20 LEGAL SERVICES. DISTRIBUTION OF THIS LICENSE DOES NOT CREATE AN
21 ATTORNEY-CLIENT RELATIONSHIP. CREATIVE COMMONS PROVIDES THIS INFORMATION

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. THE LICENSOR GRANTS YOU THE
35 RIGHTS CONTAINED HERE IN CONSIDERATION OF YOUR ACCEPTANCE OF SUCH TERMS
36 AND CONDITIONS.
37
38 *1. Definitions*
39
40 1. *"Collective Work"* means a work, such as a periodical issue,
41 anthology or encyclopedia, in which the Work in its entirety in
42 unmodified form, along with a number of other contributions,
43 constituting separate and independent works in themselves, are
44 assembled into a collective whole. A work that constitutes a
45 Collective Work will not be considered a Derivative Work (as
46 defined below) for the purposes of this License.
47 2. *"Derivative Work"* means a work based upon the Work or upon the
48 Work and other pre-existing works, such as a translation, musical
49 arrangement, dramatization, fictionalization, motion picture
50 version, sound recording, art reproduction, abridgment,
51 condensation, or any other form in which the Work may be recast,
52 transformed, or adapted, except that a work that constitutes a
53 Collective Work will not be considered a Derivative Work for the
54 purpose of this License. For the avoidance of doubt, where the
55 Work is a musical composition or sound recording, the
56 synchronization of the Work in timed-relation with a moving image
57 ("synching") will be considered a Derivative Work for the purpose
58 of this License.
59 3. *"Licensor"* means the individual or entity that offers the Work
60 under the terms of this License.
61 4. *"Original Author"* means the individual or entity who created the
62 Work.
63 5. *"Work"* means the copyrightable work of authorship offered under
64 the terms of this License.
65 6. *"You"* means an individual or entity exercising rights under this
66 License who has not previously violated the terms of this License
67 with respect to the Work, or who has received express permission
68 from the Licensor to exercise rights under this License despite a
69 previous violation.
70 7. *"License Elements"* means the following high-level license
71 attributes as selected by Licensor and indicated in the title of
72 this License: Attribution, Noncommercial, ShareAlike.
73
74 *2. Fair Use Rights.* Nothing in this license is intended to reduce,
75 limit, or restrict any rights arising from fair use, first sale or other
76 limitations on the exclusive rights of the copyright owner under
77 copyright law or other applicable laws.
78
79 *3. License Grant.* Subject to the terms and conditions of this License,
80 Licensor hereby grants You a worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive,
81 perpetual (for the duration of the applicable copyright) license to
82 exercise the rights in the Work as stated below:
83
84 1. to reproduce the Work, to incorporate the Work into one or more
85 Collective Works, and to reproduce the Work as incorporated in the
86 Collective Works;
87 2. to create and reproduce Derivative Works;
88 3. to distribute copies or phonorecords of, display publicly, perform
89 publicly, and perform publicly by means of a digital audio
90 transmission the Work including as incorporated in Collective Works;
91 4. to distribute copies or phonorecords of, display publicly, perform
92 publicly, and perform publicly by means of a digital audio
93 transmission Derivative Works;
94
95 The above rights may be exercised in all media and formats whether now
96 known or hereafter devised. The above rights include the right to make
97 such modifications as are technically necessary to exercise the rights
98 in other media and formats. All rights not expressly granted by Licensor
99 are hereby reserved, including but not limited to the rights set forth
100 in Sections 4(e) and 4(f).
101
102 *4. Restrictions.*The license granted in Section 3 above is expressly
103 made subject to and limited by the following restrictions:
104
105 1. You may distribute, publicly display, publicly perform, or
106 publicly digitally perform the Work only under the terms of this
107 License, and You must include a copy of, or the Uniform Resource
108 Identifier for, this License with every copy or phonorecord of the
109 Work You distribute, publicly display, publicly perform, or
110 publicly digitally perform. You may not offer or impose any terms
111 on the Work that alter or restrict the terms of this License or
112 the recipients' exercise of the rights granted hereunder. You may
113 not sublicense the Work. You must keep intact all notices that
114 refer to this License and to the disclaimer of warranties. You may
115 not distribute, publicly display, publicly perform, or publicly
116 digitally perform the Work with any technological measures that
117 control access or use of the Work in a manner inconsistent with
118 the terms of this License Agreement. The above applies to the Work
119 as incorporated in a Collective Work, but this does not require
120 the Collective Work apart from the Work itself to be made subject
121 to the terms of this License. If You create a Collective Work,
122 upon notice from any Licensor You must, to the extent practicable,
123 remove from the Collective Work any credit as required by clause
124 4(d), as requested. If You create a Derivative Work, upon notice
125 from any Licensor You must, to the extent practicable, remove from
126 the Derivative Work any credit as required by clause 4(d), as
127 requested.
128 2. You may distribute, publicly display, publicly perform, or
129 publicly digitally perform a Derivative Work only under the terms
130 of this License, a later version of this License with the same
131 License Elements as this License, or a Creative Commons iCommons
132 license that contains the same License Elements as this License
133 (e.g. Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 2.5 Japan). You must
134 include a copy of, or the Uniform Resource Identifier for, this
135 License or other license specified in the previous sentence with
136 every copy or phonorecord of each Derivative Work You distribute,
137 publicly display, publicly perform, or publicly digitally perform.
138 You may not offer or impose any terms on the Derivative Works that
139 alter or restrict the terms of this License or the recipients'
140 exercise of the rights granted hereunder, and You must keep intact
141 all notices that refer to this License and to the disclaimer of
142 warranties. You may not distribute, publicly display, publicly
143 perform, or publicly digitally perform the Derivative Work with
144 any technological measures that control access or use of the Work
145 in a manner inconsistent with the terms of this License Agreement.
146 The above applies to the Derivative Work as incorporated in a
147 Collective Work, but this does not require the Collective Work
148 apart from the Derivative Work itself to be made subject to the
149 terms of this License.
150 3. You may not exercise any of the rights granted to You in Section 3
151 above in any manner that is primarily intended for or directed
152 toward commercial advantage or private monetary compensation. The
153 exchange of the Work for other copyrighted works by means of
154 digital file-sharing or otherwise shall not be considered to be
155 intended for or directed toward commercial advantage or private
156 monetary compensation, provided there is no payment of any
157 monetary compensation in connection with the exchange of
158 copyrighted works.
159 4. If you distribute, publicly display, publicly perform, or publicly
160 digitally perform the Work or any Derivative Works or Collective
161 Works, You must keep intact all copyright notices for the Work and
162 provide, reasonable to the medium or means You are utilizing: (i)
163 the name of the Original Author (or pseudonym, if applicable) if
164 supplied, and/or (ii) if the Original Author and/or Licensor
165 designate another party or parties (e.g. a sponsor institute,
166 publishing entity, journal) for attribution in Licensor's
167 copyright notice, terms of service or by other reasonable means,
168 the name of such party or parties; the title of the Work if
169 supplied; to the extent reasonably practicable, the Uniform
170 Resource Identifier, if any, that Licensor specifies to be
171 associated with the Work, unless such URI does not refer to the
172 copyright notice or licensing information for the Work; and in the
173 case of a Derivative Work, a credit identifying the use of the
174 Work in the Derivative Work (e.g., "French translation of the Work
175 by Original Author," or "Screenplay based on original Work by
176 Original Author"). Such credit may be implemented in any
177 reasonable manner; provided, however, that in the case of a
178 Derivative Work or Collective Work, at a minimum such credit will
179 appear where any other comparable authorship credit appears and in
180 a manner at least as prominent as such other comparable authorship
181 credit.
182 5.
183
184 For the avoidance of doubt, where the Work is a musical composition:
185
186 1. *Performance Royalties Under Blanket Licenses*. Licensor
187 reserves the exclusive right to collect, whether
188 individually or via a performance rights society (e.g.
189 ASCAP, BMI, SESAC), royalties for the public performance or
190 public digital performance (e.g. webcast) of the Work if
191 that performance is primarily intended for or directed
192 toward commercial advantage or private monetary compensation.
193 2. *Mechanical Rights and Statutory Royalties*. Licensor
194 reserves the exclusive right to collect, whether
195 individually or via a music rights agency or designated
196 agent (e.g. Harry Fox Agency), royalties for any phonorecord
197 You create from the Work ("cover version") and distribute,
198 subject to the compulsory license created by 17 USC Section
199 115 of the US Copyright Act (or the equivalent in other
200 jurisdictions), if Your distribution of such cover version
201 is primarily intended for or directed toward commercial
202 advantage or private monetary compensation.
203 6. *Webcasting Rights and Statutory Royalties*. For the avoidance of
204 doubt, where the Work is a sound recording, Licensor reserves the
205 exclusive right to collect, whether individually or via a
206 performance-rights society (e.g. SoundExchange), royalties for the
207 public digital performance (e.g. webcast) of the Work, subject to
208 the compulsory license created by 17 USC Section 114 of the US
209 Copyright Act (or the equivalent in other jurisdictions), if Your
210 public digital performance is primarily intended for or directed
211 toward commercial advantage or private monetary compensation.
212
213 *5. Representations, Warranties and Disclaimer*
214
215 UNLESS OTHERWISE MUTUALLY AGREED TO BY THE PARTIES IN WRITING, LICENSOR
216 OFFERS THE WORK AS-IS AND MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES OF ANY
217 KIND CONCERNING THE WORK, EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE,
218 INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, WARRANTIES OF TITLE, MERCHANTIBILITY,
219 FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NONINFRINGEMENT, OR THE ABSENCE OF
220 LATENT OR OTHER DEFECTS, ACCURACY, OR THE PRESENCE OF ABSENCE OF ERRORS,
221 WHETHER OR NOT DISCOVERABLE. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE
222 EXCLUSION OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES, SO SUCH EXCLUSION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
223
224 *6. Limitation on Liability.* EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT REQUIRED BY
225 APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL LICENSOR BE LIABLE TO YOU ON ANY LEGAL
226 THEORY FOR ANY SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR EXEMPLARY
227 DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THIS LICENSE OR THE USE OF THE WORK, EVEN IF
228 LICENSOR HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
229
230 *7. Termination*
231
232 1. This License and the rights granted hereunder will terminate
233 automatically upon any breach by You of the terms of this License.
234 Individuals or entities who have received Derivative Works or
235 Collective Works from You under this License, however, will not
236 have their licenses terminated provided such individuals or
237 entities remain in full compliance with those licenses. Sections
238 1, 2, 5, 6, 7, and 8 will survive any termination of this License.
239 2. Subject to the above terms and conditions, the license granted
240 here is perpetual (for the duration of the applicable copyright in
241 the Work). Notwithstanding the above, Licensor reserves the right
242 to release the Work under different license terms or to stop
243 distributing the Work at any time; provided, however that any such
244 election will not serve to withdraw this License (or any other
245 license that has been, or is required to be, granted under the
246 terms of this License), and this License will continue in full
247 force and effect unless terminated as stated above.
248
249 *8. Miscellaneous*
250
251 1. Each time You distribute or publicly digitally perform the Work or
252 a Collective Work, the Licensor offers to the recipient a license
253 to the Work on the same terms and conditions as the license
254 granted to You under this License.
255 2. Each time You distribute or publicly digitally perform a
256 Derivative Work, Licensor offers to the recipient a license to the
257 original Work on the same terms and conditions as the license
258 granted to You under this License.
259 3. If any provision of this License is invalid or unenforceable under
260 applicable law, it shall not affect the validity or enforceability
261 of the remainder of the terms of this License, and without further
262 action by the parties to this agreement, such provision shall be
263 reformed to the minimum extent necessary to make such provision
264 valid and enforceable.
265 4. No term or provision of this License shall be deemed waived and no
266 breach consented to unless such waiver or consent shall be in
267 writing and signed by the party to be charged with such waiver or
268 consent.
269 5. This License constitutes the entire agreement between the parties
270 with respect to the Work licensed here. There are no
271 understandings, agreements or representations with respect to the
272 Work not specified here. Licensor shall not be bound by any
273 additional provisions that may appear in any communication from
274 You. This License may not be modified without the mutual written
275 agreement of the Licensor and You.
276
277 Creative Commons is not a party to this License, and makes no warranty
278 whatsoever in connection with the Work. Creative Commons will not be
279 liable to You or any party on any legal theory for any damages
280 whatsoever, including without limitation any general, special,
281 incidental or consequential damages arising in connection to this
282 license. Notwithstanding the foregoing two (2) sentences, if Creative
283 Commons has expressly identified itself as the Licensor hereunder, it
284 shall have all rights and obligations of Licensor.
285
286 Except for the limited purpose of indicating to the public that the Work
287 is licensed under the CCPL, neither party will use the trademark
288 "Creative Commons" or any related trademark or logo of Creative Commons
289 without the prior written consent of Creative Commons. Any permitted use
290 will be in compliance with Creative Commons' then-current trademark
