|
|
you might do with the software that would otherwise infringe the licensor's

|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
The licensor grants you an additional copyright license to distribute copies
|
|||
|
|
of the software. Your license to distribute covers distributing the software

|||

## Patent License
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
The licensor grants you a patent license for the software that covers patent
|
|||
|
|
claims the licensor can license, or becomes able to license, that you would
|

## Fair Use
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
You may have "fair use" rights for the software under the law. These terms

do not limit them.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
## Small Business
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Use of the software for the benefit of your company is use for a permitted
|
|||
|
|
purpose if your company has fewer than 100 total individuals working as employees
|
|||
|
|
and independent contractors, and less than 1,000,000 USD (2019) total revenue
|
|||
|
|
in the prior tax year. Adjust this revenue threshold for inflation according
|
|||
|
|
to the United States Bureau of Labor Statistics' consumer price index for
|
|||
|
|
all urban consumers, U.S. city average, for all items, not seasonally adjusted,
|
|||
|
|
with 1982–1984=100 reference base.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
## No Other Rights
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
These terms do not allow you to sublicense or transfer any of your licenses
|
|||
|
|
to anyone else, or prevent the licensor from granting licenses to anyone else.
|
|||
|
|
These terms do not imply any other licenses.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
## Patent Defense
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
If you make any written claim that the software infringes or contributes to
|
|||
|
|
infringement of any patent, your patent license for the software granted under
|
|||
|
|
these terms ends immediately. If your company makes such a claim, your patent
|
|||
|
|
license ends immediately for work on behalf of your company.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
## Violations
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
The first time you are notified in writing that you have violated any of these
|
|||
|
|
terms, or done anything with the software not covered by your licenses, your
|
|||
|
|
licenses can nonetheless continue if you come into full compliance with these
|
|||
|
|
terms, and take practical steps to correct past violations, within 32 days
|
|||
|
|
of receiving notice. Otherwise, all your licenses end immediately.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
## No Liability
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
***As far as the law allows, the software comes as is, without any warranty
|
|||
|
|
or condition, and the licensor will not be liable to you for any damages arising
|
|||
|
|
out of these terms or the use or nature of the software, under any kind of
|
|||
|
|
legal claim.***
