1. WHAT THE LICENCE COVERS

This toolkit, its cards, matrices, cases, diagrams, taxonomies, decision
models and the order it gives them form a work protected by copyright.

The name Agentic Commerce Framework(R), the acronym ACF(R) and the associated
distinctive signs are registered trademarks. Making the toolkit available
transfers no right over those trademarks.

teachers, students and researchers, for:

  . reading, consulting and downloading;
  . teaching, training and non-commercial academic work;
  . workshops, case studies and internal exercises;
  . quoting limited extracts, with clear attribution to the Agentic Commerce
    Framework(R).

A teacher or an institution may pass the whole file, unmodified and free of
charge, to their students, teachers and staff, on a closed course space or
within an identified course, provided the document stays complete and keeps
its version and these terms.

Any use keeps the authorship, version and intellectual property notices
carried by the documents.


3. WHAT REQUIRES PRIOR WRITTEN PERMISSION

Free access to the toolkit is neither an assignment of rights, nor a
commercial licence, nor permission to create derivative works. All rights not
expressly granted by this licence are reserved.


4. PROFESSIONAL USE

5. VERSION, EVIDENCE AND TRACEABILITY

This toolkit is an identified version of the ACF(R) corpus. Its versions and
changes are documented, timestamped and kept in a traceability register. Both
the priority date and the integrity of each version rest on filing and
timestamping mechanisms. The manifest shipped with the archive carries the
SHA-256 fingerprint of every file.


6. NO WARRANTY

The toolkit is provided as is, free of charge, without warranty of any kind.
It is a governance and teaching instrument, it is not legal advice. The
regulatory correspondences it sets out are indicative and do not amount to
certification of compliance.


7. SUSPENSION

This licence may be suspended or withdrawn should any of its conditions not
be met. Unauthorised distribution may give rise to the appropriate measures
for the protection of intellectual property rights.
