In computing, Google Dashboard lets users of the World Wide Web view and manage personal data collected about them by Google Inc. With an account, Google Dashboard allows users to have summary view of Gmail, YouTube, Google Docs, and more. Once logged in, it summarizes data for each product the user use and provides with direct links to different products. Also have the ability to set preferences for personal account products. To access, sign into Google account with username and password[1]. Once signed in, select Google account settings options in top right corner and then click on the Dashboard link titled View data stored with this account. After verifying account password, users will be able to view Dashboard organized according to products of use. From Dashboard, users will be able to view data associated with account. Only information that is shared with Google Dashboard is information generated while logged in to account. All data in Dashboard is considered private unless settings are changed[2]. Google allows the user control of all the information that they provide and allows the data submitted to be purged from each app. As Google develops new products, the settings and data can always be found in Google’s Dashboard.

Some applications link to new sections, while other settings stay within the page. The user also has access, from the dashboard, to settings they may not have known existed. Two-step verification is an example of this, which requires a verification code to be entered that is sent to the user’s phone when logging into a new machine and every-time cookies are cleaned.

Two step verification, search history, location history, preferences are available for all the applications they provide, and hundreds more settings can be located for each individual application.
