RCS chats Terms of Service

By using RCS chats from Google, you agree to the Google Terms of Service, Google Privacy Policy and these RCS chats terms (collectively, the 'Terms of Service'). RCS chats allow you to message others at their telephone numbers, so messages will go through Google and, in some cases, through other service providers (like operators or other messaging apps) to reach those telephone numbers. You agree that your device and your contacts' devices may occasionally be checked for RCS capabilities to ensure that you can receive RCS chats. Google may occasionally exchange your device information (including device identifiers or SIM card information) with your network operator to verify your telephone number (SMS charges may apply) and to provide RCS chats. You may incur data charges in connection with the use of RCS chats. These Terms of Service do not apply to any features and services provided by your network operator (e.g. operator calling and messaging, including SMS and MMS). You can discontinue your use of RCS chats by turning off this setting in Messages by Google.

RCS chats are provided by, and you're contracting with, Jibe Mobile, Inc., located at 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. If your telephone number country code is from the European Economic Area or Switzerland, then RCS chats are provided by, and you're contracting with, Jibe Mobile Limited, located at 70 Sir John Rogerson's Quay, Dublin 2, Ireland, in which case this Terms Summary applies.
