Health is personal
The right information at the right time—whether it's a reliable answer to a health question or a real-time alert on your watch—can be incredibly powerful. That’s why we are constantly finding new ways to meet people where they are on their health and wellness journey, whether that’s through Search, YouTube, or our wearables and other devices. This is all designed with privacy and security as a primary pillar to respect your health information.
