1. Scope
|
||||
|
||||
The copyright holders offering software, source code, assets, or other content
|
||||
under these terms ("we") grant the permissions below to every individual, team,
|
||||
company, organization, and other entity ("you"). "Work" means the software,
|
||||
source code, assets, and other content 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.
|
||||
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 Work, 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 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 Work. 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 the Work
|
||||
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 Work.
|
||||
|
||||
6. Choosing another license
|
||||
|
||||
After satisfying section 4, you may distribute or sublicense the Work,
|
||||
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 the Work you distribute under another license follow that
|
||||
license and owe us no payment or acknowledgment under these terms for that
|
||||
Work. Relicensing grants permissions; it does not transfer ownership of
|
||||
the original Work.
|
||||
|
||||
7. Warranty
|
||||
|
||||
To the extent permitted by law, the Work 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 Work or its use.
