Google announced that user safety is the company’s priority.

“The practice of automatic processing of data has led to erroneous speculation about the fact that Google “reads” your emails. For the sake of clarity, no one at Google reads your messages, except in very rare cases, when you yourself are asking us and give consent, or when there is a need, for safety reasons, for example, in the case of investigation of errors or abuses” — quoted the Director of security of the company, Susan Frey (Suzanne Frey) to the company.

Frey stressed that the company does not use electronic communications for advertising purposes and does not receive a fee for providing developers access to the API service.
