All rights reserved except as expressly granted below.

1. Definitions

"Software" means the original Wordless-owned source code, documentation,
visual assets, and other materials distributed with this license, including
modifications and derivative works of those materials.

"Commercial Use" means use of the Software, directly or indirectly, for
commercial advantage or monetary compensation. Commercial Use includes, but
is not limited to:

  a. selling, licensing, sublicensing, or renting the Software;

     service, software-as-a-service offering, or managed service;
  c. distributing or bundling the Software with a paid product or service;
  d. using the Software to provide services to customers for compensation; or
  e. other use whose principal purpose is to generate revenue or support a

2. Non-Commercial License Grant

Subject to the terms of this license, the copyright holders grant you a
worldwide, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, royalty-free license to
use, reproduce, study, and modify the Software solely for:

  a. personal use;
  b. education or academic research;
  c. evaluation and testing; and

3. Non-Commercial Redistribution

You may redistribute copies of the Software, with or without modifications,
only for non-commercial purposes, provided that you:

  b. clearly state significant modifications you made;
  c. do not state or imply endorsement by Wordless or its contributors; and

4. Commercial Use Requires Authorization

No license is granted for Commercial Use. Any Commercial Use requires a
separate prior written agreement from the copyright holders. To request
commercial authorization, contact the maintainers through the official
Wordless repository at:

https://github.com/Austin-Patrician/Wordless/issues

Opening a request does not itself grant authorization. Authorization is valid
only when provided in a separate written agreement by an authorized copyright
holder.

5. Third-Party Components

This license applies only to materials owned by the Wordless copyright
holders. Third-party and upstream components, including components identified
in UPSTREAM.md, third_party directories, package metadata, source headers, or
other notice files, remain governed by their respective licenses. Nothing in
this license restricts rights granted under those third-party licenses.

6. Trademarks

This license grants no rights to use the names, logos, trademarks, or service
marks of Wordless or its contributors, except as reasonably necessary to
describe the origin of an unmodified copy of the Software.

7. Compliance and Termination

Your rights under this license terminate automatically if you breach any of
its terms. Upon termination, you must stop using and distributing the Software
and destroy copies in your possession or control, except where retention is
required by law. Rights may be reinstated only through express written
permission from the copyright holders.

8. Disclaimer of Warranty

THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED "AS IS", WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR
IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY,
FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. YOU BEAR ALL
RISK ARISING FROM USE OF THE SOFTWARE.

9. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL THE COPYRIGHT
HOLDERS OR CONTRIBUTORS BE LIABLE FOR ANY CLAIM, DAMAGES, OR OTHER LIABILITY,
WHETHER IN AN ACTION OF CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE, ARISING FROM, OUT OF, OR
IN CONNECTION WITH THE SOFTWARE OR THE USE OF OR OTHER DEALINGS IN THE
SOFTWARE.

10. No Open-Source Representation

This is a source-available license with a commercial-use restriction. It is
not an open-source license as defined by the Open Source Initiative.
