D. The customer.
When customer data is uploaded to Google Cloud, the customer retains ownership of the data. Google provides the infrastructure, services, and tools for storing, processing, and managing the data, but the customer maintains full control over their data. Google acts as a data processor on behalf of the customer, and it is governed by the terms outlined in the Google Cloud Terms of Service and Data Processing Agreement (DPA), which specify that the customer owns their data.
Why the other options are incorrect:
A. A third party: This is incorrect because the customer, not a third party, owns the data. Google does not take ownership of the data once it is uploaded, and it is not shared with third parties unless specified in the customer’s agreement or as part of a service provided.
B. The customer and Google share ownership: This is incorrect because ownership of the data remains entirely with the customer. Google’s role is to provide the infrastructure and services to manage and process the data, but it does not share ownership of the data.
C. Google: This is incorrect because Google does not own the data uploaded by the customer. Google provides the cloud platform, but the ownership of the data stays with the customer, who has full control over its use, processing, and deletion.
