The project maintainer, GitHub `shinick-han` / npm `shinick`, operating under the
BiteFoundry project brand, selected this release policy on 2026-10-23. The grant
covers only rights the maintainer can license; it does not assert that all
AI-generated pixels are copyrightable or exclusively owned. The cited reference
photographers retain their rights under their original licenses.

## Practical summary

You may use, copy, redistribute and adapt the artwork, including commercially.
Retain the supplied creator/source credits, link to the applicable licenses and
identify changes. Shared adaptations of the artwork must use CC BY-SA 4.0 or an
applicable BY-SA-compatible license. Do not impose additional legal restrictions
or effective technological measures that restrict the licensed freedoms.

The previous, unpublished custom limited-use artwork draft is superseded for
this release. There is no separate permission requirement here for asset packs,
character reuse, commercial products or merchandise otherwise permitted by the
CC license. Separate rights, if applicable, are not licensed by this notice.

The software code is separately MIT under LICENSE-CODE. Merely bundling these
assets with independent software does not relicense that software under CC.
Third-party code and the procedural animal rig retain their own notices.
Names are addressed in TRADEMARKS.md; that file adds no restrictions to the CC
artwork permissions. No endorsement by the reference photographers is implied.

This summary is not a replacement for the linked legal text. Applicable
exceptions, public-domain material and uses that require no permission remain
unrestricted. No warranty or legal-clearance certification is supplied.
