W3PATTERNS VERIFIER STARTER KIT LICENSE

Copyright (c) 2026 W3Patterns. All rights reserved.

This license applies only to the materials included in the W3Patterns Verifier
Starter Kit. It does not apply to BRS-Core or any other W3Patterns product.

1. Starter Kit permission

Subject to the restrictions below, W3Patterns grants each recipient a
non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free permission to download, reproduce, and
use the W3Patterns Verifier Starter Kit for education, evaluation, internal
business purposes, and development of business verifiers.

2. Example verifier code

Recipients may use, copy, and modify the included example verifier code as the
basis for their own business verifiers. Verifiers created or derived from the
examples may be used without purchasing BRS-Core and may be distributed by
their authors, including as source code or as part of the authors' own systems,
subject to this license and any applicable third-party rights.

3. BRS-Core not included or licensed

The Starter Kit does not include BRS-Core, its exporter, or its runtime. No
license to BRS-Core is granted by this license. Acquisition or use of BRS-Core
is governed separately by the applicable W3Patterns commercial license.

4. Branding and redistribution restrictions

This license does not grant permission to use W3Patterns names, trademarks,
logos, trade dress, or product branding as branding for another party's
product or service. A recipient may make truthful nominative references to
W3Patterns and the source of the example verifier code.

The Starter Kit, substantially as received, may not be repackaged, marketed,
licensed, or sold as a competing verifier starter kit, training kit, template
product, or substantially similar commercial offering. This restriction does
not prevent distribution of a recipient's own business verifiers created from
the included examples.

5. Notices

Redistributions of modified example verifier code must preserve applicable
copyright and license notices and must not imply endorsement, sponsorship, or
certification by W3Patterns.

6. No warranty

THE STARTER KIT AND INCLUDED EXAMPLES ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE,"
WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF
MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND
NON-INFRINGEMENT. W3PATTERNS DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE STARTER KIT WILL BE
ERROR-FREE, SECURE, OR SUITABLE FOR A PARTICULAR BUSINESS PROCESS.

7. Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, W3PATTERNS AND ITS OWNERS,
EMPLOYEES, CONTRACTORS, AND AFFILIATES WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT,
INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY
LOSS OF DATA, PROFITS, REVENUE, BUSINESS, OR GOODWILL, ARISING FROM OR RELATED
TO THE STARTER KIT, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE AGGREGATE LIABILITY OF
W3PATTERNS ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THE STARTER KIT WILL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT
PAID BY THE RECIPIENT FOR THE STARTER KIT.

8. Compliance and termination

Recipients are responsible for complying with applicable law and for reviewing
their verifiers before use against production systems. The permissions granted
by this license terminate automatically upon material breach. Upon termination,
the recipient must stop distributing the Starter Kit and remove unauthorized
uses of W3Patterns branding. Rights in independently created business logic
that do not depend on W3Patterns materials are unaffected.

9. Reservation of rights

W3Patterns reserves all rights not expressly granted under this license.
