+Using Creative Commons Public Licenses

+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 :

+
+Section 2 - Scope.
+
+    a. License grant.
+
+        1. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Public License, the
+           Licensor hereby grants You a worldwide, royalty-free,
+           non-sublicensable, non-exclusive, irrevocable license to
+           exercise the Licensed Rights in the Licensed Material to:
+
+            A. reproduce and Share the Licensed Material, in whole or in part; and
+
+            B. produce, reproduce, and Share Adapted Material.
+
+        2. Exceptions and Limitations. For the avoidance of doubt, where
+           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.
+
+        3. Term. The term of this Public License is specified in Section 6(a).
+
+        4. Media and formats; technical modifications allowed. The Licensor
+           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
+               of the Licensed Material automatically receives an offer
+               from the Licensor to exercise the Licensed Rights under the
+               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
+           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. In all other cases the Licensor expressly reserves any
+           right to collect such royalties.
+
+Section 3 - License Conditions.
+
+Your exercise of the Licensed Rights is expressly made subject to the
+following conditions.
+
+    a. 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

+
+                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.
+
+    c. 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.
+
+    d. 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.
+
+    e. 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.
+

+       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.
