Version 1.0 — Effective September 22, 2026
This Creator Agreement (“Agreement”) is made between Corpus Obscura Inc., a Florida corporation doing business as Open Tool Wall, and the contributor (“Creator”).
By submitting files, designs, models, documentation, or other creative works (“Works”) to the Open Tool Wall ecosystem, the Creator voluntarily agrees to the following terms and conditions.
1. Purpose and Intent
1.1 The purpose of this Agreement is to establish a standard of quality, openness, and mutual benefit for all Works contributed to the Open Tool Wall program.
1.2 The Creator acknowledges that Open Tool Wall operates as a collaborative, open-source ecosystem focused on the design, testing, and dissemination of freely accessible tool system components and related materials.
1.3 This Agreement reflects a voluntary commitment by the Creator to uphold and advance these shared standards in good faith.
2. Commitment to Quality and Testing
2.1 The Creator warrants that any Work submitted to Open Tool Wall has been personally fabricated, assembled, and tested to confirm that it functions as intended.
2.2 The Creator agrees to ensure that all submitted Works meet or exceed a minimum testing standard, defined as the successful production and validation of the design using commonly available manufacturing or printing methods.
2.3 The Creator shall disclose any known limitations, material requirements, tolerances, or special assembly considerations necessary for proper use of the Work.
2.4 Open Tool Wall may, at its discretion, request verification or evidence of testing prior to publication or certification of a Work.
2.5 This obligation promotes user safety, reliability, and the overall technical integrity of the Open Tool Wall repository.
3. Commitment to Open Standards
3.1 The Creator agrees that all submitted Works shall be governed exclusively by the Open Tool Wall License, which provides that such Works are:
- Free to Use – available to all users without charge or restriction for personal, educational, or creative purposes;
- Free to Modify – open for adaptation, improvement, or incorporation into derivative works; and
- Free to Share – redistributable in original or modified form, provided attribution to the original Creator and continued application of the Open Tool Wall License.
3.2 The Creator shall not impose any additional license terms, digital restrictions, or proprietary controls on any Work released into the Open Tool Wall ecosystem.
3.3 The Creator affirms support for the Open Tool Wall open standards and the maintenance of attribution integrity for all Works derived from or associated with their original contributions.
4. Agreement to Community Commercialization
4.1 The Creator acknowledges and agrees that Open Tool Wall may engage in commercial activities involving the reproduction, sale, or licensed distribution of Works submitted under this Agreement (“Commercialization”).
4.2 Such Commercialization shall be conducted solely by or under authorization from Open Tool Wall and exclusively for the benefit of the Open Tool Wall program, including funding, outreach, and maintenance of community infrastructure.
4.3 The Creator grants Open Tool Wall a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-bearing license to use, reproduce, modify, distribute, and commercialize the Work in connection with Open Tool Wall’s mission and operations.
4.4 The Creator retains full authorship and moral rights to the Work and shall receive attribution in accordance with Open Tool Wall’s standard crediting practices.
4.5 Where a Work submitted by the Creator is sold by Open Tool Wall, Open Tool Wall shares a portion of the proceeds with the Creator in accordance with its Creator Payout Policy. The current creator share is twenty percent (20%) of the item sale price, paid under that policy; Open Tool Wall may adjust the rate on reasonable notice, and additional partnership or royalty terms (such as the Open Tool Wall Partner Commerce License (OPCL)) may apply.
4.6 Nothing in this section shall restrict the Creator from using or licensing their Work independently outside of the Open Tool Wall ecosystem, provided such use does not misrepresent affiliation with Open Tool Wall.
5. Voluntary Participation and Ownership
5.1 Participation in the Open Tool Wall program is entirely voluntary.
5.2 The Creator retains full copyright ownership of their Work, subject only to the license rights granted herein to Open Tool Wall and users under the Open Tool Wall License.
5.3 The Creator affirms that they are the original author or authorized licensee of the Work and that the Work does not infringe upon any third-party intellectual property rights.
5.4 The Creator indemnifies and holds harmless Open Tool Wall and its affiliates from any claims arising from infringement or misrepresentation related to their submission.
6. Term and Termination
6.1 This Agreement shall take effect upon the Creator’s submission of a Work to Open Tool Wall and shall remain in effect for as long as the Work is distributed or hosted by Open Tool Wall.
6.2 Either party may terminate this Agreement by written notice; however, any rights granted to users under the Open Tool Wall License shall remain perpetual and irrevocable for Works already released.
6.3 Termination shall not affect any ongoing commercial or licensing arrangements in progress at the time of notice.
