Hi Jim - I take it you're happy with GoodSync? Are you using the free version?

I like GoodSync a lot. I am using the paid version, but not the business version.

That means everything you downloaded in GoogleSync is now owned by Google.

Am I sure I like GoodSync? Yes.

Show me a link to where "everything you download in google is owned by Google.inc" is true for Google Workspace. I don't remember seeing that. It doesn't make much sense, given all the big companies that use Google Workspace.

Google says: has written:

As between the parties, Customer retains all Intellectual Property Rights in Customer Data, and Google retains all Intellectual Property Rights in the Services.

Are you sure you mean "download"?

Downloaded?

It was couple of years ago in Gmail agreement, but I don't see it in workspace.google.com/terms/premier_terms.html because it is too long and too complicated to understand for a customer (why?).

Are you saying you don't see it because the document is too long and complicated for you to understand?

What's so complicated about this:

Google has written:

AlainCh2 can one also use his domain name here?
Feel free to comment, but thanks to everyone.

I answer two questions with one post.
In Zonerama > eu.zonerama.com/ that's the raw URL to access it
you can create your own gallery... and sub galleries... then you'll upload photos from wherever you want.
That's not for storage but only for a permanent place showing pictures and it gives you a photo's presence on the web for free.

For that reason, it doesn't depend on what system you are using: Linux, Microsoft, Apple, Android, IOS.

I store on Dropbox 120€/y = 2TB for whatever I need to reach online.

The Computer manages 32G Ram and has 2x M.2 1Tb (Samsung 980PRO)
That content will be FileSynced for free twice a day on the local HDD. (freefilesync.org/ )

2x 8TB HHD get all the working load and the archived files - one batch FileSync daily with the other
- When I will need more I will Add a couple of HDDs or replace them with bigger HDDs
( I got that couple of >Toshiba 8TB - Refurb< for 150€ - they'll last me some )
- No NAS no RAID >KIS<

As for using my own domain name:
I never explored that option and don't even know if it is or it isn't possible, sorry.

I have my own domain and my own site, but nothing connects that presence to my Zonerama Gallery, nor do I intend to connect them.
