-
- *This Cryptographic Autonomy License (the "License") applies to any Work whose
- owner has marked it with any of the following notices, or a similar demonstration
- of intent: *
-
-
-
- SPDX-License-Identifier: CAL-1.0

-
- ______________________________________________________________________
-
-
-
- ## 1. Purpose
-
- This License gives You unlimited permission to use and modify the software
- to which it applies (the "Work"), either as-is or in modified form, for Your
- private purposes, while protecting the owners and contributors to the software
- from liability.
-
- This License also strives to protect the freedom and autonomy of third parties
- who receive the Work from you. If any non-affiliated third party receives
- any part, aspect, or element of the Work from You, this License requires that
- You provide that third party all the permissions and materials needed to independently
- use and modify the Work without that third party having a loss of data or
- capability due to your actions.
-
- The full permissions, conditions, and other terms are laid out below.
-
- ## 2. Receiving a License
-
- In order to receive this License, You must agree to its rules. The rules of
- this License are both obligations of Your agreement with the Licensor and
- conditions to your License. You must not do anything with the Work that triggers
- a rule You cannot or will not follow.
-
- ### 2.1. Application
-
- The terms of this License apply to the Work as you receive it from Licensor,
- as well as to any modifications, elaborations, or implementations created
- by You that contain any licensable portion of the Work (a "Modified Work").
- Unless specified, any reference to the Work also applies to a Modified Work.
-
- ### 2.2. Offer and Acceptance
-
- This License is automatically offered to every person and organization. You
- show that you accept this License and agree to its conditions by taking any
- action with the Work that, absent this License, would infringe any intellectual
- property right held by Licensor.
-
- ### 2.3. Compliance and Remedies
-
- Any failure to act according to the terms and conditions of this License places
- Your use of the Work outside the scope of the License and infringes the intellectual
- property rights of the Licensor. In the event of infringement, the terms and
- conditions of this License may be enforced by Licensor under the intellectual
- property laws of any jurisdiction to which You are subject. You also agree
- that either the Licensor or a Recipient (as an intended third-party beneficiary)
- may enforce the terms and conditions of this License against You via specific
- performance.
-
- ## 3. Permissions
-
-
-
- ### 3.1. Permissions Granted
-
- Conditioned on compliance with section 4, and subject to the limitations of
- section 3.2, Licensor grants You the world-wide, royalty-free, non-exclusive
- permission to:
-
- + a) Take any action with the Work that would infringe the non-patent intellectual
- property laws of any jurisdiction to which You are subject; and
-
- + b) claims that Licensor can license or becomes able to license, to the extent
- that those claims are embodied in the Work as distributed by Licensor.
-
- ### 3.2. Limitations on Permissions Granted
-
- The following limitations apply to the permissions granted in section 3.1:
-
-
-
- + a) Licensor does not grant any patent license for claims that are only infringed
- due to modification of the Work as provided by Licensor, or the combination
- of the Work as provided by Licensor, directly or indirectly, with any other
- component, including other software or hardware.
-
-
-
- + b) Licensor does not grant any license to the trademarks, service marks,
- or logos of Licensor, except to the extent necessary to comply with the attribution
- conditions in section 4.1 of this License.
-
- ## 4. Conditions
-
- If You exercise any permission granted by this License, such that the Work,
- or any part, aspect, or element of the Work, is distributed, communicated,
- made available, or made perceptible to a non-Affiliate third party (a "Recipient"),
- either via physical delivery or via a network connection to the Recipient,
- You must comply with the following conditions:
-
- ### 4.1. Provide Access to Source Code
-
- Subject to the exception in section 4.4, You must provide to each Recipient
- a copy of, or no-charge unrestricted network access to, the Source Code corresponding
- to the Work ("Access").
-
- The "Source Code" of the Work means the form of the Work preferred for making
- modifications, including any comments, configuration information, documentation,
- help materials, installation instructions, cryptographic seeds or keys, and
- any information reasonably necessary for the Recipient to independently compile
- and use the Source Code and to have full access to the functionality contained
- in the Work.
-
- #### 4.1.1. Providing Network Access to the Source Code
-
- Network Access to the Notices and Source Code may be provided by You or by
- a third party, such as a public software repository, and must persist during
- the same period in which You exercise any of the permissions granted to You
- under this License and for at least one year thereafter.
-
- #### 4.1.2. Source Code for a Modified Work
-
- Subject to the exception in section 4.5, You must provide to each Recipient
- of a Modified Work Access to Source Code corresponding to those portions of
- the Work remaining in the Modified Work as well as the modifications used
- by You to create the Modified Work. The Source Code corresponding to the modifications
- in the Modified Work must be provided to the Recipient either a) under this
- License, or b) under a Compatible Open Source License.
-
- #### 4.1.3. Coordinated Disclosure of Security Vulnerabilities
-
- You may delay providing the Source Code corresponding to a particular modification
- of the Work for up to ninety (90) days (the "Embargo Period") if:
-
-
-
- + a) the modification is intended to address a newly-identified vulnerability
- or a security flaw in the Work,
-
-
-
- + b) disclosure of the vulnerability or security flaw before the end of the
- Embargo Period would put the data, identity, or autonomy of one or more Recipients
- of the Work at significant risk,
-
-
-
- + c) You are participating in a coordinated disclosure of the vulnerability
- or security flaw with one or more additional Licensees, and
-
-
-
- + d) Access to the Source Code pertaining to the modification is provided
- to all Recipients at the end of the Embargo Period.
-
- ### 4.2. Maintain User Autonomy
-
- In addition to providing each Recipient the opportunity to have Access to
- the Source Code, You cannot use the permissions given under this License to
- interfere with a Recipient's ability to fully use an independent copy of the
- Work generated from the Source Code You provide with the Recipient's own User
- Data.
-
- "User Data" means any data that is an input to or an output from the Work,
- where the presence of the data is necessary for substantially identical use
- of the Work in an equivalent context chosen by the Recipient, and where the
- Recipient has an existing ownership interest, an existing right to possess,
- or where the data has been generated by, for, or has been assigned to the
- Recipient.
-
- #### 4.2.1. No Withholding User Data
-
- Throughout any period in which You exercise any of the permissions granted
- to You under this License, You must also provide to any Recipient to whom
- you provide services via the Work, a no-charge copy, provided in a commonly
- used electronic form, of the Recipient's User Data in your possession, to
- the extent that such User Data is available to You for use in conjunction
- with the Work.
-
- #### 4.2.2. No Technical Measures that Limit Access
-
- You may not, by means of the use cryptographic methods applied to anything
- provided to the Recipient, by possession or control of cryptographic keys,
- seeds, hashes, by any other technological protection measures, or by any other
- method, limit a Recipient's ability to access any functionality present in
- Recipient's independent copy of the Work, or to deny a Recipient full control
- of the Recipient's User Data.
-
- #### 4.2.3. No Legal or Contractual Measures that Limit Access
-
- You may not contractually restrict a Recipient's ability to independently
- exercise the permissions granted under this License. You waive any legal power
- to forbid circumvention of technical protection measures that include use
- of the Work, and You waive any claim that the capabilities of the Work were
- limited or modified as a means of enforcing the legal rights of third parties
- against Recipients.
-
- ### 4.3. Provide Notices and Attribution
-
- You must retain all licensing, authorship, or attribution notices contained
- in the Source Code (the "Notices"), and provide all such Notices to each Recipient,
- together with a statement acknowledging the use of the Work. Notices may be
- provided directly to a Recipient or via an easy-to-find hyperlink to an Internet
- location also providing Access to Source Code.
-
- ### 4.4. Scope of Conditions in this License
-
- You are required to uphold the conditions of this License only relative to
- those who are Recipients of the Work from You. Other than providing Recipients
- with the applicable Notices, Access to Source Code, and a copy of and full
- control of their User Data, nothing in this License requires You to provide
- processing services to or engage in network interactions with anyone.
-
- ### 4.5. Combined Work Exception
-
- As an exception to condition that You provide Recipients Access to Source
- Code, any Source Code files marked by the Licensor as having the "Combined
- Work Exception," or any object code exclusively resulting from Source Code
- files so marked, may be combined with other Software into a "Larger Work."
- So long as you comply with the requirements to provide Recipients the applicable
- Notices and Access to the Source Code provided to You by Licensor, and you
- provide Recipients access to their User Data and do not limit Recipient's
- ability to independently work with their User Data, any other Software in
- the Larger Work as well as the Larger Work as a whole may be licensed under
- the terms of your choice.
-
- ## 5. Term and Termination
-
- The term of this License begins when You receive the Work, and continues until
- terminated for any of the reasons described herein, or until all Licensor's
- intellectual property rights in the Software expire, whichever comes first
- ("Term"). This License cannot be revoked, only terminated for the reasons
- listed below.
-
- ### 5.1. Effect of Termination
-
- If this License is terminated for any reason, all permissions granted to You
- under Section 3 by any Licensor automatically terminate. You will immediately
- cease exercising any permissions granted in this License relative to the Work,
- including as part of any Modified Work.
-
- ### 5.2. Termination for Non-Compliance; Reinstatement
-
- This License terminates automatically if You fail to comply with any of the
- conditions in section 4. As a special exception to termination for non-compliance,
- Your permissions for the Work under this License will automatically be reinstated
- if You come into compliance with all the conditions in section 2 within sixty
- (60) days of being notified by Licensor or an intended third-party beneficiary
- of Your noncompliance. You are eligible for reinstatement of permissions for
- the Work one time only, and only for the sixty days immediately after becoming
- aware of noncompliance. Loss of permissions granted for the Work under this
- License due to either a) sustained noncompliance lasting more than sixty days
- or b) subsequent termination for noncompliance after reinstatement, is permanent,
- unless rights are specifically restored by Licensor in writing.
-
- ### 5.3. Termination Due to Litigation
-
- If You initiate litigation against Licensor, or any Recipient of the Work,
- either direct or indirect, asserting that the Work directly or indirectly
- infringes any patent, then all permissions granted to You by this License
- shall terminate. In the event of termination due to litigation, all permissions
- validly granted by You under this License, directly or indirectly, shall survive
- termination. Administrative review procedures, declaratory judgment actions,
- counterclaims in response to patent litigation, and enforcement actions against
- former Licensees terminated under this section do not cause termination due
- to litigation.
-
- ## 6. Disclaimer of Warranty and Limit on Liability
-
- As far as the law allows, the Work comes AS-IS, without any warranty of any
- kind, and no Licensor or contributor will be liable to anyone for any damages
- related to this software or this license, under any kind of legal claim, or
- for any type of damages, including indirect, special, incidental, or consequential
- damages of any type arising as a result of this License or the use of the
- Work including, without limitation, damages for loss of goodwill, work stoppage,
- computer failure or malfunction, loss of profits, revenue, or any and all
- other commercial damages or losses.
-
- ## 7. Other Provisions
-
-
-
- ### 7.1. Affiliates
-
- An "Affiliate" means any other entity that, directly or indirectly through
- one or more intermediaries, controls, is controlled by, or is under common
- control with, the Licensee. Employees of a Licensee and natural persons acting
- as contractors exclusively providing services to Licensee are also Affiliates.
-
- ### 7.2. Choice of Jurisdiction and Governing Law
-
- A Licensor may require that any action or suit by a Licensee relating to a
- Work provided by Licensor under this License may be brought only in the courts
- of a particular jurisdiction and under the laws of a particular jurisdiction
- (excluding its conflict-of-law provisions), if Licensor provides conspicuous
- notice of the particular jurisdiction to all Licensees.
-
- ### 7.3. No Sublicensing
-
- This License is not sublicensable. Each time You provide the Work or a Modified
- Work to a Recipient, the Recipient automatically receives a license under
- the terms described in this License. You may not impose any further reservations,
- conditions, or other provisions on any Recipients' exercise of the permissions
- granted herein.
-
- ### 7.4. Attorneys' Fees
-
- In any action to enforce the terms of this License, or seeking damages relating
- thereto, including by an intended third-party beneficiary, the prevailing
- party shall be entitled to recover its costs and expenses, including, without
- limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and costs incurred in connection with
- such action, including any appeal of such action. A "prevailing party" is
- the party that achieves, or avoids, compliance with this License, including
- through settlement. This section shall survive the termination of this License.
-
- ### 7.5. No Waiver
-
- Any failure by Licensor to enforce any provision of this License will not
- constitute a present or future waiver of such provision nor limit Licensor's
- ability to enforce such provision at a later time.
-
- ### 7.6. Severability
-
- If any provision of this License is held to be unenforceable, such provision
- shall be reformed only to the extent necessary to make it enforceable. Any
- invalid or unenforceable portion will be interpreted to the effect and intent
- of the original portion. If such a construction is not possible, the invalid
- or unenforceable portion will be severed from this License but the rest of
- this License will remain in full force and effect.
-
- ### 7.7. License for the Text of this License
-
- The text of this license is released under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike
- 4.0 International License, with the caveat that any modifications of this
- license may not use the name "Cryptographic Autonomy License" or any name
- confusingly similar thereto to describe any derived work of this License.
