CC0 1.0 Universal |

|
Statement of Purpose |
|
|
|
The laws of most jurisdictions throughout the world automatically confer |
|
exclusive Copyright and Related Rights (defined below) upon the creator and |
|
subsequent owner(s) (each and all, an "owner") of an original work of |
|
authorship and/or a database (each, a "Work"). |
|
|
|
Certain owners wish to permanently relinquish those rights to a Work for the |
|
purpose of contributing to a commons of creative, cultural and scientific |
|
works ("Commons") that the public can reliably and without fear of later |
|
claims of infringement build upon, modify, incorporate in other works, reuse |
|
and redistribute as freely as possible in any form whatsoever and for any |
|
purposes, including without limitation commercial purposes. These owners may |
|
contribute to the Commons to promote the ideal of a free culture and the |
|
further production of creative, cultural and scientific works, or to gain |
|
reputation or greater distribution for their Work in part through the use and |
|
efforts of others. |
|
|
|
For these and/or other purposes and motivations, and without any expectation |
|
of additional consideration or compensation, the person associating CC0 with a |
|
Work (the "Affirmer"), to the extent that he or she is an owner of Copyright |
|
and Related Rights in the Work, voluntarily elects to apply CC0 to the Work |
|
and publicly distribute the Work under its terms, with knowledge of his or her |
|
Copyright and Related Rights in the Work and the meaning and intended legal |
|
effect of CC0 on those rights. |
|
|
|
1. Copyright and Related Rights. A Work made available under CC0 may be |
|
protected by copyright and related or neighboring rights ("Copyright and |
|
Related Rights"). Copyright and Related Rights include, but are not limited |
|
to, the following: |
|
|
|
i. the right to reproduce, adapt, distribute, perform, display, communicate, |
|
and translate a Work; |
|
|
|
ii. moral rights retained by the original author(s) and/or performer(s); |
|
|
|
iii. publicity and privacy rights pertaining to a person's image or likeness |
|
depicted in a Work; |
|
|
|
iv. rights protecting against unfair competition in regards to a Work, |
|
subject to the limitations in paragraph 4(a), below; |
|
|
|
v. rights protecting the extraction, dissemination, use and reuse of data in |
|
a Work; |
|
|
|
vi. database rights (such as those arising under Directive 96/9/EC of the |
|
European Parliament and of the Council of 11 March 1996 on the legal |
|
protection of databases, and under any national implementation thereof, |
|
including any amended or successor version of such directive); and |
|
|
|
vii. other similar, equivalent or corresponding rights throughout the world |
|
based on applicable law or treaty, and any national implementations thereof. |
|
|
|
2. Waiver. To the greatest extent permitted by, but not in contravention of, |
|
applicable law, Affirmer hereby overtly, fully, permanently, irrevocably and |
|
unconditionally waives, abandons, and surrenders all of Affirmer's Copyright |
|
and Related Rights and associated claims and causes of action, whether now |
|
known or unknown (including existing as well as future claims and causes of |
|
action), in the Work (i) in all territories worldwide, (ii) for the maximum |
|
duration provided by applicable law or treaty (including future time |
|
extensions), (iii) in any current or future medium and for any number of |
|
copies, and (iv) for any purpose whatsoever, including without limitation |
|
commercial, advertising or promotional purposes (the "Waiver"). Affirmer makes |
|
the Waiver for the benefit of each member of the public at large and to the |
|
detriment of Affirmer's heirs and successors, fully intending that such Waiver |
|
shall not be subject to revocation, rescission, cancellation, termination, or |
|
any other legal or equitable action to disrupt the quiet enjoyment of the Work |
|
by the public as contemplated by Affirmer's express Statement of Purpose. |
|
|
|
3. Public License Fallback. Should any part of the Waiver for any reason be |
|
judged legally invalid or ineffective under applicable law, then the Waiver |
|
shall be preserved to the maximum extent permitted taking into account |
|
Affirmer's express Statement of Purpose. In addition, to the extent the Waiver |
|
is so judged Affirmer hereby grants to each affected person a royalty-free, |
|
non transferable, non sublicensable, non exclusive, irrevocable and |
|
unconditional license to exercise Affirmer's Copyright and Related Rights in |
|
the Work (i) in all territories worldwide, (ii) for the maximum duration |
|
provided by applicable law or treaty (including future time extensions), (iii) |
|
in any current or future medium and for any number of copies, and (iv) for any |
|
purpose whatsoever, including without limitation commercial, advertising or |
|
promotional purposes (the "License"). The License shall be deemed effective as |
|
of the date CC0 was applied by Affirmer to the Work. Should any part of the |
|
License for any reason be judged legally invalid or ineffective under |
|
applicable law, such partial invalidity or ineffectiveness shall not |
|
invalidate the remainder of the License, and in such case Affirmer hereby |
|
affirms that he or she will not (i) exercise any of his or her remaining |
|
Copyright and Related Rights in the Work or (ii) assert any associated claims |
|
and causes of action with respect to the Work, in either case contrary to |
|
Affirmer's express Statement of Purpose. |
|
|
|
4. Limitations and Disclaimers. |
|
|
|
a. No trademark or patent rights held by Affirmer are waived, abandoned, |
|
surrendered, licensed or otherwise affected by this document. |
|
|
|
b. Affirmer offers the Work as-is and makes no representations or warranties |
|
of any kind concerning the Work, express, implied, statutory or otherwise, |
|
including without limitation warranties of title, merchantability, fitness |
|
for a particular purpose, non infringement, or the absence of latent or |
|
other defects, accuracy, or the present or absence of errors, whether or not |
|
discoverable, all to the greatest extent permissible under applicable law. |
|
|
|
c. Affirmer disclaims responsibility for clearing rights of other persons |
|
that may apply to the Work or any use thereof, including without limitation |
|
any person's Copyright and Related Rights in the Work. Further, Affirmer |
|
disclaims responsibility for obtaining any necessary consents, permissions |
|
or other rights required for any use of the Work. |
|
|
|
d. Affirmer understands and acknowledges that Creative Commons is not a |
|
party to this document and has no duty or obligation with respect to this |
|
CC0 or use of the Work. |
