Sanjay Gupta, the Country Manager & Vice President of Google India has commented that at Google, the safety of the users is their core goal. Google has designed their products in a way to ensure the security of the user and in a way that the user should be in control of their own information. He has also emphasised the fact that in this way they have been able to build up the trust of hundreds of millions of Indians on Google products.
