26 License
27
28 THE WORK (AS DEFINED BELOW) IS PROVIDED UNDER THE TERMS OF THIS CREATIVE
29 COMMONS PUBLIC LICENSE ("CCPL" OR "LICENSE"). THE WORK IS PROTECTED BY
30 COPYRIGHT AND/OR OTHER APPLICABLE LAW. ANY USE OF THE WORK OTHER THAN AS
31 AUTHORIZED UNDER THIS LICENSE OR COPYRIGHT LAW IS PROHIBITED.
32
33 BY EXERCISING ANY RIGHTS TO THE WORK PROVIDED HERE, YOU ACCEPT AND AGREE
34 TO BE BOUND BY THE TERMS OF THIS LICENSE. TO THE EXTENT THIS LICENSE MAY
35 BE CONSIDERED TO BE A CONTRACT, THE LICENSOR GRANTS YOU THE RIGHTS
36 CONTAINED HERE IN CONSIDERATION OF YOUR ACCEPTANCE OF SUCH TERMS AND
37 CONDITIONS.
38
39 1. Definitions
40
41 a. "Adaptation" means a work based upon the Work, or upon the Work and
42 other pre-existing works, such as a translation, adaptation,
43 derivative work, arrangement of music or other alterations of a
44 literary or artistic work, or phonogram or performance and includes
45 cinematographic adaptations or any other form in which the Work may be
46 recast, transformed, or adapted including in any form recognizably
47 derived from the original, except that a work that constitutes a
48 Collection will not be considered an Adaptation for the purpose of
49 this License. For the avoidance of doubt, where the Work is a musical
50 work, performance or phonogram, the synchronization of the Work in
51 timed-relation with a moving image ("synching") will be considered an
52 Adaptation for the purpose of this License.
53 b. "Collection" means a collection of literary or artistic works, such as
54 encyclopedias and anthologies, or performances, phonograms or
55 broadcasts, or other works or subject matter other than works listed
56 in Section 1(f) below, which, by reason of the selection and
57 arrangement of their contents, constitute intellectual creations, in
58 which the Work is included in its entirety in unmodified form along
59 with one or more other contributions, each constituting separate and
60 independent works in themselves, which together are assembled into a
61 collective whole. A work that constitutes a Collection will not be
62 considered an Adaptation (as defined above) for the purposes of this
63 License.
64 c. "Distribute" means to make available to the public the original and
65 copies of the Work or Adaptation, as appropriate, through sale or
66 other transfer of ownership.
67 d. "Licensor" means the individual, individuals, entity or entities that
68 offer(s) the Work under the terms of this License.
69 e. "Original Author" means, in the case of a literary or artistic work,
70 the individual, individuals, entity or entities who created the Work
71 or if no individual or entity can be identified, the publisher; and in
72 addition (i) in the case of a performance the actors, singers,
73 musicians, dancers, and other persons who act, sing, deliver, declaim,
74 play in, interpret or otherwise perform literary or artistic works or
75 expressions of folklore; (ii) in the case of a phonogram the producer
76 being the person or legal entity who first fixes the sounds of a
77 performance or other sounds; and, (iii) in the case of broadcasts, the
78 organization that transmits the broadcast.
79 f. "Work" means the literary and/or artistic work offered under the terms
80 of this License including without limitation any production in the
81 literary, scientific and artistic domain, whatever may be the mode or
82 form of its expression including digital form, such as a book,
83 pamphlet and other writing; a lecture, address, sermon or other work
84 of the same nature; a dramatic or dramatico-musical work; a
85 choreographic work or entertainment in dumb show; a musical
86 composition with or without words; a cinematographic work to which are
87 assimilated works expressed by a process analogous to cinematography;
88 a work of drawing, painting, architecture, sculpture, engraving or
89 lithography; a photographic work to which are assimilated works
90 expressed by a process analogous to photography; a work of applied
91 art; an illustration, map, plan, sketch or three-dimensional work
92 relative to geography, topography, architecture or science; a
93 performance; a broadcast; a phonogram; a compilation of data to the
94 extent it is protected as a copyrightable work; or a work performed by
95 a variety or circus performer to the extent it is not otherwise
96 considered a literary or artistic work.
97 g. "You" means an individual or entity exercising rights under this
98 License who has not previously violated the terms of this License with
99 respect to the Work, or who has received express permission from the
100 Licensor to exercise rights under this License despite a previous
101 violation.
102 h. "Publicly Perform" means to perform public recitations of the Work and
103 to communicate to the public those public recitations, by any means or
104 process, including by wire or wireless means or public digital
105 performances; to make available to the public Works in such a way that
106 members of the public may access these Works from a place and at a
107 place individually chosen by them; to perform the Work to the public
108 by any means or process and the communication to the public of the
109 performances of the Work, including by public digital performance; to
110 broadcast and rebroadcast the Work by any means including signs,
111 sounds or images.
112 i. "Reproduce" means to make copies of the Work by any means including
113 without limitation by sound or visual recordings and the right of
114 fixation and reproducing fixations of the Work, including storage of a
115 protected performance or phonogram in digital form or other electronic
116 medium.
117
118 2. Fair Dealing Rights. Nothing in this License is intended to reduce,
119 limit, or restrict any uses free from copyright or rights arising from
120 limitations or exceptions that are provided for in connection with the
121 copyright protection under copyright law or other applicable laws.
122
123 3. License Grant. Subject to the terms and conditions of this License,
124 Licensor hereby grants You a worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive,
125 perpetual (for the duration of the applicable copyright) license to
126 exercise the rights in the Work as stated below:
127
128 a. to Reproduce the Work, to incorporate the Work into one or more
129 Collections, and to Reproduce the Work as incorporated in the
130 Collections;
131 b. to create and Reproduce Adaptations provided that any such Adaptation,
132 including any translation in any medium, takes reasonable steps to
133 clearly label, demarcate or otherwise identify that changes were made
134 to the original Work. For example, a translation could be marked "The
135 original work was translated from English to Spanish," or a
136 modification could indicate "The original work has been modified.";
137 c. to Distribute and Publicly Perform the Work including as incorporated
138 in Collections; and,
139 d. to Distribute and Publicly Perform Adaptations.
140
141 The above rights may be exercised in all media and formats whether now
142 known or hereafter devised. The above rights include the right to make
143 such modifications as are technically necessary to exercise the rights in
144 other media and formats. Subject to Section 8(f), all rights not expressly
145 granted by Licensor are hereby reserved, including but not limited to the
146 rights set forth in Section 4(d).
147
148 4. Restrictions. The license granted in Section 3 above is expressly made
149 subject to and limited by the following restrictions:
150
151 a. You may Distribute or Publicly Perform the Work only under the terms
152 of this License. You must include a copy of, or the Uniform Resource
153 Identifier (URI) for, this License with every copy of the Work You
154 Distribute or Publicly Perform. You may not offer or impose any terms
155 on the Work that restrict the terms of this License or the ability of
156 the recipient of the Work to exercise the rights granted to that
157 recipient under the terms of the License. You may not sublicense the
158 Work. You must keep intact all notices that refer to this License and
159 to the disclaimer of warranties with every copy of the Work You
160 Distribute or Publicly Perform. When You Distribute or Publicly
161 Perform the Work, You may not impose any effective technological
162 measures on the Work that restrict the ability of a recipient of the
163 Work from You to exercise the rights granted to that recipient under
164 the terms of the License. This Section 4(a) applies to the Work as
165 incorporated in a Collection, but this does not require the Collection
166 apart from the Work itself to be made subject to the terms of this
167 License. If You create a Collection, upon notice from any Licensor You
168 must, to the extent practicable, remove from the Collection any credit
169 as required by Section 4(c), as requested. If You create an
170 Adaptation, upon notice from any Licensor You must, to the extent
171 practicable, remove from the Adaptation any credit as required by
172 Section 4(c), as requested.
173 b. You may not exercise any of the rights granted to You in Section 3
174 above in any manner that is primarily intended for or directed toward
175 commercial advantage or private monetary compensation. The exchange of
176 the Work for other copyrighted works by means of digital file-sharing
177 or otherwise shall not be considered to be intended for or directed
178 toward commercial advantage or private monetary compensation, provided
179 there is no payment of any monetary compensation in connection with
180 the exchange of copyrighted works.
181 c. If You Distribute, or Publicly Perform the Work or any Adaptations or
182 Collections, You must, unless a request has been made pursuant to
183 Section 4(a), keep intact all copyright notices for the Work and
184 provide, reasonable to the medium or means You are utilizing: (i) the
185 name of the Original Author (or pseudonym, if applicable) if supplied,
186 and/or if the Original Author and/or Licensor designate another party
187 or parties (e.g., a sponsor institute, publishing entity, journal) for
188 attribution ("Attribution Parties") in Licensor's copyright notice,
189 terms of service or by other reasonable means, the name of such party
190 or parties; (ii) the title of the Work if supplied; (iii) to the
191 extent reasonably practicable, the URI, if any, that Licensor
192 specifies to be associated with the Work, unless such URI does not
193 refer to the copyright notice or licensing information for the Work;
194 and, (iv) consistent with Section 3(b), in the case of an Adaptation,
195 a credit identifying the use of the Work in the Adaptation (e.g.,
196 "French translation of the Work by Original Author," or "Screenplay
197 based on original Work by Original Author"). The credit required by
198 this Section 4(c) may be implemented in any reasonable manner;
199 provided, however, that in the case of a Adaptation or Collection, at
200 a minimum such credit will appear, if a credit for all contributing
201 authors of the Adaptation or Collection appears, then as part of these
202 credits and in a manner at least as prominent as the credits for the
203 other contributing authors. For the avoidance of doubt, You may only
204 use the credit required by this Section for the purpose of attribution
205 in the manner set out above and, by exercising Your rights under this
206 License, You may not implicitly or explicitly assert or imply any
207 connection with, sponsorship or endorsement by the Original Author,
208 Licensor and/or Attribution Parties, as appropriate, of You or Your
209 use of the Work, without the separate, express prior written
210 permission of the Original Author, Licensor and/or Attribution
211 Parties.
212 d. For the avoidance of doubt:
213
214 i. Non-waivable Compulsory License Schemes. In those jurisdictions in
215 which the right to collect royalties through any statutory or
216 compulsory licensing scheme cannot be waived, the Licensor
217 reserves the exclusive right to collect such royalties for any
218 exercise by You of the rights granted under this License;
219 ii. Waivable Compulsory License Schemes. In those jurisdictions in
220 which the right to collect royalties through any statutory or
221 compulsory licensing scheme can be waived, the Licensor reserves
222 the exclusive right to collect such royalties for any exercise by
223 You of the rights granted under this License if Your exercise of
224 such rights is for a purpose or use which is otherwise than
225 noncommercial as permitted under Section 4(b) and otherwise waives
226 the right to collect royalties through any statutory or compulsory
227 licensing scheme; and,
228 iii. Voluntary License Schemes. The Licensor reserves the right to
229 collect royalties, whether individually or, in the event that the
230 Licensor is a member of a collecting society that administers
231 voluntary licensing schemes, via that society, from any exercise
232 by You of the rights granted under this License that is for a
233 purpose or use which is otherwise than noncommercial as permitted
234 under Section 4(c).
235 e. Except as otherwise agreed in writing by the Licensor or as may be
236 otherwise permitted by applicable law, if You Reproduce, Distribute or
237 Publicly Perform the Work either by itself or as part of any
238 Adaptations or Collections, You must not distort, mutilate, modify or
239 take other derogatory action in relation to the Work which would be
240 prejudicial to the Original Author's honor or reputation. Licensor
241 agrees that in those jurisdictions (e.g. Japan), in which any exercise
242 of the right granted in Section 3(b) of this License (the right to
243 make Adaptations) would be deemed to be a distortion, mutilation,
244 modification or other derogatory action prejudicial to the Original
245 Author's honor and reputation, the Licensor will waive or not assert,
246 as appropriate, this Section, to the fullest extent permitted by the
247 applicable national law, to enable You to reasonably exercise Your
248 right under Section 3(b) of this License (right to make Adaptations)
249 but not otherwise.
250
251 5. Representations, Warranties and Disclaimer
252
253 UNLESS OTHERWISE MUTUALLY AGREED TO BY THE PARTIES IN WRITING, LICENSOR
254 OFFERS THE WORK AS-IS AND MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES OF ANY
255 KIND CONCERNING THE WORK, EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE,
256 INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, WARRANTIES OF TITLE, MERCHANTIBILITY,
257 FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NONINFRINGEMENT, OR THE ABSENCE OF
258 LATENT OR OTHER DEFECTS, ACCURACY, OR THE PRESENCE OF ABSENCE OF ERRORS,
259 WHETHER OR NOT DISCOVERABLE. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION
260 OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES, SO SUCH EXCLUSION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
261
262 6. Limitation on Liability. EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE
263 LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL LICENSOR BE LIABLE TO YOU ON ANY LEGAL THEORY FOR
264 ANY SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES
265 ARISING OUT OF THIS LICENSE OR THE USE OF THE WORK, EVEN IF LICENSOR HAS
266 BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
267
268 7. Termination
269
270 a. This License and the rights granted hereunder will terminate
271 automatically upon any breach by You of the terms of this License.
272 Individuals or entities who have received Adaptations or Collections
273 from You under this License, however, will not have their licenses
274 terminated provided such individuals or entities remain in full
275 compliance with those licenses. Sections 1, 2, 5, 6, 7, and 8 will
276 survive any termination of this License.
277 b. Subject to the above terms and conditions, the license granted here is
278 perpetual (for the duration of the applicable copyright in the Work).
279 Notwithstanding the above, Licensor reserves the right to release the
280 Work under different license terms or to stop distributing the Work at
281 any time; provided, however that any such election will not serve to
282 withdraw this License (or any other license that has been, or is
283 required to be, granted under the terms of this License), and this
284 License will continue in full force and effect unless terminated as
285 stated above.
286
287 8. Miscellaneous
288
289 a. Each time You Distribute or Publicly Perform the Work or a Collection,
290 the Licensor offers to the recipient a license to the Work on the same
291 terms and conditions as the license granted to You under this License.
292 b. Each time You Distribute or Publicly Perform an Adaptation, Licensor
293 offers to the recipient a license to the original Work on the same
294 terms and conditions as the license granted to You under this License.
295 c. If any provision of this License is invalid or unenforceable under
296 applicable law, it shall not affect the validity or enforceability of
297 the remainder of the terms of this License, and without further action
298 by the parties to this agreement, such provision shall be reformed to
299 the minimum extent necessary to make such provision valid and
300 enforceable.
301 d. No term or provision of this License shall be deemed waived and no
302 breach consented to unless such waiver or consent shall be in writing
303 and signed by the party to be charged with such waiver or consent.
304 e. This License constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with
305 respect to the Work licensed here. There are no understandings,
306 agreements or representations with respect to the Work not specified
307 here. Licensor shall not be bound by any additional provisions that
308 may appear in any communication from You. This License may not be
309 modified without the mutual written agreement of the Licensor and You.
310 f. The rights granted under, and the subject matter referenced, in this
311 License were drafted utilizing the terminology of the Berne Convention
312 for the Protection of Literary and Artistic Works (as amended on
313 September 28, 1979), the Rome Convention of 1961, the WIPO Copyright
314 Treaty of 1996, the WIPO Performances and Phonograms Treaty of 1996
315 and the Universal Copyright Convention (as revised on July 24, 1971).
316 These rights and subject matter take effect in the relevant
317 jurisdiction in which the License terms are sought to be enforced
318 according to the corresponding provisions of the implementation of
319 those treaty provisions in the applicable national law. If the
320 standard suite of rights granted under applicable copyright law
321 includes additional rights not granted under this License, such
322 additional rights are deemed to be included in the License; this
323 License is not intended to restrict the license of any rights under
324 applicable law.
