I am very much not a lawyer, and while I work for Google, I do not work on this, and this is just my plain language reading of the docs.
When you look at the github repo for the gemini CLI:
https://github.com/google-gemini/gemini-cli/tree/main https://github.com/google-gemini/gemini-cli/tree/main
At the bottom it specifies that the terms of service are dependent on the underlying mechanism that the user chooses to use to fulfill the requests. You can use code assist, gemini API, or Vertex AI. My layperson's perspective is that it's positioned as a wrapper around another service, whose terms you already have accepted/enabled. I would imagine that is separate from the Gemini app, the settings for which you linked to.
Looking at my own settings, my searches on the gemini app appear, but none of my gemini API queries appear.
- tiahura 1y agoThanks for trying to clarify. However, as others pointed out, that link take you to here: https://developers.google.com/gemini-code-assist/resources/privacy-notice-gemini-code-assist-individuals https://developers.google.com/gemini-code-assist/resources/p... Which, at the bottom says: "If you don't want this data used to improve Google's machine learning models, you can opt out by following the steps in Set up Gemini Code Assist for individuals." and links to https://developers.google.com/gemini-code-assist/docs/set-up-gemini#read-privacy-notice https://developers.google.com/gemini-code-assist/docs/set-up.... That page says "You'll also see a link to the Gemini Code Assist for individuals privacy notice and privacy settings. This link opens a page where you can choose to opt out of allowing Google to use your data to develop and improve Google's machine learning models. These privacy settings are stored at the IDE level." The issue is that there is no IDE, this is the CLI and no such menu options exist.
- fhinkel 1y agoIt applies to Gemini CLI too. We've tried to clear up our docs, apologies for the confusion. https://github.com/google-gemini/gemini-cli/blob/main/docs/tos-privacy.md https://github.com/google-gemini/gemini-cli/blob/main/docs/t...
- tiahura 1y agoThanks, however I'm not sure I've got it. Are you saying the Gemini Apps Activity switch controls? Or, that if I download VS Code or Intelli J and make the change, it applies to the CLI? https://developers.google.com/gemini-code-assist/docs/set-up-gemini#read-privacy-notice https://developers.google.com/gemini-code-assist/docs/set-up... says "These privacy settings are stored at the IDE level."
