| 67 | + succeeded, as well as other essentially equivalent rights anywhere in the |
| 68 | + world. |
| 69 | + |
| 70 | + k. You means the individual or entity exercising the Licensed Rights under |

| 73 | +Section 2 – Scope. |
| 74 | + |
| 75 | + a. License grant. |
| 76 | + 1. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Public License, the |
| 77 | + Licensor hereby grants You a worldwide, royalty-free, |
| 78 | + non-sublicensable, non-exclusive, irrevocable license to exercise the |
| 79 | + Licensed Rights in the Licensed Material to: |
| 80 | + A. reproduce and Share the Licensed Material, in whole or in part; |
| 81 | + and |
| 82 | + |
| 83 | + B. produce, reproduce, and Share Adapted Material. |
| 84 | + |
| 85 | + 2. Exceptions and Limitations. For the avoidance of doubt, where |
| 86 | + Exceptions and Limitations apply to Your use, this Public License |
| 87 | + does not apply, and You do not need to comply with its terms and |
| 88 | + conditions. |
| 89 | + |
| 90 | + 3. Term. The term of this Public License is specified in Section 6(a). |
| 91 | + |
| 92 | + 4. Media and formats; technical modifications allowed. The Licensor |
| 93 | + authorizes You to exercise the Licensed Rights in all media and |
| 94 | + formats whether now known or hereafter created, and to make technical |
| 95 | + modifications necessary to do so. The Licensor waives and/or agrees |
| 96 | + not to assert any right or authority to forbid You from making |
| 97 | + technical modifications necessary to exercise the Licensed Rights, |
| 98 | + including technical modifications necessary to circumvent Effective |
| 99 | + Technological Measures. For purposes of this Public License, simply |
| 100 | + making modifications authorized by this Section 2(a)(4) never |
| 101 | + produces Adapted Material. |
| 102 | + |
| 103 | + 5. Downstream recipients. |
| 104 | + A. Offer from the Licensor – Licensed Material. Every recipient of |
| 105 | + the Licensed Material automatically receives an offer from the |
| 106 | + Licensor to exercise the Licensed Rights under the terms and |
| 107 | + conditions of this Public License. |
| 108 | + |
| 109 | + B. No downstream restrictions. You may not offer or impose any |
| 110 | + additional or different terms or conditions on, or apply any |
| 111 | + Effective Technological Measures to, the Licensed Material if |
| 112 | + doing so restricts exercise of the Licensed Rights by any |
| 113 | + recipient of the Licensed Material. |
| 114 | + |
| 115 | + 6. No endorsement. Nothing in this Public License constitutes or may be |
| 116 | + construed as permission to assert or imply that You are, or that Your |
| 117 | + use of the Licensed Material is, connected with, or sponsored, |
| 118 | + endorsed, or granted official status by, the Licensor or others |
| 119 | + designated to receive attribution as provided in |
| 120 | + Section 3(a)(1)(A)(i). |
| 121 | + |
| 122 | + b. Other rights. |
| 123 | + 1. Moral rights, such as the right of integrity, are not licensed under |
| 124 | + this Public License, nor are publicity, privacy, and/or other similar |
| 125 | + personality rights; however, to the extent possible, the Licensor |
| 126 | + waives and/or agrees not to assert any such rights held by the |
| 127 | + Licensor to the limited extent necessary to allow You to exercise the |
| 128 | + Licensed Rights, but not otherwise. |
| 129 | + |
| 130 | + 2. Patent and trademark rights are not licensed under this Public |
| 131 | + License. |
| 132 | + |
| 133 | + 3. To the extent possible, the Licensor waives any right to collect |
| 134 | + royalties from You for the exercise of the Licensed Rights, whether |
| 135 | + directly or through a collecting society under any voluntary or |
| 136 | + waivable statutory or compulsory licensing scheme. In all other cases |
| 137 | + the Licensor expressly reserves any right to collect such royalties. |
| 138 | + |
| 139 | +Section 3 – License Conditions. |
| 140 | + |
| 141 | +Your exercise of the Licensed Rights is expressly made subject to the following |
| 142 | +conditions. |
| 143 | + |
| 144 | + a. Attribution. |
| 145 | + |
| 146 | + 1. If You Share the Licensed Material (including in modified form), You |
| 147 | + must: |
| 148 | + A. retain the following if it is supplied by the Licensor with the |
| 149 | + Licensed Material: |
| 150 | + i. identification of the creator(s) of the Licensed Material and |
| 151 | + any others designated to receive attribution, in any |
| 152 | + reasonable manner requested by the Licensor (including by |
| 153 | + pseudonym if designated); |
| 154 | + |
| 155 | + ii. a copyright notice; |
| 156 | + |
| 157 | + iii. a notice that refers to this Public License; |
| 158 | + |
| 159 | + iv. a notice that refers to the disclaimer of warranties; |
| 160 | + |
| 161 | + v. a URI or hyperlink to the Licensed Material to the extent |
| 162 | + reasonably practicable; |
| 163 | + |
| 164 | + B. indicate if You modified the Licensed Material and retain an |
| 165 | + indication of any previous modifications; and |
| 166 | + |
| 167 | + C. indicate the Licensed Material is licensed under this Public |
| 168 | + License, and include the text of, or the URI or hyperlink to, |
| 169 | + this Public License. |
| 170 | + |
| 171 | + 2. You may satisfy the conditions in Section 3(a)(1) in any reasonable |
| 172 | + manner based on the medium, means, and context in which You Share the |
| 173 | + Licensed Material. For example, it may be reasonable to satisfy the |
| 174 | + conditions by providing a URI or hyperlink to a resource that |
| 175 | + includes the required information. |
| 176 | + |
| 177 | + 3. If requested by the Licensor, You must remove any of the information |
| 178 | + required by Section 3(a)(1)(A) to the extent reasonably practicable. |
| 179 | + |
| 180 | + 4. If You Share Adapted Material You produce, the Adapter's License You |
| 181 | + apply must not prevent recipients of the Adapted Material from |
| 182 | + complying with this Public License. |
| 183 | + |
| 184 | +Section 4 – Sui Generis Database Rights. |
| 185 | + |
| 186 | +Where the Licensed Rights include Sui Generis Database Rights that apply to Your |
| 187 | +use of the Licensed Material: |
| 188 | + |
| 189 | + a. for the avoidance of doubt, Section 2(a)(1) grants You the right to |
| 190 | + extract, reuse, reproduce, and Share all or a substantial portion of the |
| 191 | + contents of the database; |
| 192 | + |
| 193 | + b. if You include all or a substantial portion of the database contents in a |
| 194 | + database in which You have Sui Generis Database Rights, then the database |
| 195 | + in which You have Sui Generis Database Rights (but not its individual |
| 196 | + contents) is Adapted Material; and |
| 197 | + |
| 198 | + c. You must comply with the conditions in Section 3(a) if You Share all or a |
| 199 | + substantial portion of the contents of the database. |
| 200 | + |
| 201 | +For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 4 supplements and does not replace Your |
| 202 | +obligations under this Public License where the Licensed Rights include other |
| 203 | +Copyright and Similar Rights. |
| 204 | + |
| 205 | +Section 5 – Disclaimer of Warranties and Limitation of Liability. |
| 206 | + |
| 207 | + a. Unless otherwise separately undertaken by the Licensor, to the extent |
| 208 | + possible, the Licensor offers the Licensed Material as-is and |
| 209 | + as-available, and makes no representations or warranties of any kind |
| 210 | + concerning the Licensed Material, whether express, implied, statutory, or |
| 211 | + other. This includes, without limitation, warranties of title, |
| 212 | + merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, |
| 213 | + absence of latent or other defects, accuracy, or the presence or absence |
| 214 | + of errors, whether or not known or discoverable. Where disclaimers of |
| 215 | + warranties are not allowed in full or in part, this disclaimer may not |
| 216 | + apply to You. |
| 217 | + |
| 218 | + b. To the extent possible, in no event will the Licensor be liable to You on |
| 219 | + any legal theory (including, without limitation, negligence) or otherwise |
| 220 | + for any direct, special, indirect, incidental, consequential, punitive, |
| 221 | + exemplary, or other losses, costs, expenses, or damages arising out of |
| 222 | + this Public License or use of the Licensed Material, even if the Licensor |
| 223 | + has been advised of the possibility of such losses, costs, expenses, or |
| 224 | + damages. Where a limitation of liability is not allowed in full or in |
| 225 | + part, this limitation may not apply to You. |
| 226 | + |
| 227 | + c. The disclaimer of warranties and limitation of liability provided above |
| 228 | + shall be interpreted in a manner that, to the extent possible, most |
| 229 | + closely approximates an absolute disclaimer and waiver of all liability. |
| 230 | + |
| 231 | +Section 6 – Term and Termination. |
| 232 | + |
| 233 | + a. This Public License applies for the term of the Copyright and Similar |
| 234 | + Rights licensed here. However, if You fail to comply with this Public |
| 235 | + License, then Your rights under this Public License terminate |
| 236 | + automatically. |
| 237 | + |
| 238 | + b. Where Your right to use the Licensed Material has terminated under |
| 239 | + Section 6(a), it reinstates: |
| 240 | + 1. automatically as of the date the violation is cured, provided it is |
| 241 | + cured within 30 days of Your discovery of the violation; or |
| 242 | + |
| 243 | + 2. upon express reinstatement by the Licensor. |
| 244 | + |
| 245 | + c. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 6(b) does not affect any right |
| 246 | + the Licensor may have to seek remedies for Your violations of this Public |
| 247 | + License. |
| 248 | + |
| 249 | + d. For the avoidance of doubt, the Licensor may also offer the Licensed |
| 250 | + Material under separate terms or conditions or stop distributing the |
| 251 | + Licensed Material at any time; however, doing so will not terminate this |
| 252 | + Public License. |
| 253 | + |
| 254 | + e. Sections 1, 5, 6, 7, and 8 survive termination of this Public License. |
| 255 | + |
| 256 | +Section 7 – Other Terms and Conditions. |
| 257 | + |
| 258 | + a. The Licensor shall not be bound by any additional or different terms or |
| 259 | + conditions communicated by You unless expressly agreed. |
| 260 | + |
| 261 | + b. Any arrangements, understandings, or agreements regarding the Licensed |
| 262 | + Material not stated herein are separate from and independent of the terms |
| 263 | + and conditions of this Public License. |
| 264 | + |
| 265 | +Section 8 – Interpretation. |
| 266 | + |
| 267 | + a. For the avoidance of doubt, this Public License does not, and shall not |
| 268 | + be interpreted to, reduce, limit, restrict, or impose conditions on any |
| 269 | + use of the Licensed Material that could lawfully be made without |
| 270 | + permission under this Public License. |
| 271 | + |
| 272 | + b. To the extent possible, if any provision of this Public License is deemed |
| 273 | + unenforceable, it shall be automatically reformed to the minimum extent |
| 274 | + necessary to make it enforceable. If the provision cannot be reformed, it |
| 275 | + shall be severed from this Public License without affecting the |
| 276 | + enforceability of the remaining terms and conditions. |
| 277 | + |
| 278 | + c. No term or condition of this Public License will be waived and no failure |
| 279 | + to comply consented to unless expressly agreed to by the Licensor. |
| 280 | + |
| 281 | + d. Nothing in this Public License constitutes or may be interpreted as a |
| 282 | + limitation upon, or waiver of, any privileges and immunities that apply |
| 283 | + to the Licensor or You, including from the legal processes of any |
| 284 | + jurisdiction or authority. |
