-      A Credential is a set of one or more claims made by an issuer. A Verifiable Credential is a tamper-evident credential that has authorship that can be cryptographically verified. Verifiable Credentials can be used to build Verifiable Presentations, which can also be cryptographically verified.

-      A Presentation is data derived from one or more Credentials, issued by one or more `issuers`, that is shared with a specific `verifier`. A Verifiable Presentation is a tamper-evident Presentation encoded in such a way that authorship of the data can be trusted after a process of cryptographic verification. Certain types of verifiable presentations might contain data that is synthesized from, but do not contain, the original verifiable credentials (for example, zero-knowledge proofs).

       If specified, the value of the optional `termsOfUse` property MUST specify one or more terms of use policies under which the issuer issued the credential or presentation. Each `termsOfUse` policy MUST specify its type (for example, `IssuerPolicy`) and MAY specify its instance `id`. The precise content of each term of use is determined by the specific `TermsOfUse` type definition. If the recipient (a holder or verifier) violates the specified terms of use, the responsibility is their own, and such violation may incur legal liability.
