Subject to User's compliance with this Agreement, and to the extent of Graphite's rights in the Materials, Graphite grants User a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to access, download, and retain one (1) personal copy of the Materials solely for User's own internal, non-commercial, and informational purposes ("Permitted Use"). Where User accesses the Materials on behalf of an employer or principal, this license is granted solely for that organization's internal, non-commercial, informational use, and does not extend to any broader organizational use, distribution, or exploitation of the Materials. This license does not constitute a sale or transfer of any Intellectual Property Rights in the Materials. User acquires no ownership interest of any kind by virtue of this Agreement or User's access to the Materials.

Without Graphite's prior written consent, User — and, where applicable, User's employer or principal on whose behalf the Materials are accessed — shall not, directly or indirectly: (a) reproduce, distribute, sell, license, sublicense, or otherwise transfer the Materials to any third party, by any means or in any medium; (b) use the Materials for any commercial purpose or revenue-generating activity of any kind, including any monetization, paid distribution, or use in connection with paid products or services; modify, adapt, translate, or create derivative works based on the Materials; (d) incorporate the Materials into any product, service, publication, training program, client deliverable, or internal enablement materials; (e) use the Materials to develop, train, or improve any artificial intelligence or machine learning system; (f) remove, alter, or obscure any copyright notice, trademark, or attribution contained in the Materials; or (g) misrepresent authorship or ownership of the Materials, or represent that User holds any rights therein beyond those expressly granted in Section 3; or (h) share access credentials, download links, or otherwise enable any third party to access the Materials.

5. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

Nothing in this Agreement — and nothing arising from User's access to or download of the Materials — conveys, transfers, assigns, or licenses to User any Intellectual Property Rights in or to the Materials or any portion thereof, whether by implication, estoppel, or otherwise, except for the limited license expressly set forth in Section 3.1.

Certain Materials may incorporate third-party content (including images, data, research, or trademarks) owned by parties other than Graphite. Nothing in this Agreement grants User any rights with respect to such third-party content beyond the Permitted Use.

10. TERM AND TERMINATION

This Agreement is effective from the date User first accesses or downloads the Materials until terminated.
