- GNU AFFERO GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
- Version 3, 19 November 2007
-
-
- Copyright © 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc. <
- https://fsf.org/>
-
- Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this license document,
- but changing it is not allowed.
-
-
- Preamble
-
-
- The GNU Affero General Public License is a free, copyleft license for software and
- other kinds of works, specifically designed to ensure cooperation with the community
- in the case of network server software.
-
-
-
- The licenses for most software and other practical works are designed to take away
- your freedom to share and change the works. By contrast, our General Public Licenses
- are intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change all versions of a
- program--to make sure it remains free software for all its users.
-
-
-
- When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not price. Our General
- Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you have the freedom to distribute
- copies of free software (and charge for them if you wish), that you receive source
- code or can get it if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of
- it in new free programs, and that you know you can do these things.
-
-
-
- Developers that use our General Public Licenses protect your rights with two steps:
- (1) assert copyright on the software, and (2) offer you this License which gives you
- legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the software.
-
-
-
- A secondary benefit of defending all users' freedom is that improvements made in
- alternate versions of the program, if they receive widespread use, become available
- for other developers to incorporate. Many developers of free software are heartened
- and encouraged by the resulting cooperation. However, in the case of software used on
- network servers, this result may fail to come about. The GNU General Public License
- permits making a modified version and letting the public access it on a server without
- ever releasing its source code to the public.
-
-
-
- The GNU Affero General Public License is designed specifically to ensure that, in such
- cases, the modified source code becomes available to the community. It requires the
- operator of a network server to provide the source code of the modified version
- running there to the users of that server. Therefore, public use of a modified
- version, on a publicly accessible server, gives the public access to the source code
- of the modified version.
-
-
-
- An older license, called the Affero General Public License and published by Affero,
- was designed to accomplish similar goals. This is a different license, not a version
- of the Affero GPL, but Affero has released a new version of the Affero GPL which
- permits relicensing under this license.
-
-
-
- The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and modification follow.
-
-
- TERMS AND CONDITIONS
-
- 0. Definitions.
-
-
- "This License" refers to version 3 of the GNU Affero General Public License.
-
-
-
- "Copyright" also means copyright-like laws that apply to other kinds of
- works, such as semiconductor masks.
-
-
-
- "The Program" refers to any copyrightable work licensed under this License.
- Each licensee is addressed as "you". "Licensees" and
- "recipients" may be individuals or organizations.
-
-
-
- To "modify" a work means to copy from or adapt all or part of the work in a
- fashion requiring copyright permission, other than the making of an exact copy. The
- resulting work is called a "modified version" of the earlier work or a work
- "based on" the earlier work.
-
-
-
- A "covered work" means either the unmodified Program or a work based on the
- Program.
-
-
-
- To "propagate" a work means to do anything with it that, without permission,
- would make you directly or secondarily liable for infringement under applicable
- copyright law, except executing it on a computer or modifying a private copy.
- Propagation includes copying, distribution (with or without modification), making
- available to the public, and in some countries other activities as well.
-
-
-
- To "convey" a work means any kind of propagation that enables other parties
- to make or receive copies. Mere interaction with a user through a computer network,
- with no transfer of a copy, is not conveying.
-
-
-
- An interactive user interface displays "Appropriate Legal Notices" to the
- extent that it includes a convenient and prominently visible feature that (1) displays
- an appropriate copyright notice, and (2) tells the user that there is no warranty for
- the work (except to the extent that warranties are provided), that licensees may
- convey the work under this License, and how to view a copy of this License. If the
- interface presents a list of user commands or options, such as a menu, a prominent
- item in the list meets this criterion.
-
-
- 1. Source Code.
-
-
- The "source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work for making
- modifications to it. "Object code" means any non-source form of a work.
-
-
-
- A "Standard Interface" means an interface that either is an official
- standard defined by a recognized standards body, or, in the case of interfaces
- specified for a particular programming language, one that is widely used among
- developers working in that language.
-
-
-
- The "System Libraries" of an executable work include anything, other than
- the work as a whole, that (a) is included in the normal form of packaging a Major
- Component, but which is not part of that Major Component, and (b) serves only to
- enable use of the work with that Major Component, or to implement a Standard Interface
- for which an implementation is available to the public in source code form. A
- "Major Component", in this context, means a major essential component
- (kernel, window system, and so on) of the specific operating system (if any) on which
- the executable work runs, or a compiler used to produce the work, or an object code
- interpreter used to run it.
-
-
-
- The "Corresponding Source" for a work in object code form means all the
- source code needed to generate, install, and (for an executable work) run the object
- code and to modify the work, including scripts to control those activities. However,
- it does not include the work's System Libraries, or general-purpose tools or
- generally available free programs which are used unmodified in performing those
- activities but which are not part of the work. For example, Corresponding Source
- includes interface definition files associated with source files for the work, and the
- source code for shared libraries and dynamically linked subprograms that the work is
- specifically designed to require, such as by intimate data communication or control
- flow between those subprograms and other parts of the work.
-
-
-
- The Corresponding Source need not include anything that users can regenerate
- automatically from other parts of the Corresponding Source.
-
-
- The Corresponding Source for a work in source code form is that same work.
-
- 2. Basic Permissions.
-
-
- All rights granted under this License are granted for the term of copyright on the
- Program, and are irrevocable provided the stated conditions are met. This License
- explicitly affirms your unlimited permission to run the unmodified Program. The output
- from running a covered work is covered by this License only if the output, given its
- content, constitutes a covered work. This License acknowledges your rights of fair use
- or other equivalent, as provided by copyright law.
-
-
-
- You may make, run and propagate covered works that you do not convey, without
- conditions so long as your license otherwise remains in force. You may convey covered
- works to others for the sole purpose of having them make modifications exclusively for
- you, or provide you with facilities for running those works, provided that you comply
- with the terms of this License in conveying all material for which you do not control
- copyright. Those thus making or running the covered works for you must do so
- exclusively on your behalf, under your direction and control, on terms that prohibit
- them from making any copies of your copyrighted material outside their relationship
- with you.
-
-
-
- Conveying under any other circumstances is permitted solely under the conditions
- stated below. Sublicensing is not allowed; section 10 makes it unnecessary.
-
-
-
- 3. Protecting Users' Legal Rights From Anti-Circumvention Law.
-
-
-
- No covered work shall be deemed part of an effective technological measure under any
- applicable law fulfilling obligations under article 11 of the WIPO copyright treaty
- adopted on 20 December 1996, or similar laws prohibiting or restricting circumvention
- of such measures.
-
-
-
- When you convey a covered work, you waive any legal power to forbid circumvention of
- technological measures to the extent such circumvention is effected by exercising
- rights under this License with respect to the covered work, and you disclaim any
- intention to limit operation or modification of the work as a means of enforcing,
- against the work's users, your or third parties' legal rights to forbid
- circumvention of technological measures.
-
-
- 4. Conveying Verbatim Copies.
-
-
- You may convey verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you receive it, in
- any medium, provided that you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an
- appropriate copyright notice; keep intact all notices stating that this License and
- any non-permissive terms added in accord with section 7 apply to the code; keep intact
- all notices of the absence of any warranty; and give all recipients a copy of this
- License along with the Program.
-
-
-
- You may charge any price or no price for each copy that you convey, and you may offer
- support or warranty protection for a fee.
-
-
- 5. Conveying Modified Source Versions.
-
-
- You may convey a work based on the Program, or the modifications to produce it from
- the Program, in the form of source code under the terms of section 4, provided that
- you also meet all of these conditions:
-
-
-
- -
- a) The work must carry prominent notices stating that you modified it, and giving a
- relevant date.
-
-
- -
- b) The work must carry prominent notices stating that it is released under this
- License and any conditions added under section 7. This requirement modifies the
- requirement in section 4 to "keep intact all notices".
-
-
- -
- c) You must license the entire work, as a whole, under this License to anyone who
- comes into possession of a copy. This License will therefore apply, along with any
- applicable section 7 additional terms, to the whole of the work, and all its parts,
- regardless of how they are packaged. This License gives no permission to license the
- work in any other way, but it does not invalidate such permission if you have
- separately received it.
-
-
- -
- d) If the work has interactive user interfaces, each must display Appropriate Legal
- Notices; however, if the Program has interactive interfaces that do not display
- Appropriate Legal Notices, your work need not make them do so.
-
-
-
-
- A compilation of a covered work with other separate and independent works, which are
- not by their nature extensions of the covered work, and which are not combined with it
- such as to form a larger program, in or on a volume of a storage or distribution
- medium, is called an "aggregate" if the compilation and its resulting
- copyright are not used to limit the access or legal rights of the compilation's
- users beyond what the individual works permit. Inclusion of a covered work in an
- aggregate does not cause this License to apply to the other parts of the aggregate.
-
-
- 6. Conveying Non-Source Forms.
-
-
- You may convey a covered work in object code form under the terms of sections 4 and 5,
- provided that you also convey the machine-readable Corresponding Source under the
- terms of this License, in one of these ways:
-
-
-
- -
- a) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product (including a
- physical distribution medium), accompanied by the Corresponding Source fixed on a
- durable physical medium customarily used for software interchange.
-
-
- -
- b) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product (including a
- physical distribution medium), accompanied by a written offer, valid for at least
- three years and valid for as long as you offer spare parts or customer support for
- that product model, to give anyone who possesses the object code either (1) a copy
- of the Corresponding Source for all the software in the product that is covered by
- this License, on a durable physical medium customarily used for software
- interchange, for a price no more than your reasonable cost of physically performing
- this conveying of source, or (2) access to copy the Corresponding Source from a
- network server at no charge.
-
-
- -
- c) Convey individual copies of the object code with a copy of the written offer to
- provide the Corresponding Source. This alternative is allowed only occasionally and
- noncommercially, and only if you received the object code with such an offer, in
- accord with subsection 6b.
-
-
- -
- d) Convey the object code by offering access from a designated place (gratis or for
- a charge), and offer equivalent access to the Corresponding Source in the same way
- through the same place at no further charge. You need not require recipients to copy
- the Corresponding Source along with the object code. If the place to copy the object
- code is a network server, the Corresponding Source may be on a different server
- (operated by you or a third party) that supports equivalent copying facilities,
- provided you maintain clear directions next to the object code saying where to find
- the Corresponding Source. Regardless of what server hosts the Corresponding Source,
- you remain obligated to ensure that it is available for as long as needed to satisfy
- these requirements.
-
-
- -
- e) Convey the object code using peer-to-peer transmission, provided you inform other
- peers where the object code and Corresponding Source of the work are being offered
- to the general public at no charge under subsection 6d.
-
-
-
-
- A separable portion of the object code, whose source code is excluded from the
- Corresponding Source as a System Library, need not be included in conveying the object
- code work.
-
-
-
- A "User Product" is either (1) a "consumer product", which means
- any tangible personal property which is normally used for personal, family, or
- household purposes, or (2) anything designed or sold for incorporation into a
- dwelling. In determining whether a product is a consumer product, doubtful cases shall
- be resolved in favor of coverage. For a particular product received by a particular
- user, "normally used" refers to a typical or common use of that class of
- product, regardless of the status of the particular user or of the way in which the
- particular user actually uses, or expects or is expected to use, the product. A
- product is a consumer product regardless of whether the product has substantial
- commercial, industrial or non-consumer uses, unless such uses represent the only
- significant mode of use of the product.
-
-
-
- "Installation Information" for a User Product means any methods, procedures,
- authorization keys, or other information required to install and execute modified
- versions of a covered work in that User Product from a modified version of its
- Corresponding Source. The information must suffice to ensure that the continued
- functioning of the modified object code is in no case prevented or interfered with
- solely because modification has been made.
-
-
-
- If you convey an object code work under this section in, or with, or specifically for
- use in, a User Product, and the conveying occurs as part of a transaction in which the
- right of possession and use of the User Product is transferred to the recipient in
- perpetuity or for a fixed term (regardless of how the transaction is characterized),
- the Corresponding Source conveyed under this section must be accompanied by the
- Installation Information. But this requirement does not apply if neither you nor any
- third party retains the ability to install modified object code on the User Product
- (for example, the work has been installed in ROM).
-
-
-
- The requirement to provide Installation Information does not include a requirement to
- continue to provide support service, warranty, or updates for a work that has been
- modified or installed by the recipient, or for the User Product in which it has been
- modified or installed. Access to a network may be denied when the modification itself
- materially and adversely affects the operation of the network or violates the rules
- and protocols for communication across the network.
-
-
-
- Corresponding Source conveyed, and Installation Information provided, in accord with
- this section must be in a format that is publicly documented (and with an
- implementation available to the public in source code form), and must require no
- special password or key for unpacking, reading or copying.
-
-
- 7. Additional Terms.
-
-
- "Additional permissions" are terms that supplement the terms of this License
- by making exceptions from one or more of its conditions. Additional permissions that
- are applicable to the entire Program shall be treated as though they were included in
- this License, to the extent that they are valid under applicable law. If additional
- permissions apply only to part of the Program, that part may be used separately under
- those permissions, but the entire Program remains governed by this License without
- regard to the additional permissions.
-
-
-
- When you convey a copy of a covered work, you may at your option remove any additional
- permissions from that copy, or from any part of it. (Additional permissions may be
- written to require their own removal in certain cases when you modify the work.) You
- may place additional permissions on material, added by you to a covered work, for
- which you have or can give appropriate copyright permission.
-
-
-
- Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, for material you add to a covered
- work, you may (if authorized by the copyright holders of that material) supplement the
- terms of this License with terms:
-
-
-
- -
- a) Disclaiming warranty or limiting liability differently from the terms of sections
- 15 and 16 of this License; or
-
-
- -
- b) Requiring preservation of specified reasonable legal notices or author
- attributions in that material or in the Appropriate Legal Notices displayed by works
- containing it; or
-
-
- -
- c) Prohibiting misrepresentation of the origin of that material, or requiring that
- modified versions of such material be marked in reasonable ways as different from
- the original version; or
-
-
- -
- d) Limiting the use for publicity purposes of names of licensors or authors of the
- material; or
-
-
- -
- e) Declining to grant rights under trademark law for use of some trade names,
- trademarks, or service marks; or
-
-
- -
- f) Requiring indemnification of licensors and authors of that material by anyone who
- conveys the material (or modified versions of it) with contractual assumptions of
- liability to the recipient, for any liability that these contractual assumptions
- directly impose on those licensors and authors.
-
-
-
-
- All other non-permissive additional terms are considered "further
- restrictions" within the meaning of section 10. If the Program as you received
- it, or any part of it, contains a notice stating that it is governed by this License
- along with a term that is a further restriction, you may remove that term. If a
- license document contains a further restriction but permits relicensing or conveying
- under this License, you may add to a covered work material governed by the terms of
- that license document, provided that the further restriction does not survive such
- relicensing or conveying.
-
-
-
- If you add terms to a covered work in accord with this section, you must place, in the
- relevant source files, a statement of the additional terms that apply to those files,
- or a notice indicating where to find the applicable terms.
-
-
-
- Additional terms, permissive or non-permissive, may be stated in the form of a
- separately written license, or stated as exceptions; the above requirements apply
- either way.
-
-
- 8. Termination.
-
-
- You may not propagate or modify a covered work except as expressly provided under this
- License. Any attempt otherwise to propagate or modify it is void, and will
- automatically terminate your rights under this License (including any patent licenses
- granted under the third paragraph of section 11).
-
-
-
- However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your license from a
- particular copyright holder is reinstated (a) provisionally, unless and until the
- copyright holder explicitly and finally terminates your license, and (b) permanently,
- if the copyright holder fails to notify you of the violation by some reasonable means
- prior to 60 days after the cessation.
-
-
-
- Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is reinstated permanently if
- the copyright holder notifies you of the violation by some reasonable means, this is
- the first time you have received notice of violation of this License (for any work)
- from that copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days after your
- receipt of the notice.
-
-
-
- Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate the licenses of
- parties who have received copies or rights from you under this License. If your rights
- have been terminated and not permanently reinstated, you do not qualify to receive new
- licenses for the same material under section 10.
-
-
- 9. Acceptance Not Required for Having Copies.
-
-
- You are not required to accept this License in order to receive or run a copy of the
- Program. Ancillary propagation of a covered work occurring solely as a consequence of
- using peer-to-peer transmission to receive a copy likewise does not require
- acceptance. However, nothing other than this License grants you permission to
- propagate or modify any covered work. These actions infringe copyright if you do not
- accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or propagating a covered work, you
- indicate your acceptance of this License to do so.
-
-
- 10. Automatic Licensing of Downstream Recipients.
-
-
- Each time you convey a covered work, the recipient automatically receives a license
- from the original licensors, to run, modify and propagate that work, subject to this
- License. You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties with this
- License.
-
-
-
- An "entity transaction" is a transaction transferring control of an
- organization, or substantially all assets of one, or subdividing an organization, or
- merging organizations. If propagation of a covered work results from an entity
- transaction, each party to that transaction who receives a copy of the work also
- receives whatever licenses to the work the party's predecessor in interest had or
- could give under the previous paragraph, plus a right to possession of the
- Corresponding Source of the work from the predecessor in interest, if the predecessor
- has it or can get it with reasonable efforts.
-
-
-
- You may not impose any further restrictions on the exercise of the rights granted or
- affirmed under this License. For example, you may not impose a license fee, royalty,
- or other charge for exercise of rights granted under this License, and you may not
- initiate litigation (including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging
- that any patent claim is infringed by making, using, selling, offering for sale, or
- importing the Program or any portion of it.
-
-
- 11. Patents.
-
-
- A "contributor" is a copyright holder who authorizes use under this License
- of the Program or a work on which the Program is based. The work thus licensed is
- called the contributor's "contributor version".
-
-
-
- A contributor's "essential patent claims" are all patent claims owned
- or controlled by the contributor, whether already acquired or hereafter acquired, that
- would be infringed by some manner, permitted by this License, of making, using, or
- selling its contributor version, but do not include claims that would be infringed
- only as a consequence of further modification of the contributor version. For purposes
- of this definition, "control" includes the right to grant patent sublicenses
- in a manner consistent with the requirements of this License.
-
-
-
- Each contributor grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free patent license
- under the contributor's essential patent claims, to make, use, sell, offer for
- sale, import and otherwise run, modify and propagate the contents of its contributor
- version.
-
-
-
- In the following three paragraphs, a "patent license" is any express
- agreement or commitment, however denominated, not to enforce a patent (such as an
- express permission to practice a patent or covenant not to sue for patent
- infringement). To "grant" such a patent license to a party means to make
- such an agreement or commitment not to enforce a patent against the party.
-
-
-
- If you convey a covered work, knowingly relying on a patent license, and the
- Corresponding Source of the work is not available for anyone to copy, free of charge
- and under the terms of this License, through a publicly available network server or
- other readily accessible means, then you must either (1) cause the Corresponding
- Source to be so available, or (2) arrange to deprive yourself of the benefit of the
- patent license for this particular work, or (3) arrange, in a manner consistent with
- the requirements of this License, to extend the patent license to downstream
- recipients. "Knowingly relying" means you have actual knowledge that, but
- for the patent license, your conveying the covered work in a country, or your
- recipient's use of the covered work in a country, would infringe one or more
- identifiable patents in that country that you have reason to believe are valid.
-
-
-
- If, pursuant to or in connection with a single transaction or arrangement, you convey,
- or propagate by procuring conveyance of, a covered work, and grant a patent license to
- some of the parties receiving the covered work authorizing them to use, propagate,
- modify or convey a specific copy of the covered work, then the patent license you
- grant is automatically extended to all recipients of the covered work and works based
- on it.
-
-
-
- A patent license is "discriminatory" if it does not include within the scope
- of its coverage, prohibits the exercise of, or is conditioned on the non-exercise of
- one or more of the rights that are specifically granted under this License. You may
- not convey a covered work if you are a party to an arrangement with a third party that
- is in the business of distributing software, under which you make payment to the third
- party based on the extent of your activity of conveying the work, and under which the
- third party grants, to any of the parties who would receive the covered work from you,
- a discriminatory patent license (a) in connection with copies of the covered work
- conveyed by you (or copies made from those copies), or (b) primarily for and in
- connection with specific products or compilations that contain the covered work,
- unless you entered into that arrangement, or that patent license was granted, prior to
- 28 March 2007.
-
-
-
- Nothing in this License shall be construed as excluding or limiting any implied
- license or other defenses to infringement that may otherwise be available to you under
- applicable patent law.
-
-
- 12. No Surrender of Others' Freedom.
-
-
- If conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or otherwise) that
- contradict the conditions of this License, they do not excuse you from the conditions
- of this License. If you cannot convey a covered work so as to satisfy simultaneously
- your obligations under this License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a
- consequence you may not convey it at all. For example, if you agree to terms that
- obligate you to collect a royalty for further conveying from those to whom you convey
- the Program, the only way you could satisfy both those terms and this License would be
- to refrain entirely from conveying the Program.
-
-
-
- 13. Remote Network Interaction; Use with the GNU General Public License.
-
-
-
- Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, if you modify the Program, your
- modified version must prominently offer all users interacting with it remotely through
- a computer network (if your version supports such interaction) an opportunity to
- receive the Corresponding Source of your version by providing access to the
- Corresponding Source from a network server at no charge, through some standard or
- customary means of facilitating copying of software. This Corresponding Source shall
- include the Corresponding Source for any work covered by version 3 of the GNU General
- Public License that is incorporated pursuant to the following paragraph.
-
-
-
- Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, you have permission to link or
- combine any covered work with a work licensed under version 3 of the GNU General
- Public License into a single combined work, and to convey the resulting work. The
- terms of this License will continue to apply to the part which is the covered work,
- but the work with which it is combined will remain governed by version 3 of the GNU
- General Public License.
-
-
- 14. Revised Versions of this License.
-
-
- The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of the GNU Affero
- General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will be similar in spirit
- to the present version, but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.
-
-
-
- Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program specifies that a
- certain numbered version of the GNU Affero General Public License "or any later
- version" applies to it, you have the option of following the terms and conditions
- either of that numbered version or of any later version published by the Free Software
- Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of the GNU Affero General
- Public License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software
- Foundation.
-
-
-
- If the Program specifies that a proxy can decide which future versions of the GNU
- Affero General Public License can be used, that proxy's public statement of
- acceptance of a version permanently authorizes you to choose that version for the
- Program.
-
-
-
- Later license versions may give you additional or different permissions. However, no
- additional obligations are imposed on any author or copyright holder as a result of
- your choosing to follow a later version.
-
-
- 15. Disclaimer of Warranty.
-
-
- THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.
- EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES
- PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED
- OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY
- AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND
- PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME
- THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
-
-
- 16. Limitation of Liability.
-
-
- IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING WILL ANY
- COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MODIFIES AND/OR CONVEYS THE PROGRAM AS
- PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL,
- INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE
- PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE
- OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE
- WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE
- POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
