What is Google Search?
Google Search is a fully-automated search engine operated by Google. It allows users to search for information on the internet by entering keywords or phrases.
How does Google Search work?
Google Search uses specific software (called web crawlers) to explore the web regularly and to find relevant pages to add to their index, which will determine what search results a user will get when using Google Search as a search engine.
Is it safe for children and young people?
Google enables anyone over 13 to set up their own Google Account. Users under 18 by default can only access SafeSearch, which filters out explicit content. In addition, parents and guardians can set up a Google account for any age child and can manage that account via Family Link (parental controls).
