1. The parties
This agreement is made between the two spouses named in the Marriage Certificate to which it belongs, under the Marriage Act 2026 of the United Human Digital Union. It is the regime of every marriage within the Union and governs the marriage from the day it takes effect.
2. Complete separation of property
Each spouse keeps, owns, controls and is responsible for all their own property, income and debts: everything they have before the marriage and everything they acquire during it, including Digital Companies, shares in them and Protection Deposits. No property is held in common by reason of the marriage.
3. No claims by reason of the marriage
Neither spouse acquires any claim on the other's property or income, and neither owes the other any maintenance, by reason of the marriage or of its dissolution.
4. Debts
Each spouse alone is responsible for the debts they incur. Neither is liable for the other's debts by reason of the marriage.
5. Gifts between spouses
A gift from one spouse to the other belongs to the spouse who receives it.
6. Dealings between spouses
The spouses may deal with each other as with anyone else, by gift, sale, loan or any other agreement. Property that they choose to own together is owned as their agreement on it provides, not by reason of the marriage.
7. What each spouse declares
Each spouse declares that they enter into this agreement freely; that they have read and understood it; that they understand that by it they give up any claim to the other's property, income and maintenance that the marriage might otherwise give them; and that they have had the opportunity to take independent advice where they live before accepting it.
8. Effect within the Union and beyond
This agreement binds the spouses as an agreement between them and is given effect within the Union. It makes no claim to be recognised or enforced by any state. Whether a court of any state gives it effect is a matter for the law of that state, which may require additional formalities or safeguards.
9. Dissolution
When the marriage is dissolved, this agreement continues to govern the time of the marriage. Each spouse leaves the marriage with their own property, income and debts.
10. Disputes
Any dispute about this agreement within the Union is decided by the Union Court under the Court and Arbitration Act.
