• Manage information that can be used from Google Search, Maps, YouTube, and other services that improve your Google experience. For example, you can enable certain settings such as web and app activity , which picks up the most relevant and fastest search results, or location history, which turns on Google Maps and Google Now for give advice for a faster return home.

A bit about “My Google Account”

The goal is to control and protect your account , and what could be better than providing the user with all the information it contains. If we know what we’re sticking with, we can close and open doors with access to total control and knowledge.

Connection and security

Here we can find out when was the last password change , whether we have enabled two-step verification or account recovery options such as secret question, phone or alternative mail.

The second category is to control which devices have accessed the account and their activity . The third category for connected apps and sites and have full control over them, since we can remove them here.

Personal information and confidentiality

All data relating to basic information, account history, ad settings , account overview and content control. Noteworthy is the possibility of search history and the sites you have visited locations.

Since the last option of content control We can even download the data and make a copy of it, even assign a person to download it in case we cannot manage it for a while.

Account Preferences

You Google Drive Storage, account deletion or certain services or accessibility are the options that we will find in this last category and that puts an end to everything that has to do with this new series of tools that will be useful to us for the management of our google account.

You can now access My google account .
