Heritage Firearms Weapon Accuracy Partnership Template

Parties and scope#

This template covers a launch content collaboration between V4 Publisher and a cleared heritage firearms manufacturer referenced by Brand.HeritageFirearmsPartner.

The collaboration is limited to tactical campaign weapon-rendering accuracy: proportions, materials, animation reference, handling review, safe on-set handling guidance, and approved briefing attribution.

Rights#

• Trademark, product-reference, and style-guide rights must match the Brand.HeritageFirearmsPartner clearance register entry.
• The manufacturer may review art-reference use, but V4 retains final creative control over fiction, mission context, balance, and ratings compliance.
• No gameplay-stat advantage, pay-to-win effect, or competitive tuning change may be attached to the collaboration.

Approvals and restrictions#

• Required approvals: LegalClearance, CreativeDirector, ArmorSafetyLead, ArtDirector, and Localization.
• Off-limits categories and jurisdictional advertising restrictions must be checked before any public use.
• The collaboration must not be treated as reactive paid placement; it must be justified by the creative brief.

Expiration and remedies#

The agreement must include expiration, audit, attribution, takedown, and replacement-art remedies so the campaign can ship a compliant substitute if any brand right is withdrawn.
