Creative Commons Legal Code
CC0 1.0 Universal
CREATIVE COMMONS CORPORATION IS NOT A LAW FIRM AND DOES NOT
PROVIDE LEGAL SERVICES. DISTRIBUTION OF THIS DOCUMENT DOES
NOT CREATE AN ATTORNEY-CLIENT RELATIONSHIP. CREATIVE COMMONS
PROVIDES THIS INFORMATION ON AN "AS-IS" BASIS. CREATIVE
COMMONS MAKES NO WARRANTIES REGARDING THE USE OF THIS
DOCUMENT OR THE INFORMATION OR WORKS PROVIDED HEREUNDER, AND
DISCLAIMS LIABILITY FOR DAMAGES RESULTING FROM THE USE OF
THIS DOCUMENT OR THE INFORMATION OR WORKS PROVIDED
HEREUNDER.
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.
