Dear,

I have a question regarding the terms of service for the free Google
API. I found the following text in the terms of service:

---------------------------------------------
17. Advertisements
17.1 Some of the Services are supported by advertising revenue and may
display advertisements and promotions. These advertisements may be
targeted to the content of information stored on the Services, queries
made through the Services or other information.
17.2 The manner, mode and extent of advertising by Google on the
Services are subject to change without specific notice to you.
17.3 In consideration for Google granting you access to and use of the
Services, you agree that Google may place such advertising on the
Services.
---------------------------------------------

Elsewhere on the site i found this text:
---------------------------------------------
The Maps API does not include advertising. If we ever decide to change
this policy, we will give you at least 90 days notice via the
announcements lists.
---------------------------------------------

There is a distinction between the Maps API, which doesn't include
advertising, and "some of the services". Can you tell me which of the
service these are and whether these are essential services to be able
to use the free API?

Thanks for your time!

kind regards
