# Third-party and provenance notices

GraphFlow.studio’s browser Force Layout 2 engine was independently implemented from
the published algorithm description:

Mathieu Jacomy, Tommaso Venturini, Sebastien Heymann, and Mathieu Bastian,
“ForceAtlas2, a Continuous Graph Layout Algorithm for Handy Network
Visualization Designed for the Gephi Software,” *PLOS ONE* 9(6), 2014,
<https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0098679>.

The repository contains a supplied GPL-licensed Python reference implementation
under `example-impl/` for behavioral comparison. That directory and the paper
copy under `doc/` are deliberately excluded from the deployable GraphFlow.studio
release archive; no reference source is imported by the browser runtime.

The bundled CSV datasets and MP3 soundtracks were supplied with the project.
On 2026-08-28, the project owner explicitly verified and authorized those exact
checksum-bound files for public release. The evidence recorded in
`ASSET_PROVENANCE.json` is that project-owner authorization; it does not claim
or substitute for an external license document.

## GraphFlow brand assets

The same 2026-08-28 project-owner authorization covers the exact bundled
GraphFlow brand mark at `assets/graphflow-mark.svg`. Its SHA-256 and approval
evidence are retained in `ASSET_PROVENANCE.json`; replacing the mark reopens the
fail-closed provenance gate.

The 192 px and 512 px PNG install icons are deterministic rasterizations of
that source mark produced by `scripts/generate_icons.py`; they do not introduce
another artwork source.

GraphFlow.studio does not load third-party scripts, fonts, trackers, analytics, or
CDN resources from the network at runtime. The vendored D3 and Inter files are served
from the same static application package. The DOI and LinkedIn references in
