Google Cloud Marketplace Terms of Service - Google Cloud Platform Resellers
Last modified: December 13, 2023
These Google Cloud Marketplace Terms of Service (together, the "Agreement") are entered into by Google and the entity or person agreeing to these terms ("Partner") and govern Partner’s access to and use of (as applicable) the Marketplace and Vendor Products for resale to Customer (or, in the case of a GCP Distributor, to a Reseller for further resale to Customer). "Google" has the meaning given at https://cloud.google.com/terms/google-entity (“Contracting Entity Page”).
This Agreement is effective when a Partner purchases a Vendor Product on the Marketplace for resale to Customers (or, in the case of a GCP Distributor, to a Reseller for further resale to Customer) (the "Effective Date"). If you are accepting on behalf of Partner, you represent and warrant that (i) you have full legal authority to bind Partner to this Agreement; (ii) you have read and understand this Agreement; and (iii) you agree, on behalf of Partner, to this Agreement.
1. Scope of the Marketplace; Applicability of Agreement.
1.1. Use of Marketplace. Google publishes listings for both Vendor Products and Google Products on the Marketplace. Subject to this Agreement, Partner may access and use the Marketplace to purchase Vendor Products for resale only to Customers (or, in the case of a GCP Distributor, to a Reseller for further resale to Customer).
1.2. Product Listings.
1.2.1. Vendor Products. For transactions of Vendor Products on the Marketplace, Google will indicate at the time of sale whether Google is acting as the merchant and seller of record, or if Google or an Affiliate is acting as the Vendor’s agent, for that purchase. For transactions of Vendor Products for which Google or an Affiliate acts as Vendor’s agent for that purchase (“Agency Transaction(s)”), please see Appendix A for additional terms that apply to such transactions.
1.2.2. Google Products. For transactions of Google Products on the Marketplace, Google will be the merchant and seller of record for that purchase. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable product listing, Partner’s use and resale of Google Products are governed by the agreement under which Google has appointed Partner as a reseller and/or supplier of the applicable Google Products under the Program (“Reseller Agreement”) and not this Agreement. Additionally, the terms of the Reseller Agreement may be applied to transactions under this Agreement as specified in this Agreement.
1.3. Regional Versions; Public Sector. If Partner’s billing account is in EMEA, APAC, India, or the U.S. Public Sector, Section 14 (Regional and Public Sector Terms) specifies additional terms that apply.
2. Payment Terms and Discount.
2.1. Payment Terms. Partner will pay all Fees based on: (a) Partner’s purchase of Vendor Products for purposes of resale to Customer (or, in the case of a GCP Distributor, to a Reseller for further resale to Customer); and (b) Customer’s or Partner End User’s purchase and use of Vendor Products, as applicable. Fees for Vendor Products will be included in Partner’s invoice for Google Cloud Platform services. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Reseller Agreement, all invoicing and payment terms in the Reseller Agreement will apply to Partner’s purchase of Vendor Products for resale to Customers (or, in the case of a GCP Distributor, to a Reseller for further resale to Customer).
2.2. Discount. Partner may receive programmatic discount on Vendor Products (purchased through Marketplace) for resale to Customers (or, in the case of a GCP Distributor, to a Reseller for further resale to Customer), at Vendor’s discretion.
2.3. Program Incentives. No Program incentives, including (the following capitalized terms are as defined in the Program) Deal Registration and Deal Referral, the Partner Funding Program (formerly known as Partner Services Funding Program), the Marketing Incentive Program, and Marketing Development Services funds, will apply to transactions under this Agreement.
3. Partner Obligations.
3.1. Compliance. Partner will (a) ensure that Partner’s, any Customer’s, any Reseller’s, and any Partner End Users' use of the Marketplace complies with this Agreement and (b) promptly notify Google of any unauthorized use of, or access to, the Marketplace.
3.2. Third Party License Terms. Google or a Vendor may require Partner to accept a Vendor Agreement. Additionally, a Vendor Agreement will govern each Customer’s (or Reseller’s or Partner End User’s, as applicable) access to and use of the Vendor Products. Unless Google expressly agrees otherwise in writing, Partner will ensure that each Customer (or, as applicable, Reseller) is notified of and accepts the Vendor Agreement, with no alteration or amendment, before reselling the Vendor Products to that Customer (or, in the case of a GCP Distributor, to a Reseller for further resale to Customer). Partner will not accept (or allow any third party to accept) the Vendor Agreement on behalf of any Customer, except where Partner has been expressly authorized to do so by Customer. As applicable, Partner will ensure that Customers (or Resellers, as applicable) are notified and accept that access to and use of a BYOL Product is governed by the Vendor or third-party software license agreements associated with that BYOL Product.
3.3. Vendor Access to Partner Data. Partner will notify Customer and obtain Customer’s consent to the following:
Certain Vendor Products may require the Vendor to access Partner Data as related to the Customer in order to provide the Vendor Product, as described in the relevant product listing. By purchasing or enabling any such Vendor Product, Customer (or Partner) will be instructing Google (pursuant to the Cloud Data Processing Addendum as defined in the Reseller Agreement) to share Partner Data as related to the Customer with the Vendor of such Vendor Product in order for the Vendor to provide the Vendor Product and in connection with any technical support requests under Section 5 (Support for Vendor Products). Customer acknowledges that Google will have no further access to or control over any Partner Data once shared with the Vendor, that Vendor will not be a Subprocessor (as defined in the Cloud Data Processing Addendum as defined in the Reseller Agreement) in respect of Google’s sharing of Partner Data with the Vendor, and that Vendor’s access, use, storage, deletion, and processing of such Partner Data will be governed by a Vendor Agreement or other terms governing Vendor’s provision of the Vendor Product to Partner and thereby to Customer, and not this Agreement. For clarity, Google’s treatment of Partner Data will be governed by the Cloud Data Processing Addendum under the Reseller Agreement for as long as Google retains such Partner Data.
3.4. Restrictions. Partner will not, and will not allow Customers, Resellers, or Partner End Users to (a) copy, modify, or create a derivative work of the Marketplace or Vendor Products; (b) reverse engineer, decompile, translate, disassemble, or otherwise attempt to extract any or all of the source code of the Marketplace or Vendor Products (except to the extent such restriction is expressly prohibited by applicable law); (c) except as authorized in this Agreement, sell, resell, sublicense, transfer, or distribute any or all of the Marketplace or Vendor Products; or (d) access or use the Marketplace or Vendor Products in a manner intended to avoid incurring Fees or to circumvent usage limits or quotas. Any additional restrictions related to the use of Vendor Products are as set forth in the Vendor Agreement.
3.5. VM Product Deployment. Unless otherwise expressly stated in the Vendor Product listing, Partner, Customer, and Reseller may only deploy Vendor Products with a virtualization component in Google Cloud Platform instances managed by Partner, Reseller, or Customer. Vendor Products with a virtualization component may not be deployed outside of the Google Cloud Platform.
4. Marketplace TOS.
The Marketplace TOS will govern each Customer’s, Reseller’s, or Partner End User’s access to and use of the Marketplace, as applicable. Partner will ensure that each Customer or Reseller that directly accesses the Marketplace is notified of and accepts the Marketplace TOS, with no alteration or amendment, before the Customer or Reseller first logs into Marketplace. Partner will: (a) not accept (or allow any third party to accept) the Marketplace TOS on behalf of any Customer or Reseller; and (b) not accept (or allow any third party to accept) separate terms of service on behalf of any Customer or Reseller for use of other Google services; except where in each of the foregoing cases Partner has been expressly authorized to do so by the Customer or Reseller.
5. Support for Vendor Products.
5.1. Vendor Products Generally. Except as otherwise specified in Section 5.2 (Google Supported Products), any technical support for Vendor Products will be provided by the applicable Vendor on terms agreed to between Vendor and Customer, Vendor and Reseller, or Vendor and Partner, as applicable. Subject to Section 5.2 (Google Supported Products), Google will not be responsible or liable for any technical support to Partner, Reseller, or Customer for any Vendor Products, including any security updates or patches provided by Vendor.
5.2. Google Supported Products. For certain Vendor Products, as described in the applicable product listing page, Google (and not the Vendor) will provide all frontline technical support (“Google Supported Products”). In order to receive access to technical support for Google Supported Products, Partner must purchase, or as applicable, Partner must resell to Customer (or, in the case of a GCP Distributor, to a Reseller for further resale to Customer), a Google-supplied technical support package for Google Cloud Platform pursuant to the Reseller Agreement. Google will provide Partner, Reseller, or Customer with the same level of technical support for Google Supported Products that Partner has purchased, or as applicable, resold to Customer (or, in the case of a GCP Distributor, to a Reseller for further resale to Customer), for Google Cloud Platform (e.g., Development, Production or Enterprise level support) as described at TSS Guidelines.
6. Modifications.
6.1. To the Marketplace. Google may make commercially reasonable updates to the Marketplace from time to time. Google will notify Partner of any material changes to the Marketplace.
6.2. To the Agreement. Google may make changes to this Agreement (including the URL Terms) from time to time. Google will provide notice of the changes via posting updates to the Agreement at https://cloud.google.com/terms/marketplace/launcher (or any successor URL where this Agreement may be posted), and unless otherwise noted by Google, such changes will become effective 30 days after they are posted, except to the extent that the changes apply to new functionality, or are required by applicable law, in which case they will be effective immediately. For clarity, changes to this Agreement do not result in changes to any Vendor Agreement.
(a) If Partner does not agree to the revised Agreement, Partner may stop using the Marketplace to resell the applicable Vendor Products at any time under Section 7.2 (Cessation of Use). Partner’s continued use of the Marketplace after such material change will constitute Partner’s consent to such changes.
(b) If a change under this Section 6.2 has a material adverse impact on Partner during an active subscription term for a Subscription Product and is not a result of Google complying with a court order or applicable law, Partner may notify Google within sixty (60) days of the change that Partner objects to the change. Upon such notice, Partner will remain governed by the terms in effect immediately prior to the change until the end of the then-current subscription term.
6.3. To Fees. Partner acknowledges that Fees for Vendor Products may change upon 30 days’ notice by Google or Vendor, as applicable, provided that any Fee changes for Subscription Products will not become effective during any then-current subscription term.
7. Termination; Cessation of Use; Removal and Termination of Subscription Products.
7.1. Termination of Agreement. Either party may terminate this Agreement if the other party materially breaches this Agreement and does not cure such breach within 30 days of its receipt of written notice of the breach. If this Agreement is terminated, Partner must cease resale of the applicable Vendor Products and must have its Customer cease use of the applicable Vendor Products, unless its Customer has a Vendor Agreement for its continued use of the Vendor Product, including all applicable payment, billing, and usage terms. If Google is the terminating party, Partner will be required to pay all Fees for Subscription Products for the remainder of the subscription terms for such products. If Partner is the terminating party, then (i) Google will provide to Partner a prorated refund of any Fees prepaid by Partner for the Subscription Product, and (ii) Partner’s obligation to pay additional Fees for Subscription Products will be relieved for the remaining portion of the subscription term.
7.2. Cessation of Use. Partner may stop using the Marketplace to resell the Vendor Products at any time, provided that Partner will be required to pay all Fees for Subscription Products for the remainder of the subscription terms for such products.
7.3. Removal or Termination of Subscription Products. Except as set forth in Section 7.1 (Termination of Agreement), Google may remove a Subscription Product from the Marketplace, terminate Partner’s subscription to a Subscription Product, or otherwise limit or revoke Partner’s, Reseller’s, Customer’s, and Partner End User’s access to a Subscription Product during the then-current subscription term only if:
(a) Google is no longer contractually permitted to offer the Subscription Product on the Marketplace or to Partner, Reseller, or Customer;
(b) Google is (i) requested to remove the Subscription Product from the Marketplace by the respective Vendor or (ii) informed by the Vendor that it will no longer provide the Subscription Product to Partner, Reseller, or Customer (e.g., for regulatory reasons); or
(c) Google determines that (i) the Subscription Product does not run on or was not deployed on Google Cloud Platform or (ii) continuing to provide the Subscription Product to Partner, Reseller, or Customer could create risk or liability for Google.
Google will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide (i) advance notice where practicable before taking any action under this Section 6.3 and (ii) at least six (6) months’ notice where practicable before taking any action pursuant to Section 7.3(a)-(b).
7.4. Fees for Removed Subscription Products. If Google takes any action under 7.3 for any reason other than Partner, Reseller, or Customer’s breach of the applicable Vendor Agreement before the subscription term for the Subscription Product has expired, then (i) Google will provide to Partner a prorated refund of any Fees prepaid by Partner for the Subscription Product, and (ii) Partner’s obligation to pay additional Fees for the Subscription Product will be relieved for the remaining portion of the subscription term.
7.5. Transition Assistance. Upon Partner’s request, Google will use reasonable efforts to assist Partner to provide transition assistance to facilitate Customer’s continued use of a Vendor Product after termination.
8. Confidential Information.
The confidentiality terms in Partner’s Reseller Agreement will apply to Confidential Information exchanged under this Agreement. “Confidential Information” means information that one party (or an Affiliate) discloses to the other party under this Agreement, and which is marked as confidential or would normally under the circumstances be considered confidential information. It does not include information that is independently developed by the recipient, is rightfully given to the recipient by a third party without confidentiality obligations, or becomes public through no fault of the recipient. Partner acknowledges and agrees that Google may share certain account and usage information related to its purchases and Customer’s use of Vendor Products with the applicable Vendor.
9. Intellectual Property Rights.
Except as expressly stated in this Agreement, this Agreement does not grant either party any rights, implied or otherwise, to the other's content or any of the other's intellectual property. As between the parties, Partner retains all Intellectual Property Rights in Partner Data, and Google retains all Intellectual Property Rights in the Marketplace.

Except as expressly provided for in this Agreement, Google does not make and expressly disclaims to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law (a) any warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, statutory, or otherwise, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular use, title, noninfringement, or error-free or uninterrupted use of the Marketplace and (b) any representations or warranties regarding any Vendor Products, including any representations or warranties (i) related to the performance, functionality, or security of any Vendor Products or (ii) that any Vendor Product listings in the Marketplace are accurate or up-to-date.

Appendix A
Additional Terms for Agency Transactions
For Agency Transactions, the terms in this Appendix A will apply to the transaction in addition to the terms in the Agreement.
To the extent there is a conflict between the terms stated in this Appendix and the provisions of the Agreement, the terms stated on in this Appendix will prevail.
For Agency Transactions where both the Vendor and Partner are located in the United States, Google Payment Corp. (“GPC”), a subsidiary of Google LLC, will act as the agent of the Vendor for payment transactions.
1. Payment Authorization
Partner authorizes GPC to, in accordance with the payment terms in its GCP Agreement, submit charges (and, in the case of refunds, credits) to Partner’s agreed upon payment method. GPC receives and processes such transactions on behalf of Vendors, as the agent of the Vendor, through the appropriate payment network. Partner’s payment to Google and/or the Vendor for its purchase(s) is deemed completed upon receipt by GPC on behalf of Google or the Vendor, as applicable.
2. Settlement of Payment Transactions
GPC reserves the right to delay processing or settlement of payment transactions to Vendors, in the event Partner or the Vendor do not successfully complete Google’s onboarding and due-diligence process, including identity verification, or Google or GPC reasonably believe there is potentially suspicious, illegal or fraudulent activity related to Partner’s, Reseller’s, or a Vendor’s use of the Marketplace or a transaction on the Marketplace for Vendor Products. Neither Google nor its Affiliates have any liability to Partner for any delay in making settled funds available under this Section to the Vendor.
3. Disclaimer/Limitation of Liability
Partner agrees that Section 10 (Disclaimer) and Section 12 (Limitation of Liability) of this Agreement shall be deemed to apply to GPC in addition to Google with respect to transactions processed by GPC. This Section 3 (Disclaimer/Limitation of Liability) shall survive termination of the Agreement.
4. No Interest
GPC will hold funds received from Partner’s payment method issuer or account-holding institution as the Vendor’s payment agent, pending transfer to the Vendor. Partner will not have access to funds in the process of transmission to the Vendor. Partner also will not earn interest on such funds, and the funds are not insured for Partner’s benefit by any government agency. Partner acknowledges that Google or its Affiliate may earn interest on such funds.
5. USA PATRIOT Act Notice
To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each individual or business that opens an account or requests credit.
