PIL Flavors (examples)

PIL is very configurable, but we support pre-configured License Terms for ease of use. We expect these to be the most popular options:

Flavor #1: Non-Commercial Social Remixing

This Flavor is available as a preconfigured "License Terms ID = 2" in Story Protocol.

Let the world build on and play with your creation. This license allows for endless free remixing while tracking all uses of your work while giving you full credit. Similar to: TikTok plus attribution.
