exclusions
Things not included
Exclusions are things deliberately left out or not covered.
Insurance policies list exclusions—conditions or circumstances the policy won't pay for: Read the exclusions carefully before signing.
In contracts and agreements, exclusions specify what falls outside the scope: The warranty has exclusions for water damage.
Social exclusions keep people out of groups or opportunities.
