Re: Grand Jury Subpoena dated October 23, 2019 (Google Ref. No. 3011708)¶
Dear Assistant U.S. Attorney¶
Pursuant to the Grand Jury Subpoena issued in the above-referenced matter, we have conducted a diligent search for documents and information accessible on Google’s systems that are responsive to your request. Our response is made in accordance with state and federal law, including the Electronic Communications Privacy Act. See 18 U.S.C. §2701 et seq.¶
Accompanying this letter is responsive information to the extent reasonably accessible from our system associated with the Google account(s),¶
as specified in the Grand Jury Subpoena. We have also included a signed Certificate of Authenticity which includes a list of hash values that correspond to each file contained in the production. Google may not retain a copy of this production but does endeavor to keep a list of the files and their respective hash values. To the extent any document provided herein contains information exceeding the scope of your request, protected from disclosure or otherwise not subject to production, if at all, we have redacted such information or removed such data fields.¶
After a diligent search and reasonable inquiry, we have found no records for the sign-in phone number(s) . The primary account identifier for most Google services is an email address, not a phone number.¶
Google objects and has not produced records associated with Google accounts for which you have not expressly provided an account identifier or which derive from records or other information of the subject account(s) that you seek to have Google search. Because this exceeds the scope of 18 U.S.C. §2703(c)(2), Google requires a court order pursuant to 18 U.S.C. §2703(d) based on specific and articulable facts showing that the account(s) linked by cookies or other identifiers is relevant and material to your investigation for the duration of the time period requested.¶
Please note that Google Pay service data is under the control of Google Payment Corporation. Any request for such data must be specifically addressed to Google Payment Corporation and can be served through the email address googlepayments@google.com.¶
For a Google Custodian of Records, we will require a subpoena and confirmation from you of the time and date of the appearance, the scope of testimony, any Google Reference¶

Number(s) associated with the case, and the travel for the appearance at least one week in advance in order to identify, make the appropriate plans for, and prepare a custodian for trial.¶
Finally, in accordance with Section 2706 of the Electronic Communications Privacy Act, Google may request reimbursement for reasonable costs incurred in processing your request.¶
