Google is defending its policy to allow third-party apps to access and share data from Gmail accounts, according to a letter made public Thursday.
Gmail, which has over 1.4 billion users globally, lets third-party developers integrate services into its email platform, such as trip planners and custom relationship management systems.
“Developers may share data with third parties so long as they are transparent with the users about how they are using the data,” Susan Molinari, VP of public policy and government affairs for the Americas at Google, said in the letter to Senators, which was obtained by CNNMoney.
