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.

Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License
|
||
|
||
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.
|
||
|
||
a. Adapted Material means material subject to Copyright and Similar Rights that is derived from or
|
||
based upon the Licensed Material and in which the 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
|
||
Licensed Material is a musical work, performance, or sound recording, Adapted Material is
|
||
always produced where the Licensed Material is synched in timed relation with a moving image.
|
||
b. Adapter's License means the license You apply to Your Copyright and Similar Rights in Your
|
||
contributions to Adapted Material in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Public
|
||
License.
|
||
c. Copyright and Similar Rights means copyright and/or similar rights closely related to copyright
|
||
including, without limitation, performance, broadcast, sound recording, and Sui Generis
|
||
Database Rights, without regard to how the rights are labeled or categorized. For purposes of
|
||
this Public License, the rights specified in Section 2(b)(1)-(2) are not Copyright and Similar Rights.
|
||
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.
|
||
f. Licensed Material means the artistic or literary work, database, or other material to which the
|
||
Licensor applied this Public License.
|
||
g. Licensed Rights means the rights granted to You subject to the terms and conditions of this
|
||
Public License, which are limited to all Copyright and Similar Rights that apply to Your use of the
|
||
Licensed Material and that the Licensor has authority to license.
|
||
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 importation, and to make material available to
|
||
the public including in ways 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 March 1996 on the legal protection of
|
||
databases, as amended and/or succeeded, 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.
|
||
|
||
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.
