"We will increase data access for researchers looking to understand more about how Google Search, YouTube, Google Maps, Google Play and Shopping work in practice, and conducting research related to understanding systemic content risks in the EU," she said.
It will roll out a new Transparency Center for people to access information about its policies on a product-by-product basis.
