Bethesda changed the rules about permission:
"As of March 12th, 2023 Bethesda will be changing the rules regarding what types of communication constitute sufficient permission from original mod authors to console porters intending to port mods to Bethesda.net, where Xbox and Playstation mods are exclusively hosted. The following link outlines what will be acceptable going forward:

TLDR: screenshotted permissions from private or direct messages will no longer be acceptable. Permissions will now have to be posted publicly."
Here's my public statement for Bethesda.net:
I give permissions to: Timetix, Modder725
to port/use assets from/modify my mod(s) to Bethesda.net, under these conditions:
- full credit is given (with link to my website), including credit(s) to other authors for any assets used in the mod ((necessary))
- the porter will not attempt to profit monetarily by asking for donations or Patreon patrons
- a link back to the original mod page is in the description
- the porter will independently maintain the mod with respect to updates and bug fixes for any issues with the port
- the porter posts clear contact information in the Bethesda.net mod description so Xbox users can report issues and get support
- the port will be removed at the request of the original mod author(s)
See that, Nexus? Bethesda understands ownership better than you.
