Google Workspace Changes

Data regions support is now available for the Gemini app.

The Gemini app now adheres to organization data regionalization requirements, allowing administrators to configure controls for EU and US storage and processing. These settings can be applied at the organizational unit (OU) level, helping customers meet internal, legal, regulatory, and data sovereignty requirements by controlling the geographical location of their data at rest.

New administrator controls for temporary chats and conversation deletion in the Gemini app.

Google is introducing two new administrator controls for the Gemini app (gemini.google.com) that allow end users to manage their own chat activity. Admins can now configure whether users can use temporary chats, which are not saved to history, and whether they can delete individual chats or their entire conversation history. These settings are enabled by default and can be managed at the domain, OU, or group level, while Google Vault retention rules will still be honored if configured.
