	- with or without aux marks, sketch lines and other annotations;
	- with or without embedded metadata (AUTHOR, TITLE, DATE, DIFFICULTY, KUDOS, NUMBER, OBSERVATIONS, etc...)
- any rendering(s) of this string:
	- as interactive versions using the KUDAMONO EDITOR
	- as static puzzle images generated with the KUDAMONO EDITOR
	- in video footage of the KUDAMONO EDITOR
- plus any derivative works or modifications of the above text string(s) or rendering(s).


## Usage and Joint Copyright Agreement

### Joint Authorship and Copyright
YOU recognize PEDRO as a joint co-author of the KUDAMONO REPRESENTATION. Accordingly, the intellectual property rights in the KUDAMONO REPRESENTATION shall be equally shared between YOU and PEDRO.

### License Grant
YOU irrevocably grant PEDRO a perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, sublicensable and transferable license to use, reproduce, modify, distribute, perform, and display the KUDAMONO REPRESENTATION and any derivative works thereof — for any purpose, including commercial exploitation. 
This grant is effective without the need for additional consent, notice, or compensation.

### Waiver of Additional Claims 
YOU expressly waive any right to assert claims for compensation or other remuneration related to PEDRO’s use of the KUDAMONO REPRESENTATION, regardless of the purpose or extent of such use.


## Restrictions

### Objectionable Content
By using the KUDAMONO EDITOR or any associated tools, YOU agree not to create, upload, or disseminate any content that is obscene, offensive, inflammatory, defamatory, or in violation of any applicable laws or regulations. This prohibition includes any material that may be deemed harmful or objectionable by PEDRO in its sole discretion. PEDRO reserves the right to remove or restrict access to any content that violates these TERMS, without notice.

### Commercial use
The KUDAMONO EDITOR, along with any KUDAMONO REPRESENTATION is intended solely for personal, non-commercial use. Any direct or indirect commercial exploitation — including without limitation, monetizing through advertisements, subscription fees, or integrating the output into products or services for sale — requires a separate paid commercial license from PEDRO. You agree not to use or distribute the KUDAMONO EDITOR nor any KUDAMONO REPRESENTATION for commercial purposes without first securing the appropriate license. PEDRO reserves the right to pursue any and all available legal remedies in the event of unauthorized commercial use.

### Reverse Engineering
YOU agree that YOU shall not, and shall not permit any third party to, reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or otherwise attempt to derive the source code or any proprietary information of the KUDAMONO EDITOR or any components, modules, or libraries related to it. This prohibition covers, but is not limited to, any process that seeks to uncover the underlying structure, ideas, or algorithms of the software. Any such attempt constitutes a material breach of these TERMS and may result in the immediate termination of your rights to use the software, in addition to any legal remedies available to PEDRO.


## Other clauses

### Indemnification
YOU agree to indemnify, hold harmless, and defend PEDRO, its officers, employees, agents, and affiliates from and against any and all claims, liabilities, damages, losses, or expenses, including reasonable legal fees and costs, arising from or relating to your use of the KUDAMONO EDITOR, any breach of these TERMS, or any violation of any rights of a third party.

### Severability
If any provision of these TERMS is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect. The invalid or unenforceable provision shall be deemed modified to the extent necessary to render it enforceable while reflecting the intent of PEDRO as closely as possible.

### No Waiver
Failure by PEDRO to enforce any provision of these TERMS shall not constitute a waiver of its right to subsequently enforce that provision or any other provision. No single or partial exercise of any right or remedy by PEDRO shall preclude any other or further exercise of that or any other right or remedy.

### Modification of TERMS 
PEDRO reserves the right to modify or update these TERMS at any time without prior notice. It is your responsibility to review the TERMS periodically. Your continued use of the KUDAMONO EDITOR after any modifications constitutes your acceptance of the revised TERMS.
