Google Maps Photos and Videos Policy

Images and videos uploaded to Google Maps must follow the Maps terms of service: maps.google.com/help/terms_maps.html.

We reserve the right to both remove photographs and videos that violate our content policy, and suspend business owners who upload such media. Photos or videos that violate our content policy might contain:

• Illegal content

• Invasion of privacy

Photos that are uploaded to Google+ Local pages should also be relevant to the business represented by the page. Specifically they should:

• Not be merely text, unless it is relevant to the place. For example, the menu of a restaurant or a photo of the storefront with large fonts would be permitted.
• Not be copyrighted
• Not be screenshots
• Be of respectable quality. Photos that are overly blurry, noisy, rotated, or too dark may be removed.
