendix and the provisions of the Agreement, the terms stated in this Appendix will prevail.

For Agency Transactions where both the Vendor and Customer are located in the United States, Google Payment Corp. (“GPC”), a subsidiary of Google LLC, will act as the agent of the Vendor for payment transactions.

1. Payment Authorization

Customer authorizes GPC to, in accordance with the payment terms in its GCP Agreement, submit charges (and, in the case of refunds, credits) to Customer’s agreed upon payment method. GPC receives and processes such transactions on behalf of Vendors, as the agent of the Vendor, through the appropriate payment network. Customer’s payment to Google and/or the Vendor for its purchase(s) is deemed completed upon receipt by GPC on behalf of Google or the Vendor, as applicable.

2. Settlement of Payment Transactions

GPC reserves the right to delay processing or settlement of payment transactions to Vendors, in the event Customer or the Vendor do not successfully complete Google’s onboarding and due-diligence process, including identity verification, or Google or GPC reasonably believe there is potentially suspicious, illegal or fraudulent activity related to Customer’s or a Vendor’s use of the Marketplace or a transaction on the Marketplace for Vendor Products. Neither Google nor its Affiliates have any liability to Customer for any delay in making settled funds available under this Section to the Vendor.

3. Disclaimer/Limitation of Liability

Customer agrees that Section 9 (Disclaimer) and Section 11 (Limitation of Liability) of this Agreement shall be deemed to apply to GPC in addition to Google with respect to transactions processed by GPC. This Section 3 (Disclaimer/Limitation of Liability) shall survive termination of the Agreement.

4. No Interest 

GPC will hold funds received from Customer’s payment method issuer or account-holding institution as the Vendor’s payment agent, pending transfer to the Vendor. Customer will not have access to funds in the process of transmission to the Vendor. Customer also will not earn interest on such funds, and the funds are not insured for Customer’s benefit by any government agency. Customer acknowledges that Google or its Affiliate may earn interest on such funds.

5. USA PATRIOT Act Notice 

To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each individual or business that opens an account or requests credit.
