("Creative Commons") is not a law firm and does not provide legal services
|

or legal advice. Distribution of Creative Commons public licenses does not
|
|
create a lawyer-client or other relationship. Creative Commons makes its licenses

and related information available on an "as-is" basis. Creative Commons gives

Using Creative Commons Public Licenses
|
|
|
|
Creative Commons public licenses provide a standard set of terms and conditions
|
|
that creators and other rights holders may use to share original works of
|
|
authorship and other material subject to copyright and certain other rights
|
|
specified in the public license below. The following considerations are for
|
|
informational purposes only, are not exhaustive, and do not form part of our
|
|
licenses.
|
|
|
|
Considerations for licensors: Our public licenses are intended for use by
|
|
those authorized to give the public permission to use material in ways otherwise
|
|
restricted by copyright and certain other rights. Our licenses are irrevocable.
|
|
Licensors should read and understand the terms and conditions of the license
|
|
they choose before applying it. Licensors should also secure all rights necessary
|
|
before applying our licenses so that the public can reuse the material as
|
|
expected. Licensors should clearly mark any material not subject to the license.
|
|
This includes other CC-licensed material, or material used under an exception
|
|
or limitation to copyright. More considerations for licensors : wiki.creativecommons.org/Considerations_for_licensors
|
|
|
|
Considerations for the public: By using one of our public licenses, a licensor
|
|
grants the public permission to use the licensed material under specified
|
|
terms and conditions. If the licensor's permission is not necessary for any
|
|
reason–for example, because of any applicable exception or limitation to copyright–then
|
|
that use is not regulated by the license. Our licenses grant only permissions
|
|
under copyright and certain other rights that a licensor has authority to
|
|
grant. Use of the licensed material may still be restricted for other reasons,
|
|
including because others have copyright or other rights in the material. A
|
|
licensor may make special requests, such as asking that all changes be marked
|
|
or described. Although not required by our licenses, you are encouraged to
|
|
respect those requests where reasonable. More considerations for the public

|
|
|
By exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to
|
|
be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution
|
|
4.0 International Public License ("Public License"). To the extent this Public
|
|
License may be interpreted as a contract, You are granted the Licensed Rights
|
|
in consideration of Your acceptance of these terms and conditions, and the
|
|
Licensor grants You such rights in consideration of benefits the Licensor
|
|
receives from making the Licensed Material available under these terms and
|
|
conditions.
|
|
|
|
Section 1 – Definitions.
|
|
|

|
|
Licensed Material is translated, altered, arranged, transformed, or otherwise
|
|
modified in a manner requiring permission under the Copyright and Similar
|
|
Rights held by the Licensor. For purposes of this Public License, where the
|
|

|
|
|
|
d. Effective Technological Measures means those measures that, in the absence
|
|
of proper authority, may not be circumvented under laws fulfilling obligations
|
|
under Article 11 of the WIPO Copyright Treaty adopted on December 20, 1996,

|
and/or similar international agreements.
|
|
|
|
e. Exceptions and Limitations means fair use, fair dealing, and/or any other
|
|
exception or limitation to Copyright and Similar Rights that applies to Your
|
|
use of the Licensed Material.

|
|
material to which the Licensor applied this Public License.

conditions of this Public License, which are limited to all Copyright and

|
|
|
|
h. Licensor means the individual(s) or entity(ies) granting rights under this
|
|
Public License.
|
|
|
|
i. Share means to provide material to the public by any means or process that
|
|
requires permission under the Licensed Rights, such as reproduction, public
|
|
display, public performance, distribution, dissemination, communication, or

that members of the public may access the material from a place and at a time
|
|
individually chosen by them.
|
|
|
|
j. Sui Generis Database Rights means rights other than copyright resulting
|
|
from Directive 96/9/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11

|
|
as well as other essentially equivalent rights anywhere in the world.
|
|
|
|
k. You means the individual or entity exercising the Licensed Rights under
|
|
this Public License. Your has a corresponding meaning.
|
|
|
|
Section 2 – Scope.
|
|
|
|
a. License grant.
|
|
|
|
1. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Public License, the Licensor
|
|
hereby grants You a worldwide, royalty-free, non-sublicensable, non-exclusive,
|
|
irrevocable license to exercise the Licensed Rights in the Licensed Material
|
|
to:
|
|
|
|
A. reproduce and Share the Licensed Material, in whole or in part; and
|
|
|
|
B. produce, reproduce, and Share Adapted Material.
|
|
|
|
2. Exceptions and Limitations. For the avoidance of doubt, where Exceptions
|
|
and Limitations apply to Your use, this Public License does not apply, and
|
|
You do not need to comply with its terms and conditions.
|
|
|
|
3. Term. The term of this Public License is specified in Section 6(a).
|
|
|
|
4. Media and formats; technical modifications allowed. The Licensor authorizes
|
|
You to exercise the Licensed Rights in all media and formats whether now known
|
|
or hereafter created, and to make technical modifications necessary to do
|
|
so. The Licensor waives and/or agrees not to assert any right or authority
|
|
to forbid You from making technical modifications necessary to exercise the
|
|
Licensed Rights, including technical modifications necessary to circumvent
|
|
Effective Technological Measures. For purposes of this Public License, simply
|
|
making modifications authorized by this Section 2(a)(4) never produces Adapted
|
|
Material.
|
|
|
|
5. Downstream recipients.
|
|
|
|
A. Offer from the Licensor – Licensed Material. Every recipient of the Licensed
|
|
Material automatically receives an offer from the Licensor to exercise the
|
|
Licensed Rights under the terms and conditions of this Public License.
|
|
|
|
B. No downstream restrictions. You may not offer or impose any additional
|
|
or different terms or conditions on, or apply any Effective Technological
|
|
Measures to, the Licensed Material if doing so restricts exercise of the Licensed
|
|
Rights by any recipient of the Licensed Material.
|
|
|
|
6. No endorsement. Nothing in this Public License constitutes or may be construed
|
|
as permission to assert or imply that You are, or that Your use of the Licensed
|
|
Material is, connected with, or sponsored, endorsed, or granted official status
|
|
by, the Licensor or others designated to receive attribution as provided in
|
|
Section 3(a)(1)(A)(i).
|
|
|
|
b. Other rights.
|
|
|
|
1. Moral rights, such as the right of integrity, are not licensed under this
|
|
Public License, nor are publicity, privacy, and/or other similar personality
|
|
rights; however, to the extent possible, the Licensor waives and/or agrees
|
|
not to assert any such rights held by the Licensor to the limited extent necessary
|
|
to allow You to exercise the Licensed Rights, but not otherwise.
|
|
|
|
2. Patent and trademark rights are not licensed under this Public License.
|
|
|
|
3. To the extent possible, the Licensor waives any right to collect royalties
|
|
from You for the exercise of the Licensed Rights, whether directly or through
|
|
a collecting society under any voluntary or waivable statutory or compulsory
|
|
licensing scheme. In all other cases the Licensor expressly reserves any right
|
|
to collect such royalties.
|
|
|
|
Section 3 – License Conditions.
|
|
|
|
Your exercise of the Licensed Rights is expressly made subject to the following
|
|
conditions.
|
|
|
|
a. Attribution.
|
|
|
|
1. If You Share the Licensed Material (including in modified form), You must:
|
|
|
|
A. retain the following if it is supplied by the Licensor with the Licensed
|
|
Material:
|
|
|
|
i. identification of the creator(s) of the Licensed Material and any others
|
|
designated to receive attribution, in any reasonable manner requested by the
|
|
Licensor (including by pseudonym if designated);
|
|
|
|
ii. a copyright notice;
|
|
|
|
iii. a notice that refers to this Public License;
|
|
|
|
iv. a notice that refers to the disclaimer of warranties;
|
|
|
|
v. a URI or hyperlink to the Licensed Material to the extent reasonably practicable;
|
|
|
|
B. indicate if You modified the Licensed Material and retain an indication
|
|
of any previous modifications; and
|
|
|
|
C. indicate the Licensed Material is licensed under this Public License, and
|
|
include the text of, or the URI or hyperlink to, this Public License.
|
|
|
|
2. You may satisfy the conditions in Section 3(a)(1) in any reasonable manner
|
|
based on the medium, means, and context in which You Share the Licensed Material.
|
|
For example, it may be reasonable to satisfy the conditions by providing a
|
|
URI or hyperlink to a resource that includes the required information.
|
|
|
|
3. If requested by the Licensor, You must remove any of the information required
|
|
by Section 3(a)(1)(A) to the extent reasonably practicable.
|
|
|
|
4. If You Share Adapted Material You produce, the Adapter's License You apply
|
|
must not prevent recipients of the Adapted Material from complying with this
|
|
Public License.
|
|
|
|
Section 4 – Sui Generis Database Rights.
|
|
|
|
Where the Licensed Rights include Sui Generis Database Rights that apply to
|
|
Your use of the Licensed Material:
|
|
|
|
a. for the avoidance of doubt, Section 2(a)(1) grants You the right to extract,
|
|
reuse, reproduce, and Share all or a substantial portion of the contents of
|
|
the database;
|
|
|
|
b. if You include all or a substantial portion of the database contents in
|
|
a database in which You have Sui Generis Database Rights, then the database
|
|
in which You have Sui Generis Database Rights (but not its individual contents)
|
|
is Adapted Material; and
|
|
|
|
c. You must comply with the conditions in Section 3(a) if You Share all or
|
|
a substantial portion of the contents of the database.
|
|
|
|
For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 4 supplements and does not replace
|
|
Your obligations under this Public License where the Licensed Rights include
|
|
other Copyright and Similar Rights.
|
|
|
|
Section 5 – Disclaimer of Warranties and Limitation of Liability.
|
|
|
|
a. Unless otherwise separately undertaken by the Licensor, to the extent possible,
|
|
the Licensor offers the Licensed Material as-is and as-available, and makes
|
|
no representations or warranties of any kind concerning the Licensed Material,
|
|
whether express, implied, statutory, or other. This includes, without limitation,
|
|
warranties of title, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement,
|
|
absence of latent or other defects, accuracy, or the presence or absence of
|
|
errors, whether or not known or discoverable. Where disclaimers of warranties
|
|
are not allowed in full or in part, this disclaimer may not apply to You.
|
|
|
|
b. To the extent possible, in no event will the Licensor be liable to You
|
|
on any legal theory (including, without limitation, negligence) or otherwise
|
|
for any direct, special, indirect, incidental, consequential, punitive, exemplary,
|
|
or other losses, costs, expenses, or damages arising out of this Public License
|
|
or use of the Licensed Material, even if the Licensor has been advised of
|
|
the possibility of such losses, costs, expenses, or damages. Where a limitation
|
|
of liability is not allowed in full or in part, this limitation may not apply
|
|
to You.
|
|
|
|
c. The disclaimer of warranties and limitation of liability provided above
|
|
shall be interpreted in a manner that, to the extent possible, most closely
|
|
approximates an absolute disclaimer and waiver of all liability.
|
|
|
|
Section 6 – Term and Termination.
|
|
|
|
a. This Public License applies for the term of the Copyright and Similar Rights
|
|
licensed here. However, if You fail to comply with this Public License, then
|
|
Your rights under this Public License terminate automatically.
|
|
|
|
b. Where Your right to use the Licensed Material has terminated under Section
|
|
6(a), it reinstates:
|
|
|
|
1. automatically as of the date the violation is cured, provided it is cured
|
|
within 30 days of Your discovery of the violation; or
|
|
|
|
2. upon express reinstatement by the Licensor.
|
|
|
|
c. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 6(b) does not affect any right
|
|
the Licensor may have to seek remedies for Your violations of this Public
|
|
License.
|
|
|
|
d. For the avoidance of doubt, the Licensor may also offer the Licensed Material
|
|
under separate terms or conditions or stop distributing the Licensed Material
|
|
at any time; however, doing so will not terminate this Public License.
|
|
|
|
e. Sections 1, 5, 6, 7, and 8 survive termination of this Public License.
|
|
|
|
Section 7 – Other Terms and Conditions.
|
|
|
|
a. The Licensor shall not be bound by any additional or different terms or
|
|
conditions communicated by You unless expressly agreed.
|
|
|
|
b. Any arrangements, understandings, or agreements regarding the Licensed
|
|
Material not stated herein are separate from and independent of the terms
|
|
and conditions of this Public License.
|
|
|
|
Section 8 – Interpretation.
|
|
|
|
a. For the avoidance of doubt, this Public License does not, and shall not
|
|
be interpreted to, reduce, limit, restrict, or impose conditions on any use
|
|
of the Licensed Material that could lawfully be made without permission under
|
|
this Public License.
|
|
|
|
b. To the extent possible, if any provision of this Public License is deemed
|
|
unenforceable, it shall be automatically reformed to the minimum extent necessary
|
|
to make it enforceable. If the provision cannot be reformed, it shall be severed
|
|
from this Public License without affecting the enforceability of the remaining
|
|
terms and conditions.
|
|
|
|
c. No term or condition of this Public License will be waived and no failure
|
|
to comply consented to unless expressly agreed to by the Licensor.
|
|
|
|
d. Nothing in this Public License constitutes or may be interpreted as a limitation
|
|
upon, or waiver of, any privileges and immunities that apply to the Licensor
|
|
or You, including from the legal processes of any jurisdiction or authority.
