These Service Specific Terms are incorporated into the
agreement under which Google has agreed to provide
Google Cloud Platform and SecOps Services (as described at
https://cloud.google.com/terms/services)
to Customer (the “Agreement”). If the Agreement authorizes you to resell
or supply Google Cloud Platform under a Google Cloud partner or reseller
program, then except for in the section entitled “Partner-Specific Terms”,
all references to Customer in the Service Specific Terms refer to you
(“Partner” or “Reseller”, as used in the Agreement), and all references
to Customer Data in the Service Specific Terms mean Partner Data.
If you are accessing the Services as a customer of an unaffiliated Google
Cloud reseller, then Section 14 (Resold Customers) of the General Service
Terms applies to you. Capitalized terms used but not defined in the Service
Specific Terms have the meaning given to them in the Agreement.
General Definitions.

the country of the selected Region or within the country
