HOW THESE BOOKS ARE MADE
Vellumwise series are developed with the help of generative AI, including AI-generated prose, under the editorial direction of the Vellumwise publisher. Research, technical accuracy and continuity are checked before release; the fictional councils are not real professionals and nothing in the books is personal advice.
This licence does not claim that every element of the books is protected by copyright. The
conditions below are contractual conditions of your licence to use these files and apply to
the extent permitted by applicable law.

FICTION, NOT ADVICE
These books are fiction. The expert councils are invented characters. Ideas about money,
health, law, psychology, learning or work are dramatised and general; they are not personal
professional advice. Check your own situation with a qualified professional.

YOU MAY
  - read these books on any of your own devices;
  - keep backup copies for yourself;
  - print a copy of the PDFs for your own private reading;
  - read the books aloud in private, for example to your family.

AS CONDITIONS OF THIS LICENCE, YOU MAY NOT
  - share, upload, send, sell, lend, rent or give away these files or copies of them;
  - post them on websites, file-sharing services, chats or social networks;
  - use these files or their text to train or fine-tune AI systems;
  - use the text, characters or covers for commercial purposes, or for broadcast, stage,
    audio or screen adaptations.

Commercial uses and adaptations are available only by separate written agreement:

allows without permission (such as quotation, criticism, review or parody).
