Video
You may include clips of my videos in your own videos. Please use fair use-aligned lengths, around 10% means you can use 1 minute from a 10-minute video. Please cite it properly in-video (text overlay of ‘Dr Alan D. Thompson’ or ‘LifeArchitect.ai’ and voiceover). Do not try and pass off my work as your own.

No contact
Unless it is an exceptional circumstance like putting a viz on the surface of the Moon, you do not need to directly ask my permission to use these Materials. You can simply go ahead and use them. In particular, organizations or institutions can include viz in training or courseware, and media outlets can pick up quotes from LifeArchitect.ai without asking permission.
