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

|

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 :

|
||||
exercise the Licensed Rights in the Licensed Material to:

||||
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.

||||

|
||||
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

||||

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

||||
|
||||

||||

||||

|
||||
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.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
License.

||||

|
||||

||||
voluntary or waivable statutory or compulsory licensing
|
||||
scheme. In all other cases the Licensor expressly reserves any
|
||||
right to collect such royalties.
|
||||
|
||||

||||
|
||||

|
||||
following conditions.

||||

||||
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

|
||||

||||
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
|
||||

|
||||
of Section 3(b); and
|
||||
|
||||
c. You must comply with the conditions in Section 3(a) if You Share all
|
||||

||||
|
||||
b. To the extent possible, in no event will the Licensor be liable to
|
||||
You on any legal theory (including, without limitation, negligence)

|
||||
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

|
||||

||||
liability.

||||
|
||||

||||
|
||||
a. This Public License applies for the term of the Copyright and

|
||||
terminate automatically.

||||
|
||||
b. Where Your right to use the Licensed Material has terminated under
|
||||
Section 6(a), it reinstates:

||||

||||

|
||||
|
||||
2. upon express reinstatement by the Licensor.
|
||||
|
||||

||||
this Public License.

||||
|
||||
d. For the avoidance of doubt, the Licensor may also offer the Licensed
|
||||

||||
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.

||||
any jurisdiction or authority.
