 * Copyright and Similar Rights.
 *

 * access the material from a place and at a time individually chosen by
 * them.
 *

 * Section 2 � Scope.
 * 
 * 2.a. License grant.

 * the Licensed Material to:
 * 
 * 2.a.1.A. reproduce and Share the Licensed Material, in whole or in part;
 * and
 * 
 * 2.a.1.B. produce, reproduce, and Share Adapted Material.
 * 
 * 2.a.2. Exceptions and Limitations. For the avoidance of doubt, where

 * modifications necessary to exercise the Licensed Rights, including
 * technical modifications necessary to circumvent Effective Technological
 * Measures. For purposes of this Public License, simply making
 * modifications authorized by this Section 2(a)(4) never produces Adapted
 * Material.
 * 
 * 2.a.5. Downstream recipients.
 * 
 * 2.a.5.A. Offer from the Licensor � Licensed Material. Every recipient of

 * Technological Measures to, the Licensed Material if doing so restricts
 * exercise of the Licensed Rights by any recipient of the Licensed

 * 2.a.6. No endorsement. Nothing in this Public License constitutes or may
 * be construed as permission to assert or imply that You are, or that Your

 * or granted official status by, the Licensor or others designated to
 * receive attribution as provided in Section 3(a)(1)(A)(i).
 * 
 * 2.b. Other rights.
 * 
 * 2.b.1. Moral rights, such as the right of integrity, are not licensed
 * under this Public License, nor are publicity, privacy, and/or other
 * similar personality rights; however, to the extent possible, the
 * Licensor waives and/or agrees not to assert any such rights held by the
 * Licensor to the limited extent necessary to allow You to exercise the
 * Licensed Rights, but not otherwise.
 * 
 * 2.b.2. Patent and trademark rights are not licensed under this Public
 * License.
 * 
 * 2.b.3. To the extent possible, the Licensor waives any right to collect
 * royalties from You for the exercise of the Licensed Rights, whether
 * directly or through a collecting society under any voluntary or waivable
 * statutory or compulsory licensing scheme. In all other cases the
 * Licensor expressly reserves any right to collect such royalties.
 *

 * Your exercise of the Licensed Rights is expressly made subject to the
 * following conditions.

 * Public License.
 * 
 * 3.a.2. You may satisfy the conditions in Section 3(a)(1) in any
 * reasonable manner based on the medium, means, and context in which You
 * Share the Licensed Material. For example, it may be reasonable to
 * satisfy the conditions by providing a URI or hyperlink to a resource
 * that includes the required information.
 * 
 * 3.a.3. If requested by the Licensor, You must remove any of the
 * information required by Section 3(a)(1)(A) to the extent reasonably
 * practicable.
 * 
 * 3.a.4. If You Share Adapted Material You produce, the Adapter's License
 * You apply must not prevent recipients of the Adapted Material from
 * complying with this Public License.
 * 
 * Section 4 � Sui Generis Database Rights.
 * 
 * Where the Licensed Rights include Sui Generis Database Rights that apply
 * to Your use of the Licensed Material:
 * 
 * 4.a. for the avoidance of doubt, Section 2(a)(1) grants You the right to
 * extract, reuse, reproduce, and Share all or a substantial portion of the
 * contents of the database;
 * 
 * 4.b. if You include all or a substantial portion of the database
 * contents in a database in which You have Sui Generis Database Rights,
 * then the database in which You have Sui Generis Database Rights (but not
 * its individual contents) is Adapted Material; and
 * 
 * 4.c. You must comply with the conditions in Section 3(a) if You Share
 * all or a substantial portion of the contents of the database.
 * 
 * For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 4 supplements and does not
 * replace Your obligations under this Public License where the Licensed
 * Rights include other Copyright and Similar Rights.
 * 
 * Section 5 � Disclaimer of Warranties and Limitation of Liability.
 * 
 * 5.a. Unless otherwise separately undertaken by the Licensor, to the
 * extent possible, the Licensor offers the Licensed Material as-is and
 * as-available, and makes no representations or warranties of any kind
 * concerning the Licensed Material, whether express, implied, statutory,
 * or other. This includes, without limitation, warranties of title,
 * merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement,
 * absence of latent or other defects, accuracy, or the presence or absence
 * of errors, whether or not known or discoverable. Where disclaimers of
 * warranties are not allowed in full or in part, this disclaimer may not
 * apply to You.
 * 
 * 5.b. To the extent possible, in no event will the Licensor be liable to
 * You on any legal theory (including, without limitation, negligence) or
 * otherwise for any direct, special, indirect, incidental, consequential,
 * punitive, exemplary, or other losses, costs, expenses, or damages
 * arising out of this Public License or use of the Licensed Material, even
 * if the Licensor has been advised of the possibility of such losses,
 * costs, expenses, or damages. Where a limitation of liability is not
 * allowed in full or in part, this limitation may not apply to You.
 * 
 * 5.c. The disclaimer of warranties and limitation of liability provided
 * above shall be interpreted in a manner that, to the extent possible,
 * most closely approximates an absolute disclaimer and waiver of all
 * liability.
 * 
 * Section 6 � Term and Termination.
 * 
 * 6.a. This Public License applies for the term of the Copyright and
 * Similar Rights licensed here. However, if You fail to comply with this
 * Public License, then Your rights under this Public License terminate
 * automatically.
 * 
 * 6.b. Where Your right to use the Licensed Material has terminated under
 * Section 6(a), it reinstates:
 * 
 * 6.b.1. automatically as of the date the violation is cured, provided it
 * is cured within 30 days of Your discovery of the violation; or
 * 
 * 6.b.2. upon express reinstatement by the Licensor.
 * 
 * For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 6(b) does not affect any right
 * the Licensor may have to seek remedies for Your violations of this
 * Public License.
 * 
 * 6.c. For the avoidance of doubt, the Licensor may also offer the
 * Licensed Material under separate terms or conditions or stop
 * distributing the Licensed Material at any time; however, doing so will
 * not terminate this Public License.
 * 
 * 6.d. Sections 1, 5, 6, 7, and 8 survive termination of this Public
 * License.

 * 
 * Section 8 � Interpretation.
 * 
 * 8.a. For the avoidance of doubt, this Public License does not, and shall
 * not be interpreted to, reduce, limit, restrict, or impose conditions on
 * any use of the Licensed Material that could lawfully be made without
 * permission under this Public License.
 * 
 * 8.b. To the extent possible, if any provision of this Public License is
 * deemed unenforceable, it shall be automatically reformed to the minimum
 * extent necessary to make it enforceable. If the provision cannot be
 * reformed, it shall be severed from this Public License without affecting
 * the enforceability of the remaining terms and conditions.
 * 
 * 8.c. No term or condition of this Public License will be waived and no
 * failure to comply consented to unless expressly agreed to by the
 * Licensor.
 * 
 * d. Nothing in this Public License constitutes or may be interpreted as a
 * limitation upon, or waiver of, any privileges and immunities that apply
 * to the Licensor or You, including from the legal processes of any
 * jurisdiction or authority.
