Statement of Purpose
2+
3+
The laws of most jurisdictions throughout the world automatically confer
4+
exclusive Copyright and Related Rights (defined below) upon the creator and
5+
subsequent owner(s) (each and all, an "owner") of an original work of
6+
authorship and/or a database (each, a "Work").
7+
8+
Certain owners wish to permanently relinquish those rights to a Work for the
9+
purpose of contributing to a commons of creative, cultural and scientific works
10+
("Commons") that the public can reliably and without fear of later claims of
11+
infringement build upon, modify, incorporate in other works, reuse and
12+
redistribute as freely as possible in any form whatsoever and for any purposes,
13+
including without limitation commercial purposes. These owners may contribute to
14+
the Commons to promote the ideal of a free culture and the further production of
15+
creative, cultural and scientific works, or to gain reputation or greater
16+
distribution for their Work in part through the use and efforts of others.
17+
18+
For these and/or other purposes and motivations, and without any expectation of
19+
additional consideration or compensation, the person associating CC0 with a Work
20+
(the "Affirmer"), to the extent that he or she is an owner of Copyright and
21+
Related Rights in the Work, voluntarily elects to apply CC0 to the Work and
22+
publicly distribute the Work under its terms, with knowledge of his or her
23+
Copyright and Related Rights in the Work and the meaning and intended legal
24+
effect of CC0 on those rights.
25+
26+
1. Copyright and Related Rights. A Work made available under CC0 may be
27+
protected by copyright and related or neighboring rights ("Copyright and Related
28+
Rights"). Copyright and Related Rights include, but are not limited to, the
29+
following:
30+
31+
the right to reproduce, adapt, distribute, perform, display, communicate, and
32+
translate a Work; moral rights retained by the original author(s) and/or
33+
performer(s); publicity and privacy rights pertaining to a person's image or
34+
likeness depicted in a Work; rights protecting against unfair competition in
35+
regards to a Work, subject to the limitations in paragraph 4(a), below; rights
36+
protecting the extraction, dissemination, use and reuse of data in a Work;
37+
database rights (such as those arising under Directive 96/9/EC of the European
38+
Parliament and of the Council of 11 March 1996 on the legal protection of
39+
databases, and under any national implementation thereof, including any amended
40+
or successor version of such directive); and other similar, equivalent or
41+
corresponding rights throughout the world based on applicable law or treaty, and
42+
any national implementations thereof. 2. Waiver. To the greatest extent
43+
permitted by, but not in contravention of, applicable law, Affirmer hereby
44+
overtly, fully, permanently, irrevocably and unconditionally waives, abandons,
45+
and surrenders all of Affirmer's Copyright and Related Rights and associated
46+
claims and causes of action, whether now known or unknown (including existing as
47+
well as future claims and causes of action), in the Work (i) in all territories
48+
worldwide, (ii) for the maximum duration provided by applicable law or treaty
49+
(including future time extensions), (iii) in any current or future medium and
50+
for any number of copies, and (iv) for any purpose whatsoever, including without
51+
limitation commercial, advertising or promotional purposes (the "Waiver").
52+
Affirmer makes the Waiver for the benefit of each member of the public at large
53+
and to the detriment of Affirmer's heirs and successors, fully intending that
54+
such Waiver shall not be subject to revocation, rescission, cancellation,
55+
termination, or any other legal or equitable action to disrupt the quiet
56+
enjoyment of the Work by the public as contemplated by Affirmer's express
57+
Statement of Purpose.
58+
59+
3. Public License Fallback. Should any part of the Waiver for any reason be
60+
judged legally invalid or ineffective under applicable law, then the Waiver
61+
shall be preserved to the maximum extent permitted taking into account
62+
Affirmer's express Statement of Purpose. In addition, to the extent the Waiver
63+
is so judged Affirmer hereby grants to each affected person a royalty-free, non
64+
transferable, non sublicensable, non exclusive, irrevocable and unconditional
65+
license to exercise Affirmer's Copyright and Related Rights in the Work (i) in
66+
all territories worldwide, (ii) for the maximum duration provided by applicable
67+
law or treaty (including future time extensions), (iii) in any current or future
68+
medium and for any number of copies, and (iv) for any purpose whatsoever,
69+
including without limitation commercial, advertising or promotional purposes
70+
(the "License"). The License shall be deemed effective as of the date CC0 was
71+
applied by Affirmer to the Work. Should any part of the License for any reason
72+
be judged legally invalid or ineffective under applicable law, such partial
73+
invalidity or ineffectiveness shall not invalidate the remainder of the License,
74+
and in such case Affirmer hereby affirms that he or she will not (i) exercise
75+
any of his or her remaining Copyright and Related Rights in the Work or (ii)
76+
assert any associated claims and causes of action with respect to the Work, in
77+
either case contrary to Affirmer's express Statement of Purpose.
78+
79+
4. Limitations and Disclaimers.
80+
81+
No trademark or patent rights held by Affirmer are waived, abandoned,
82+
surrendered, licensed or otherwise affected by this document. Affirmer offers
83+
the Work as-is and makes no representations or warranties of any kind concerning
84+
the Work, express, implied, statutory or otherwise, including without limitation
85+
warranties of title, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non
86+
infringement, or the absence of latent or other defects, accuracy, or the
87+
present or absence of errors, whether or not discoverable, all to the greatest
88+
extent permissible under applicable law. Affirmer disclaims responsibility for
89+
clearing rights of other persons that may apply to the Work or any use thereof,
90+
including without limitation any person's Copyright and Related Rights in the
91+
Work. Further, Affirmer disclaims responsibility for obtaining any necessary
92+
consents, permissions or other rights required for any use of the Work. Affirmer
93+
understands and acknowledges that Creative Commons is not a party to this
94+
document and has no duty or obligation with respect to this CC0 or use of the
95+
Work.
