ML KIT Terms of Service
The following terms apply to your use of ML Kit APIs. These terms incorporate
and are subject to the Google APIs Terms of Service.
General Terms
For purposes of these terms, machine learning models will be considered
related software.
ML Kit APIs run on-device. When using the ML Kit APIs, you may not reverse
engineer or attempt to extract the source code or any related software, except
to the extent that this restriction is expressly prohibited by applicable law.
Privacy
When you use ML Kit APIs, processing of the input data (e.g. images, video,
text) fully happens on-device, and ML Kit does not send that data to Google
servers. As a result, you can use our APIs for processing data that should not
leave the device.
The ML Kit APIs may contact Google servers from time to time in order to receive
things like bug fixes, updated models and hardware accelerator compatibility
information. The ML Kit APIs also send metrics about the performance and
utilization of the APIs in your app to Google. Google uses this metrics data to
measure performance, debug, maintain and improve the APIs, and detect misuse or
abuse, as further described in our
Privacy Policy.
You are responsible for informing users of your app about Google’s processing of
ML Kit metrics data as required by applicable law.
