Anyone Receive This E Mail Regarding G Mail And Changes

[emmie]

Dear Em,


You received an email two weeks back to let you know that we are launching two new settings for Gmail, Chat and Meet to give you more control over your information and help support compliance requirements. With these settings, you can choose how your information is used in Gmail, Chat and Meet, and in other products across Google.


If you have already made a choice, please disregard this email.

unsure what to do, as it lists a whole load of links, none of which i can fathom, could post them on here, but not sure if it it points to my actual personal details which i wouldn't want.

The new settings are real enough Emmie.

If you want to turn them on or off there is guidance here.

am not great on this stuff mamy, am worried sick that if i do nothing i will lose my g mail - which would be a disaster,

[Buenchico]

It's a standard email that Google has sent out to all Gmail users, indirectly promoting their paid services such as Chat and Meet. I'm simply ignoring it. (I don't even use my Gmail account anyway. I've only got it for access to Google services, such as Youtube).

[Mamyalynne]

As Buen says just ignore.

[emmie]

have been worried sick, on top of everything else, as i wouldn't know how to set up another e mail account, so you say ignore it?

[emmie]

i use it for g mail, on laptop and phone.

[Bobbisox1]

Yes I did, I rarely use that email though anyway

[iluvmargie]

I have gmail and I am just going to ignore it. You won't lose your gmail.

I have also received a reminder as I ignored the initial email and must admit I am not sure what to do either. I do use gmail so will have a look at Mamy's link and decide best way forward. I am always wary of not giving too much information away.
