# Credits and licensing

## Brand assets

The coldchainOS name, wordmark, simplified Bull mark, the Bull character artwork and all derived compositions belong to the coldchainOS project. They are **not** covered by the project's open-source code licence unless the project states otherwise. Contributors and the press may use the unmodified files in this kit to refer to coldchainOS. Don't alter them, and don't imply endorsement.

## Bull character

- Source: the Bull portrait supplied by the project owner (`03-character/source/coldchainos-bull-reference-original-1254.png`, 1254 × 1254 px). The kit treats it as the authoritative reference.
- Derived files (cutout, avatar, heroes, social crops) were made by cropping, compositing onto a constructed navy background, masking and feathering. No generative re-drawing was applied to the character, and no detail was invented. Everything is at native resolution except:
  - `hero-mobile` (0.80×) and `avatar` (0.715×), which are downscales;
  - the social images, which use browser-scaled crops of the hero composition.
- Cutout mask: produced with the open-source `rembg` library (IS-Net general-use model for the head and horns, U²-Net for the suit), then fused, eroded by 1 px and colour-decontaminated against the navy background.
- The provenance of the original portrait (who created it, and with which tool) was not supplied. Confirm the rights before any commercial or trademark use.

## Fonts (redistributed in `05-web/fonts/`)

| Font | Copyright | Licence | File |
|---|---|---|---|
| Archivo (variable, Latin subset) | © 2020 The Archivo Project Authors (github.com/Omnibus-Type/Archivo) | SIL Open Font License 1.1 | `archivo-OFL.txt` |
| Inter (variable, Latin subset) | © 2016 The Inter Project Authors (github.com/rsms/inter) | SIL Open Font License 1.1 | `inter-OFL.txt` |

Subsets are as packaged by Fontsource (`@fontsource-variable/archivo` 5.3.0, `@fontsource-variable/inter` 5.3.0). The OFL allows bundling with this kit and with websites. The fonts may not be sold on their own.

The wordmark is converted to outlines, so no font is needed to display the logo SVGs.

## Icons

The eight icons in `07-icons-favicons/icons/` were drawn for this kit. They are original and are not taken from any icon library.

## Sample content

Every figure in the specimen, guide and templates is labelled illustrative or sample. None of it describes a real facility, customer, partner or result.
