- # The Cryptographic Autonomy License, v. 1.0
-
- *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
- Licensed under the Cryptographic Autonomy License version 1.0
-
- *or*
-
- SPDX-License-Identifier: CAL-1.0-Combined-Work-Exception
- Licensed under the Cryptographic Autonomy License version 1.0, with
- Combined Work Exception
-
- ______________________________________________________________________
-
- ## 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.
-
- A “Compatible Open Source License” means a license accepted by the Open Source
- Initiative that allows object code created using both Source Code provided under
- this License and Source Code provided under the other open source license to be
- distributed together as a single work.
-
- #### 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
