## 1. Purpose
|
2020-09-02 10:57:08 -06:00
|
|
|
|
2021-01-23 17:19:18 -07:00
|
|
|
This License gives You unlimited permission to use and modify the
|
|
|
|
software to which it applies (the "Work"), either as-is or in modified
|
|
|
|
form, for Your private purposes, while protecting the owners and
|
|
|
|
contributors to the software from liability.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This License also strives to protect the freedom and autonomy of third
|
|
|
|
parties who receive the Work from you. If any non-affiliated third
|
|
|
|
party receives any part, aspect, or element of the Work from You, this
|
|
|
|
License requires that You provide that third party all the permissions
|
|
|
|
and materials needed to independently use and modify the Work without
|
|
|
|
that third party having a loss of data or capability due to your
|
|
|
|
actions.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The full permissions, conditions, and other terms are laid out below.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## 2. Receiving a License
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In order to receive this License, You must agree to its rules. The
|
|
|
|
rules of this License are both obligations of Your agreement with the
|
|
|
|
Licensor and conditions to your License. You must not do anything with
|
|
|
|
the Work that triggers a rule You cannot or will not follow.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### 2.1. Application
|
2020-09-02 10:57:08 -06:00
|
|
|
|
2021-01-23 17:19:18 -07:00
|
|
|
The terms of this License apply to the Work as you receive it from
|
|
|
|
Licensor, as well as to any modifications, elaborations, or
|
|
|
|
implementations created by You that contain any licensable portion of
|
|
|
|
the Work (a "Modified Work"). Unless specified, any reference to the
|
|
|
|
Work also applies to a Modified Work.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### 2.2. Offer and Acceptance
|
2020-09-02 10:57:08 -06:00
|
|
|
|
2021-01-23 17:19:18 -07:00
|
|
|
This License is automatically offered to every person and
|
|
|
|
organization. You show that you accept this License and agree to its
|
|
|
|
conditions by taking any action with the Work that, absent this
|
|
|
|
License, would infringe any intellectual property right held by
|
|
|
|
Licensor.
|
2020-09-02 10:57:08 -06:00
|
|
|
|
2021-01-23 17:19:18 -07:00
|
|
|
### 2.3. Compliance and Remedies
|
2020-09-02 10:57:08 -06:00
|
|
|
|
2021-01-23 17:19:18 -07:00
|
|
|
Any failure to act according to the terms and conditions of this
|
|
|
|
License places Your use of the Work outside the scope of the License
|
|
|
|
and infringes the intellectual property rights of the Licensor. In the
|
|
|
|
event of infringement, the terms and conditions of this License may be
|
|
|
|
enforced by Licensor under the intellectual property laws of any
|
|
|
|
jurisdiction to which You are subject. You also agree that either the
|
|
|
|
Licensor or a Recipient (as an intended third-party beneficiary) may
|
|
|
|
enforce the terms and conditions of this License against You via
|
|
|
|
specific performance.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## 3. Permissions

|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
royalty-free, non-exclusive permission to:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
+ a) Take any action with the Work that would infringe the non-patent
|
|
|
|
intellectual property laws of any jurisdiction to which You are
|
|
|
|
subject; and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
+ b) claims that Licensor can license or becomes able to
|
|
|
|
license, to the extent that those claims are embodied in the Work as
|
|
|
|
distributed by Licensor. ### 3.2. Limitations on Permissions Granted
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The following limitations apply to the permissions granted in section
|
|
|
|
3.1:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
+ a) Licensor does not grant any patent license for claims that are
|
|
|
|
only infringed due to modification of the Work as provided by
|
|
|
|
Licensor, or the combination of the Work as provided by Licensor,
|
|
|
|
directly or indirectly, with any other component, including other
|
|
|
|
software or hardware.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
+ b) Licensor does not grant any license to the trademarks, service
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## 4. Conditions
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If You exercise any permission granted by this License, such that the
|
|
|
|
Work, or any part, aspect, or element of the Work, is distributed,
|
|
|
|
communicated, made available, or made perceptible to a non-Affiliate
|
|
|
|
third party (a "Recipient"), either via physical delivery or via a
|
|
|
|
network connection to the Recipient, You must comply with the
|
|
|
|
following conditions:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### 4.1. Provide Access to Source Code
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Subject to the exception in section 4.4, You must provide to each
|
|
|
|
Recipient a copy of, or no-charge unrestricted network access to, the
|
|
|
|
Source Code corresponding to the Work ("Access").
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The "Source Code" of the Work means the form of the Work preferred for
|
|
|
|
making modifications, including any comments, configuration
|
|
|
|
information, documentation, help materials, installation instructions,
|
|
|
|
cryptographic seeds or keys, and any information reasonably necessary
|
|
|
|
for the Recipient to independently compile and use the Source Code and
|
|
|
|
to have full access to the functionality contained in the Work.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### 4.1.1. Providing Network Access to the Source Code
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Network Access to the Notices and Source Code may be provided by You
|
|
|
|
or by a third party, such as a public software repository, and must
|
|
|
|
persist during the same period in which You exercise any of the
|
|
|
|
permissions granted to You under this License and for at least one
|
|
|
|
year thereafter.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### 4.1.2. Source Code for a Modified Work
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Subject to the exception in section 4.5, You must provide to each
|
|
|
|
Recipient of a Modified Work Access to Source Code corresponding to
|
|
|
|
those portions of the Work remaining in the Modified Work as well as
|
|
|
|
the modifications used by You to create the Modified Work. The Source
|
|
|
|
Code corresponding to the modifications in the Modified Work must be
|
|
|
|
provided to the Recipient either a) under this License, or b) under a
|
|
|
|
Compatible Open Source License.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### 4.1.3. Coordinated Disclosure of Security Vulnerabilities
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You may delay providing the Source Code corresponding to a particular
|
|
|
|
modification of the Work for up to ninety (90) days (the "Embargo
|
|
|
|
Period") if:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
+ a) the modification is intended to address a newly-identified
|
|
|
|
vulnerability or a security flaw in the Work,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
+ b) disclosure of the vulnerability or security flaw before the end
|
|
|
|
of the Embargo Period would put the data, identity, or autonomy of one
|
|
|
|
or more Recipients of the Work at significant risk,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
+ c) You are participating in a coordinated disclosure of the
|
|
|
|
vulnerability or security flaw with one or more additional Licensees,
|
|
|
|
and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
+ d) Access to the Source Code pertaining to the modification is
|
|
|
|
provided to all Recipients at the end of the Embargo Period.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### 4.2. Maintain User Autonomy
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In addition to providing each Recipient the opportunity to have Access
|
|
|
|
to the Source Code, You cannot use the permissions given under this
|
|
|
|
License to interfere with a Recipient's ability to fully use an
|
|
|
|
independent copy of the Work generated from the Source Code You
|
|
|
|
provide with the Recipient's own User Data.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
"User Data" means any data that is an input to or an output from the
|
|
|
|
Work, where the presence of the data is necessary for substantially
|
|
|
|
identical use of the Work in an equivalent context chosen by the
|
|
|
|
Recipient, and where the Recipient has an existing ownership interest,
|
|
|
|
an existing right to possess, or where the data has been generated by,
|
|
|
|
for, or has been assigned to the Recipient.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### 4.2.1. No Withholding User Data
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Throughout any period in which You exercise any of the permissions
|
|
|
|
granted to You under this License, You must also provide to any
|
|
|
|
Recipient to whom you provide services via the Work, a no-charge copy,
|
|
|
|
provided in a commonly used electronic form, of the Recipient's User
|
|
|
|
Data in your possession, to the extent that such User Data is
|
|
|
|
available to You for use in conjunction with the Work.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### 4.2.2. No Technical Measures that Limit Access
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You may not, by means of the use cryptographic methods applied to
|
|
|
|
anything provided to the Recipient, by possession or control of
|
|
|
|
cryptographic keys, seeds, hashes, by any other technological
|
|
|
|
protection measures, or by any other method, limit a Recipient's
|
|
|
|
ability to access any functionality present in Recipient's independent
|
|
|
|
copy of the Work, or to deny a Recipient full control of the
|
|
|
|
Recipient's User Data.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### 4.2.3. No Legal or Contractual Measures that Limit Access
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You may not contractually restrict a Recipient's ability to
|
|
|
|
independently exercise the permissions granted under this License. You
|
|
|
|
waive any legal power to forbid circumvention of technical protection
|
|
|
|
measures that include use of the Work, and You waive any claim that
|
|
|
|
the capabilities of the Work were limited or modified as a means of
|
|
|
|
enforcing the legal rights of third parties against Recipients.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### 4.3. Provide Notices and Attribution
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You must retain all licensing, authorship, or attribution notices
|
|
|
|
contained in the Source Code (the "Notices"), and provide all such
|
|
|
|
Notices to each Recipient, together with a statement acknowledging the
|
|
|
|
use of the Work. Notices may be provided directly to a Recipient or
|
|
|
|
via an easy-to-find hyperlink to an Internet location also providing
|
|
|
|
Access to Source Code.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### 4.4. Scope of Conditions in this License
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You are required to uphold the conditions of this License only
|
|
|
|
relative to those who are Recipients of the Work from You. Other than
|
|
|
|
providing Recipients with the applicable Notices, Access to Source
|
|
|
|
Code, and a copy of and full control of their User Data, nothing in
|
|
|
|
this License requires You to provide processing services to or engage
|
|
|
|
in network interactions with anyone.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### 4.5. Combined Work Exception
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
As an exception to condition that You provide Recipients Access to
|
|
|
|
Source Code, any Source Code files marked by the Licensor as having
|
|
|
|
the "Combined Work Exception," or any object code exclusively
|
|
|
|
resulting from Source Code files so marked, may be combined with other
|
|
|
|
Software into a "Larger Work." So long as you comply with the
|
|
|
|
requirements to provide Recipients the applicable Notices and Access
|
|
|
|
to the Source Code provided to You by Licensor, and you provide
|
|
|
|
Recipients access to their User Data and do not limit Recipient's
|
|
|
|
ability to independently work with their User Data, any other Software
|
|
|
|
in the Larger Work as well as the Larger Work as a whole may be
|
|
|
|
licensed under the terms of your choice.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## 5. Term and Termination
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The term of this License begins when You receive the Work, and
|
|
|
|
continues until terminated for any of the reasons described herein, or
|
|
|
|
until all Licensor's intellectual property rights in the Software
|
|
|
|
expire, whichever comes first ("Term"). This License cannot be
|
|
|
|
revoked, only terminated for the reasons listed below.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### 5.1. Effect of Termination
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If this License is terminated for any reason, all permissions granted
|
|
|
|
to You under Section 3 by any Licensor automatically terminate. You
|
|
|
|
will immediately cease exercising any permissions granted in this
|
|
|
|
License relative to the Work, including as part of any Modified Work.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### 5.2. Termination for Non-Compliance; Reinstatement
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This License terminates automatically if You fail to comply with any
|
|
|
|
of the conditions in section 4. As a special exception to termination
|
|
|
|
for non-compliance, Your permissions for the Work under this License
|
|
|
|
will automatically be reinstated if You come into compliance with all
|
|
|
|
the conditions in section 2 within sixty (60) days of being notified
|
|
|
|
by Licensor or an intended third-party beneficiary of Your
|
|
|
|
noncompliance. You are eligible for reinstatement of permissions for
|
|
|
|
the Work one time only, and only for the sixty days immediately after
|
|
|
|
becoming aware of noncompliance. Loss of permissions granted for the
|
|
|
|
Work under this License due to either a) sustained noncompliance
|
|
|
|
lasting more than sixty days or b) subsequent termination for
|
|
|
|
noncompliance after reinstatement, is permanent, unless rights are
|
|
|
|
specifically restored by Licensor in writing.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### 5.3. Termination Due to Litigation
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If You initiate litigation against Licensor, or any Recipient of the
|
|
|
|
Work, either direct or indirect, asserting that the Work directly or
|
|
|
|
indirectly infringes any patent, then all permissions granted to You
|
|
|
|
by this License shall terminate. In the event of termination due to
|
|
|
|
litigation, all permissions validly granted by You under this License,
|
|
|
|
directly or indirectly, shall survive termination. Administrative
|
|
|
|
review procedures, declaratory judgment actions, counterclaims in
|
|
|
|
response to patent litigation, and enforcement actions against former
|
|
|
|
Licensees terminated under this section do not cause termination due
|
2020-09-02 10:57:08 -06:00
|
|
|
to litigation.
|
|
|
|
|
2021-01-23 17:19:18 -07:00
|
|
|
## 6. Disclaimer of Warranty and Limit on Liability
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
As far as the law allows, the Work comes AS-IS, without any warranty
|
|
|
|
of any kind, and no Licensor or contributor will be liable to anyone
|
|
|
|
for any damages related to this software or this license, under any
|
|
|
|
kind of legal claim, or for any type of damages, including indirect,
|
|
|
|
special, incidental, or consequential damages of any type arising as a
|
|
|
|
result of this License or the use of the Work including, without
|
|
|
|
limitation, damages for loss of goodwill, work stoppage, computer
|
|
|
|
failure or malfunction, loss of profits, revenue, or any and all other
|
|
|
|
commercial damages or losses.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## 7. Other Provisions
|
|
|
|
### 7.1. Affiliates
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
An "Affiliate" means any other entity that, directly or indirectly
|
|
|
|
through one or more intermediaries, controls, is controlled by, or is
|
|
|
|
under common control with, the Licensee. Employees of a Licensee and
|
|
|
|
natural persons acting as contractors exclusively providing services
|
|
|
|
to Licensee are also Affiliates.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### 7.2. Choice of Jurisdiction and Governing Law
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A Licensor may require that any action or suit by a Licensee relating
|
|
|
|
to a Work provided by Licensor under this License may be brought only
|
|
|
|
in the courts of a particular jurisdiction and under the laws of a
|
|
|
|
particular jurisdiction (excluding its conflict-of-law provisions), if
|
|
|
|
Licensor provides conspicuous notice of the particular jurisdiction to
|
|
|
|
all Licensees.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### 7.3. No Sublicensing
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This License is not sublicensable. Each time You provide the Work or a
|
|
|
|
Modified Work to a Recipient, the Recipient automatically receives a
|
|
|
|
license under the terms described in this License. You may not impose
|
|
|
|
any further reservations, conditions, or other provisions on any
|
|
|
|
Recipients' exercise of the permissions granted herein.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### 7.4. Attorneys' Fees
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In any action to enforce the terms of this License, or seeking damages
|
|
|
|
relating thereto, including by an intended third-party beneficiary,
|
|
|
|
the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover its costs and
|
|
|
|
expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees
|
|
|
|
and costs incurred in connection with such action, including any
|
|
|
|
appeal of such action. A "prevailing party" is the party that
|
|
|
|
achieves, or avoids, compliance with this License, including through
|
|
|
|
settlement. This section shall survive the termination of this
|
|
|
|
License.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### 7.5. No Waiver
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Any failure by Licensor to enforce any provision of this License will
|
|
|
|
not constitute a present or future waiver of such provision nor limit
|
|
|
|
Licensor's ability to enforce such provision at a later time.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### 7.6. Severability
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If any provision of this License is held to be unenforceable, such
|
|
|
|
provision shall be reformed only to the extent necessary to make it
|
|
|
|
enforceable. Any invalid or unenforceable portion will be interpreted
|
|
|
|
to the effect and intent of the original portion. If such a
|
|
|
|
construction is not possible, the invalid or unenforceable portion
|
|
|
|
will be severed from this License but the rest of this License will
|
|
|
|
remain in full force and effect.
|
|
