nonpenalized
Free from punishment
Not subject to a penalty or disadvantage.
Nonpenalized typically appears in regulatory, legal, or competitive contexts where certain actions or statuses might otherwise incur consequences: nonpenalized withdrawals from retirement accounts, nonpenalized rule violations.
The word emphasizes that something normally subject to penalty has been exempted.
