Use Looker Studio with the Google Cloud Platform Agreement

Note: This article applies only to users of the no-cost version of Looker Studio. If your organization is using Looker Studio Pro, then you are already governed by the Google Cloud Platform Agreement.

Administrators can choose to have their Google Cloud Platform Agreement govern their use of Looker Studio on behalf of their organization. Once you have chosen to have the Google Cloud Platform Agreement govern your use of Looker Studio for your organization, users in your organization will not need to sign the terms when they start using Looker Studio. For customers with HIPAA compliance needs, the Google Cloud Platform Business Associate Agreement covers Looker Studio.
