Closed Commons-Oriented Consent Agreement & Closed Lab Agreement
<aside>
📺
Why this exists
- Keep trust high and confusion low.
- Everyone should know what is safe to say, show, and share.
- The host names the Agreement Ring at the start and shows it in the waiting room and on the first slide. If you join late, you can always ask which ring you are in.

🤝
Ring A - Closed Commons-Oriented Consent Agreement
- This is a private, invite-only meeting.
- By joining the Zoom room, you consent to being recorded.
- The Speaker-view (Presenter) will be recorded and shared.
- The gallery view will be recorded but will not be shared.
- The full Speaker-view recording will be shared only with registered attendees and those who could not join live.
- Summit Organizers may record and publish Speaker-view Select Clips. The Select Clips of Presenters may be used for educational or promotional purposes, with prior consent from the Presenters.
- No part of the recording may be shared elsewhere without written permission from RegenOS Summit Organizers.
- This is a private space and the full recording will only be shared within the membrane of trust created by the Summit Team and Participants. Still, there is always a risk of unauthorized use. Do NOT share sensitive intellectual property here.
- Community use of recordings is clearly defined and limited.

🧪
Ring B - Closed Lab Agreement
- This is a private working group. The Lab participants are responsible to safeguard individual contributions and also agree on the group's IP and notes.
- Recording: not allowed. No screenshots. No auto-transcription exports. Recording here needs to be consented between participants.
- Nothing leaves the Lab unless everyone agrees in writing. Chatham House Rule summaries are fine. The Lab lead keeps a short contribution log.
- Use this for innovative ideas, sensitive designs, partner talks, early drafts, funding opportunities.
- Once an idea is formed, the participants need to agree on their own what to do with it.
