###SEACAS Individual Contributor License Agreement (“Agreement”)
|
||
|
|
||
|
Thank you for your interest in SEACAS (the “Project”). In order to
|
||
|
clarify the intellectual property license granted with Contributions
|
||
|
from any person or entity, the SEACAS copyright Holders (the
|
||
|
“Copyright Holders”) must have a Contributor License Agreement ("CLA")
|
||
|
on file that has been signed by each Contributor, indicating agreement
|
||
|
to the license terms below. This license is for your protection as a
|
||
|
Contributor as well as the protection of the Copyright Holders and
|
||
|
their users; it does not change your rights to use your own
|
||
|
Contributions for any other purpose.
|
||
|
|
||
|
You accept and agree to the following terms and conditions for Your
|
||
|
present and future Contributions submitted to the Copyright
|
||
|
Holders. In return, the Copyright Holders shall not use Your
|
||
|
Contributions in a way that is contrary to the public benefit. Except
|
||
|
for the license granted herein to the Copyright Holders and recipients
|
||
|
of software distributed by the Copyright Holders, You reserve all
|
||
|
right, title, and interest in and to Your Contributions.
|
||
|
|
||
|
1. Definitions.
|
||
|
|
||
|
"You" (or "Your") shall mean the copyright owner or legal entity
|
||
|
authorized by the copyright owner that is making this Agreement with
|
||
|
the Copyright Holders. For legal entities, the entity making a
|
||
|
Contribution and all other entities that control, are controlled by,
|
||
|
or are under common control with that entity are considered to be a
|
||
|
single Contributor. For the purposes of this definition, "control"
|
||
|
means (i) the power, direct or indirect, to cause the direction or
|
||
|
management of such entity, whether by contract or otherwise, or (ii)
|
||
|
ownership of fifty percent (50, 21%) or more of the outstanding
|
||
|
shares, or (iii) beneficial ownership of such entity.
|
||
|
|
||
|
"Contribution" shall mean any original work of authorship, including
|
||
|
any modifications or additions to an existing work, that is
|
||
|
intentionally submitted by You to the Copyright Holders for inclusion
|
||
|
in, or documentation of, any of the products owned or managed by the
|
||
|
Copyright Holders (the "Work"). For the purposes of this definition,
|
||
|
"submitted" means any form of electronic, verbal, or written
|
||
|
communication sent to the Copyright Holders or their representatives,
|
||
|
including but not limited to communication on electronic mailing
|
||
|
lists, source code control systems, and issue tracking systems that
|
||
|
are managed by, or on behalf of, the Copyright Holders for the purpose
|
||
|
of discussing and improving the Work, but excluding communication that
|
||
|
is conspicuously marked or otherwise designated in writing by You as
|
||
|
"Not a Contribution."
|
||
|
|
||
|
2. Grant of Copyright License. Subject to the terms and conditions of
|
||
|
this Agreement, You hereby grant to the Copyright Holders and to
|
||
|
recipients of software distributed by the Copyright Holders a
|
||
|
perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free,
|
||
|
irrevocable copyright license to reproduce, prepare derivative works
|
||
|
of, publicly display, publicly perform, sublicense, and distribute
|
||
|
Your Contributions and such derivative works.
|
||
|
|
||
|
3. Grant of Patent License. Subject to the terms and conditions of
|
||
|
this Agreement, You hereby grant to the Copyright Holders and to
|
||
|
recipients of software distributed by the Copyright Holders a
|
||
|
perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free,
|
||
|
irrevocable (except as stated in this section) patent license to make,
|
||
|
have made, use, offer to sell, sell, import, and otherwise transfer
|
||
|
the Work, where such license applies only to those patent claims
|
||
|
licensable by You that are necessarily infringed by Your
|
||
|
Contribution(s) alone or by combination of Your Contribution(s) with
|
||
|
the Work to which such Contribution(s) was submitted. If any entity
|
||
|
institutes patent litigation against You or any other entity
|
||
|
(including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that
|
||
|
your Contribution, or the Work to which you have contributed,
|
||
|
constitutes direct or contributory patent infringement, then any
|
||
|
patent licenses granted to that entity under this Agreement for that
|
||
|
Contribution or Work shall terminate as of the date such litigation is
|
||
|
filed.
|
||
|
|
||
|
4. You represent that you are legally entitled to grant the above
|
||
|
license. If your employer(s) has rights to intellectual property that
|
||
|
you create that includes your Contributions, you represent that you
|
||
|
have received permission to make Contributions on behalf of that
|
||
|
employer, that your employer has waived such rights for your
|
||
|
Contributions to the Copyright Holders, or that your employer has
|
||
|
executed a separate Corporate CLA with the Copyright Holders.
|
||
|
|
||
|
5. You represent that each of Your Contributions is Your original
|
||
|
creation (see section 7 for submissions on behalf of others). You
|
||
|
represent that Your Contribution submissions include complete details
|
||
|
of any third-party license or other restriction (including, but not
|
||
|
limited to, related patents and trademarks) of which you are
|
||
|
personally aware and which are associated with any part of Your
|
||
|
Contributions.
|
||
|
|
||
|
6. You are not expected to provide support for Your Contributions,
|
||
|
except to the extent You desire to provide support. You may provide
|
||
|
support for free, for a fee, or not at all. Unless required by
|
||
|
applicable law or agreed to in writing, You provide Your Contributions
|
||
|
on an "AS IS" BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND,
|
||
|
either express or implied, including, without limitation, any
|
||
|
warranties or conditions of TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY,
|
||
|
or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
|
||
|
|
||
|
7. Should You wish to submit work that is not Your original creation,
|
||
|
You may submit it to the Copyright Holders separately from any
|
||
|
Contribution, identifying the complete details of its source and of
|
||
|
any license or other restriction (including, but not limited to,
|
||
|
related patents, trademarks, and license agreements) of which you are
|
||
|
personally aware, and conspicuously marking the work as "Submitted on
|
||
|
behalf of a third-party: \[named here\]".
|
||
|
|
||
|
8. You agree to notify the Copyright Holders of any facts or
|
||
|
circumstances of which you become aware that would make these
|
||
|
representations inaccurate in any respect.
