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.

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.

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. + +b. ShareAlike. + In addition to the conditions in Section 3(a), if You Share Adapted + Material You produce, the following conditions also apply. + 1. The Adapter’s License You apply must be a Creative Commons license with + the same License Elements, this version or later, or a BY-SA Compatible + License. + 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 Measures to, + Adapted Material that restrict exercise of the rights granted under the + Adapter's License You apply. + +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, including for purposes of Section 3(b); 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.
