Scope + +The copyright holders offering software, source code, assets, or other material +under these terms ("we") grant the permissions below to every individual, team, +company, organization, and other entity ("you"). "Material" means what we offer +under these terms. + +2. Using the product and owning your output + +You may use the customer-facing software or product for any purpose, including +commercial purposes, without payment, acknowledgment, or a copy of these terms. +This includes installing, running, accessing, and self-hosting it, and compiling +it solely to run it. + +Whatever you create through ordinary use of the product is yours. We claim no +ownership of your output and impose no payment, acknowledgment, or licensing +conditions on it. You may use, sell, share, or license it however you choose. +Material intentionally included in ordinary output is also permitted in that +output on this basis. Merely copying or extracting the underlying codebase or +assetbase is reuse under section 3. + +3. Reusing code or assets + +Subject to section 4, you have worldwide, nonexclusive permission to copy, +modify, combine, publish, distribute, sublicense, sell, and otherwise reuse any +or all of the Material, for any purpose, in source or other forms. + +4. Finding common ground + +If you reuse the codebase or assetbase, you are responsible for satisfying one +of the following conditions when you begin that reuse: + +- If you cannot reasonably afford a monetary payment, give a simple + acknowledgment of the original software or repository in an appropriate + place, such as your README, source code, website, or documentation. A name + mention or a link is enough. No particular wording or placement is required. + +- If you can reasonably afford a monetary payment, sponsor the original + repository through its Sponsor button. You alone decide the minimum + reasonable amount you can afford, considering the circumstances of the entity + reusing the Material. Sponsorship may be one-time or monthly. If you pay any + positive amount, acknowledgment and links are optional. + +An entity may satisfy this condition through someone acting on its behalf. + +5. Final settlement + +Any positive amount successfully paid through that sponsorship route fully +and permanently satisfies the reuse condition for the entity making it or on +whose behalf it is made. Your chosen amount is accepted as sufficient, +regardless of your financial means. +We will not challenge its adequacy, request financial evidence, or demand a +larger amount. A record of the completed payment is sufficient proof; no +separate approval or agreement is needed. + +The first completed monthly payment is enough. Later payments are optional, +and you may cancel recurring sponsorship without losing your permissions. + +Likewise, an appropriate acknowledgment fully satisfies the condition for an +entity using the acknowledgment option. + +Once satisfied, the condition covers all reuse by that entity of Material +offered under these terms in the same original repository, including later +versions. No payment or acknowledgment is required again for additional uses, +copies, releases, or products. The permissions granted are then irrevocable +for that Material. + +6. Choosing another license + +After satisfying section 4, you may distribute or sublicense the Material, +modified or unmodified, under any license you choose. You do not have to include +these terms, keep this license, or require anyone else to follow it. These +terms require no retained copyright or license notices; the acknowledgment +option in section 4 is the only acknowledgment requirement. + +Recipients of Material you distribute under another license follow that +license and owe us no payment or acknowledgment under these terms for that +Material. Relicensing grants permissions; it does not transfer ownership of +the original Material. + +7. Existing rights and warranty + +These permissions cover only rights we can grant. Separately identified +third-party material remains subject to its own terms, and existing third-party +rights in inputs or output remain unaffected. Nothing here limits rights you +already have under applicable law. + +To the extent permitted by law, the Material is provided "as is," without any +warranty, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or +noninfringement. We are not liable for any claim, loss, or damages arising from +the Material or its use.
