# Inherited tokenizer terms

This package contains tokenizer material inherited through Vela and mmBERT from the Gemma tokenizer. This file preserves the applicable upstream conditions; it does not relicense Google's material under Apache-2.0 or assert that Decision's separately trained encoder weights are Gemma weights.

As a condition of using or redistributing the included Gemma-origin material, you must comply with the [Gemma Terms of Use](GEMMA_TERMS.html), including Section 3.2 and the [Gemma Prohibited Use Policy](GEMMA_PROHIBITED_USE_POLICY.html), which are incorporated into these terms. You must not use, or permit others to use, that material in violation of those restrictions or applicable law. On further distribution, provide recipients these terms and Google's complete agreement and preserve the accompanying `Notice`. Prominently identify any modifications to covered files. Nothing in the project's Apache-2.0 license removes these obligations or grants rights to Google trademarks.

The authoritative sources are [Google's Terms](https://ai.google.dev/gemma/terms) and [Google's policy](https://ai.google.dev/gemma/prohibited_use_policy). The accompanying copies identify their retrieval date. The current agreement still includes Gemma 2; the separate Gemma 4 license does not replace it for this inherited tokenizer.
