We have included bpmn io into one of our web based application , something similar to how the
GitHub - bpmn-io/bpmn-js-example-angular: An example how to integrate bpmn-js with an Angular application. , angular examples does where in a div has the bpmn modeler.
We have not modified or removed the water mark , and it will not be getting overlapped either.

But in the license page ,License | bpmn.io it is mentioned that we also need to include the following :-

Permission is hereby granted, free of charge, to any person obtaining a copy of
this software and associated documentation files (the "Software"), to deal in the

and to permit persons to whom the Software is furnished to do so, subject to the
following conditions:

The above copyright notice and this permission notice shall be included in all
copies or substantial portions of the Software.

So we want to know where should the copyright notice thing be actually included ?

If you use the pre-built distribution of our tooling the copy right notice is inlined into the bundle. Don’t remove that license text.

If you roll your own version of the tool, make sure to include it in a license book / about page / NOTICE file provided to your users.

Yes we are building an npm package having the bpmn-js dependency included as part of it , we will include the license file as part of the npm package being built by us as well.

Just for confirming , the about page you mentioned we do have the same as part of documentation.If that’s the about page you are referring to we can include it there aswell ,web application as standalone doesnt have an about page

If you’re releasing an npm package and/or documentation including a link to the license there (README or publicly accessible NOTICE file) works equally fine.
