# CASAN Commercial License and IP Decision
|
||
|
||
## Decision
|
||
|
||
CASAN is offered as **proprietary commercial software**. No rights to use,
|
||
copy, modify, distribute, host, or sublicense CASAN are granted except under a
|
||
written evaluation, PoC, subscription, or enterprise agreement signed by the
|
||
copyright owner and the customer.
|
||
|
||
For a paid PoC, the default grant is a non-exclusive, non-transferable,
|
||
time-limited right to deploy the delivered CASAN bundle in the customer’s
|
||
approved environment for the agreed evaluation scope. Production use, managed
|
||
service operation, redistribution, and source access require separate terms.
|
||
|
||
This decision applies to CASAN-authored material only. It does not override
|
||
third-party license obligations.
|
||
|
||
## Release controls
|
||
|
||
1. Regenerate `THIRD_PARTY_SOFTWARE.json` from the committed lockfile before
|
||
each paid-PoC or release candidate: `node scripts/generate-license-inventory.mjs`.
|
||
2. Review every `UNKNOWN`, copyleft, source-available, model, dataset, font,
|
||
icon, container-base-image, or copied-script license before shipment.
|
||
3. Include required notices and source-offer material in the release bundle
|
||
whenever a dependency license requires it.
|
||
4. Record the review owner, release version, decision, and exceptions in the
|
||
release Evidence Pack or legal review record.
|
||
5. Do not claim ownership of customer source code, prompts, or Evidence Pack
|
||
data; ownership and permitted processing are defined by the customer
|
||
agreement and data-processing terms.
|
||
|
||
## Known scope boundary
|
||
|
||
The generated inventory is complete for root-lockfile npm packages only. It is
|
||
not proof that Python tooling, operating-system packages, Docker base images,
|
||
models, datasets, or bundled assets are cleared. Those sources are release
|
||
blockers until separately inventoried and approved.
|
||
|
||
## Required legal review before external sale
|
||
|
||
Confirm copyright ownership/assignment for CASAN-authored code, trademark use,
|
||
customer contract templates, export-control applicability, open-source notices,
|
||
and country-specific privacy terms. This document records the product decision;
|
||
it is not a substitute for counsel.
