Service Description
Expand Data provides two services. These Terms apply to both.
Expand Data – Locations (Google Sheets add-on)
A bulk address expansion service that turns each address in your spreadsheet into structured location data (104 data columns: geocoding, USPS deliverability, property, environmental, commercial, and mobility data), retrieved live from Google Maps Platform APIs and written into a new sheet in your workbook. The add-on contains no AI — every value is sourced from Google APIs at the time you run.
Location Report (single-address PDF)
A one-time purchase: a location report for a single address, delivered as a PDF by email. The report combines Google Maps Platform data with AI-generated narrative analysis (Google Vertex AI / Gemini). AI-generated content is provided for informational purposes and should be reviewed and validated by you.
Shared Service Features:
- Results delivered to your spreadsheet (add-on) or your email (report)
- Job rows retained about 48 hours for delivery and recovery; results may be cached up to 30 days as permitted by Google's terms
- Exact pricing shown before you confirm — we never charge above the estimate you saw
Google Maps Content
Our services use Google Maps Platform. By using them, you also agree to be bound by the Google Terms of Service, and the Google Privacy Policy applies to Google's handling of that data.
