# Project NOMAD Creator Pack License
**Version 1.0**  ·  License ID: `nomad-creator-pack-1.0`
> **DRAFT — pending legal review.** This document is a starting point drafted for

> terms below describe the intended arrangement; have counsel review and finalize
> before relying on it. Nothing here is a binding offer until finalized.
---
## 1. What this covers
This license governs **Creator Pack content** — the curated video collections
(and their titles, descriptions, thumbnails, and packaging) distributed through
Project NOMAD as "Creator Packs." It does **not** cover the Project NOMAD
software itself, which is licensed separately under Apache License 2.0. Where the
two ever appear to conflict, the Apache 2.0 license governs the software and this
license governs the pack content.
## 2. Ownership
Each Creator retains all copyright and other rights in their own videos and
associated materials. Distribution through Project NOMAD does not transfer
ownership. "Creator" means the individual or organization whose content a pack
contains (for example, Crosstalk Solutions or Project NOMAD).
## 3. Grant to Project NOMAD
Each Creator grants Project NOMAD (Crosstalk Solutions, LLC) a non-exclusive,
revocable right to reproduce, package, host, and distribute their Creator Pack
**through the official Project NOMAD distribution channel only**. This grant does
not permit Project NOMAD to sublicense the content for redistribution outside
that official channel.
## 4. License to end users
Subject to these terms, an end user who installs a Creator Pack on their own
Project NOMAD server is granted a **personal, non-commercial, non-transferable,
non-exclusive** license to store and view that pack's content offline on their
own device(s) for their own use and that of their household or immediate
organization.
## 5. Restrictions
Except as expressly permitted above, you may **not**:
1. **Redistribute or re-host** any Creator Pack or its contents — including
copying pack files to another server, mirror, CDN, bucket, torrent, or file
share, or making them available for download by others.
2. **Bundle or ship** Creator Pack content with any fork, derivative, or
third-party distribution of Project NOMAD or any other product.
3. **Serve** Creator Pack content from any distribution channel other than the
official Project NOMAD channel, or circumvent the entitlement controls that
gate access to it.
4. **Sell, rent, sublicense, or commercially exploit** the content, or use it to
train machine-learning models.
5. **Remove or alter** creator branding, attribution, or license notices.
For clarity: the Apache 2.0 license on the Project NOMAD **software** permits
forking the software, but it grants **no rights** to the Creator Pack **content**,
which remains governed exclusively by this license. A fork may not distribute or
serve Creator Packs.
## 6. Termination
This license terminates automatically if you breach it, and Project NOMAD or a
Creator may revoke it at any time. On termination you must stop using and delete
the affected Creator Pack content. Sections 2, 5, 7, and 8 survive termination.
## 7. No warranty
Creator Pack content is provided **"as is," without warranty of any kind**,
express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose,
and non-infringement.
## 8. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, neither Project NOMAD, Crosstalk
Solutions, LLC, nor any Creator is liable for any indirect, incidental, special,
consequential, or punitive damages arising from the Creator Pack content or this
license.
