This deed is a plain-language summary. It is not the licence and has no independent effect; the legal code below is the licence.
A participant in this conversation (the Licensor) grants a limited licence over their contributions — to the extent they hold rights in them — and reserves all other rights. Nobody is asked to accept or sign anything. Note carefully: this licence is not a confidentiality agreement, and it does not ask anyone to keep anything confidential. Its conditions limit what the Licensor has licensed — nothing more.
You may — record the conversation; transcribe it; take notes; make summaries for a participant's own reference; retain the record; quote the contributions internally among those present. (The Ordinary Conversational Uses.)
The licence is granted on condition that:
No AI training — the Record and the Contributions are not licensed for training or fine-tuning AI or machine-learning models.
No derivatives — the licence does not cover making derivative works from the Record or the Contributions.
No redistribution — the licence does not cover providing the Record to anyone beyond Those Present in the Conversation.
No use in proceedings — the licence does not cover use of the Record in legal or regulatory proceedings without the Licensor's prior consent. This never limits disclosure or use required by law.
A use that does not observe a condition is simply not licensed.
Notices — this licence never restricts uses the law permits without the Licensor's permission (fair use, fair dealing, statutory exceptions); it operates only to the extent the Licensor holds rights in the material; it yields to superior written agreements to the extent of conflict; it never limits disclosure required by law, court order, or regulation; each recipient is licensed directly by the Licensor. All other rights reserved.
