For Educational Use with Children

Crumbforest Children's Knowledge License (CKL v0.1) (see LICENSE-CKL.md)

When this software or content is used in educational contexts involving children, the CKL automatically applies and adds additional protections:

• Children's Rights: Kids own what they create
• Data Sovereignty: Exportable data, deletion rights, transparency
• No Paywalls: Learning kernels remain free
• Offline-First: No cloud dependency
• Reproducibility: No black boxes, everything documented
• Privacy: No tracking, minimal data, transparent storage

This applies when:

• The software is used in schools, workshops, or learning environments
• Children interact with the system (chat, projects, exercises)
• Educational content is delivered to minors
• Learning data is collected or processed

---

Conflict Resolution

In case of conflict between MIT and CKL, the CKL takes precedence for any use case involving children.

Example:

• You want to fork CrumbCore and sell it commercially? ✅ MIT allows it
• You want to add telemetry to track children's behavior? ❌ CKL prohibits it

The CKL is not a restriction on developers — it's a protection for learners.

Why Dual License?

For Developers: MIT Freedom

• Fork without friction
• Integrate into commercial products
• No attribution requirements beyond copyright notice
• Standard, well-understood terms

For Children: CKL Protection

• Legal framework for ethical learning environments
• Rights that can be enforced
• Clear obligations for operators
• Measurable compliance criteria

The best of both worlds.

Quick Reference

Use Case	License	Key Points
Running CrumbCore for my company	MIT	Free to use commercially
Forking and modifying the code	MIT	Attribution appreciated but not required
Using in a school/workshop	CKL	Children's rights apply
Collecting learning data	CKL	Must comply with §5 (privacy)
Selling access to children	CKL	Must keep learning kernels free (§7.3)
Building a proprietary AI trainer	MIT + CKL	Code is MIT, but children's data has CKL protection

How to Comply

If you're a developer:

1. Read the MIT License (2 minutes)
2. If your use case involves children, read the CKL (~10 minutes)
3. Implement CKL requirements (see OZM-NEXUS-ECOSYSTEM.md Section VI for checklist)

If you're an educator:

1. Read the CKL carefully
2. Ensure your setup meets §4 (reproducibility), §5 (privacy), §7 (offline-first)
3. Document data handling (see DATENSCHUTZ.md when available)

If you're a child (or parent):

1. You own what you create (§3.1)
2. You can export your data (§3.2)
3. You can leave and take everything with you (§3.3)
4. Your questions never cost money (§7.3)
