ARR-UOES

Section 1A:

General Overview of License:

​

Notice: This is not a legal document, nor legal advice. This is a custom license that has not been registered in any form. It was created in mid-2024. This is a way for those who need it to reference the 'system' that content from particular vendors or creators use in times where it is appropriate to do so, such as but not limited to: a unlawful claim against someone who was given permission to use a product or service for their own benefit that had this license, not credited content taken from source with this license, suspicious practices with products that use this license, etc.

​

Note: This license, if used, can and will be explicit and show all rights that individuals have and what specific permissions someone has for a product. If said individual/party does not use the product/service for a listed specific purpose (meaning the right/permission was not granted to the individual/party using this license when the product/service had this license), they are breaking this license and can be reported to an authority for further developments. The product/service provider must list all permissions and rights given to those who use a product/service with this license, or they also break the license, and will be held accountable.

​

If you do not wish to use this license nor do you agree with this license, do not apply it to your products/services. If you want to change this license to a higher protection, you may do so if no permissions/rights have been granted to any individual/company. If you change your license and a company/individual has any rights/permissions granted when the product/service had this license before the change, you are breaking the license and will be held accountable.

​

The license was updated and an amendment supplementary section "1B" was added on August 22, 2024.

The license was updated and it's title changed to ARR-UOES on Friday, July 11th, 2025.

The license was updated on Sunday, September 14, 2025, to remove the 'publication of license rights' requirement. It is no longer required to publicly show anyone what an individual or company has in terms of ways they can use a product. This license can be used without describing to any public person how a product or it's content, or derivatives are used. If required by law to describe to public persons how an individual or company has used or copied a product, they will have to follow those laws, which override the license (within terms of the scenario where this may happen). Section 1B was updated to describe "public domain" and how it can override this license when a team of people decide to make a ARR-UOES licensed product, service or content 'public domain'. Section 1B has added scenario descriptions for team-related license conditions, and what kind of licenses the product, service or content can be re-licensed to, and when written notices are to be written and sent to third parties part of a ARR-UOES licensed product, service or content.

​

Section 1B:

​

Description of Rights with License:

You (the user of product with this license) may use the product within the boundaries of what this license holder allows. This includes but is not limited to: how the product is shared or distributed, who may advertise/promote the product, whether or not third parties may earn money off the product itself, and how the product is made and what steps it took to create.

​

The owner (the one who has applied this license to their product) may update or change the license to a more open license (public domain) only if all parties involved come to an agreement. The very definition of public domain accounts for this scenario. If parties do not agree together to change the license from ARR-UOES to another more open license, then the change cannot happen. If any parties are left out from the change from ARR-UOES to another more open license, then whoever has changed the license from ARR-UOES to a more open format is responsible for trouble or damages caused by the change. Owners of an original ARR-UOES product (a non-derivative of a ARR-UOES product, defined either as a 'new ARR-UOES product' or 'first-edition product' with zero dependencies on other non-ARR-UOES products or services) can change the license to a more open format if they are an individual, assuming they are not working with anyone else nor paying anyone else for work on the product unofficially (unchecked workers). If any unchecked workers have done work for a product, service or content under ARR-UOES, they must be given the right to deny or accept the change to a more open format license. Companies of a few individuals or many must include workers in license changes who have contributed small or large amounts of work for a ARR-UOES licensed product, service or content. Any individual or company before the date of August 22, 2024 who used a product with the ARR-UOES license or a product that was changed to the ARR-UOES license does not need to conform to the current version of the ARR-UOES license. Individuals and companies conform to the conditions they agreed to at the date they were allowed to use the ARR-UOES licensed product, service or content.

​

Users of products who do not conform to the licenses will be responsible for their actions, and owners of these products have the right to take action against third parties who do not conform to this license, which is a universal license, which can never be changed to a more locked down license (an example is a private license which limits rights more than this license does, this is not a permitted license change).

​​

Ownership Control Rights and Written Notices Of Right Changes with License Description:

If an original work is created with this license, the owner of that product has full control over what happens to the product, and can revoke or add rights for any third party at any time, with prior written notice to parties larger than a few individuals. Written notices must be given to all third parties of changes that affect them and must be sent to third parties a month in advance, when necessary. Written notices must tell all third parties involved specifically what rights are being changed, when exactly these rights are being changed, and how it will affect said third parties. Third parties rights which have been revoked must also be publicly and clearly stated somewhere (this is done by the third party themselves).

After August 22, 2024, any individuals or companies who were using a product that changed to ARR-UOES do not have to be informed of the change. They must conform to whatever rights they were given to use the product, service, or content in the way they have been allowed to use it in at the time they were given the rights.
