How you may use this
The book is free to read and free to share by linking to it. You may quote briefly with attribution. You may not republish it in full, sell it, or present it as your own work.
The model documents are different. Part XIII (The Community Constitution) and Part XIV (The Practical Toolkit) carry a limited, non-exclusive licence to reproduce and adapt them for your own community's internal, non-commercial use. That licence doesn't extend to reselling them, republishing them as a standalone product, or folding them into a commercial work. Attribution is appreciated, never required.
This is not legal advice. It is general information published for educational purposes, and it creates no attorney-client relationship. The author is not an attorney.
Laws on nudity, land use, zoning, housing, business operation, employment, health and safety, photography, and above all the protection of minors vary substantially between jurisdictions and change over time. Nothing here states the law in any particular place. Get advice from a qualified attorney licensed where you are, and from appropriate insurance and safety professionals, before organising, operating, or building anything of the kind described here.
The model documents are illustrative starting points only. They are not drafted for any jurisdiction and must be reviewed by counsel before use. Nothing in this book is intended to encourage or facilitate unlawful conduct.

This is deliberate. A book that asks communities to guard their members' privacy shouldn't be quietly collecting its readers' data — and the surest way to keep that promise is to never gather it. Email sent to the contact address is used only to reply.
