Creative Commons Corporation ("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 no
|
|
warranties regarding its licenses, any material licensed under their
|
|
terms and conditions, or any related information. Creative Commons

disclaims all liability for damages resulting from their use to the
|
|
fullest extent possible.

|
|
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.

|
|
|
|
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.

Attribution-ShareAlike 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

absence of proper authority, may not be circumvented under laws

chosen by them.
|
|
l. "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 March 1996 on the legal protection of databases,
|
|
as amended and/or succeeded, as well as other essentially equivalent

|
|

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. Additional offer from the Licensor - Adapted Material. Every
|
|
recipient of Adapted Material from You automatically
|
|
receives an offer from the Licensor to exercise the Licensed
|
|
Rights in the Adapted Material under the conditions of the
|
|
Adapter's License You apply.
|
|
C. 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.
|
|
|
|
b. ShareAlike.
|
|
|
|
In addition to the conditions in Section 3(a), if You Share Adapted
|
|
Material You produce, the following conditions also apply.
|
|
|
|
1. The Adapter's License You apply must be a Creative Commons
|
|
license with the same License Elements, this version or later,
|
|
or a BY-SA Compatible License.
|
|
2. You must include the text of, or the URI or hyperlink to, the
|
|
Adapter's License You apply. You may satisfy this condition in
|
|
any reasonable manner based on the medium, means, and context in
|
|
which You Share Adapted Material.
|
|
3. You may not offer or impose any additional or different terms or
|
|
conditions on, or apply any Effective Technological Measures to,
|
|
Adapted Material that restrict exercise of the rights granted
|
|
under the Adapter's License You apply.
|
|
|
|
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, including for purposes
|
|
of Section 3(b); 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.
|
|
|
|
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.
|
|
c. 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.
|
|
d. 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.
