The following terms and conditions apply to Your Contributions submitted to Drud Technology LLC ("Drud").
"You" or "Your" shall mean the copyright owner or legal entity authorized by the copyright owner that is making this Agreement with Drud. For legal entities, the entity making a Contribution and all other entities that control, are controlled by, or are under common control with that entity are considered to be a single contributor, where "control" means (i) the power, direct or indirect, to cause the direction or management of such entity, whether by contract or otherwise, or (ii) ownership of fifty percent (50%) or more of the outstanding shares, or (iii) beneficial ownership of such entity. "Contribution" shall mean any original work of authorship, including any modifications or additions to an existing work, that is submitted by You to Drud for inclusion in, or documentation of, any of the products owned or managed by Drud (the "Project"). For the purposes of this definition, "submitted" means any form of electronic, verbal, or written communication sent to Drud or its representatives, including but not limited to communication on electronic mailing lists, source code control systems, and issue tracking systems that are managed by, or on behalf of, Drud for the purpose of discussing and improving the Project, but excluding communication that is conspicuously marked or otherwise designated in writing by You as "Not a Contribution."
References to "employer" in these terms include Your employer or anyone else for whom You are acting in making Your Contribution, e.g. as a contractor, vendor, or agent. If Your Contribution is made in the course of Your work for an employer or Your employer has intellectual property rights in Your Contribution by contract or applicable law, You must secure permission from Your employer to make the Submission before signing this Agreement. In that case, the term "You" in this Agreement will refer to You and the employer collectively. If You change employers in the future and desire to Submit additional Contributions for the new employer, then You agree to sign new terms and secure permission from the new employer before contributing such Contributions.
Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, You hereby grant to Drud, its affiliates, assigns, and recipients of software distributed by Drud a perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable copyright license to reproduce, prepare derivative works of, publicly display, publicly perform, sublicense, and distribute Your Contributions and such derivative works. You agree that Drud does not have any duty to consult with, obtain the consent of, pay, or render an accounting to you for any use or distribution of Your Contribution.
Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, You hereby grant to Drud and to recipients of software distributed by Drud a perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable (except as stated in this section) patent license to make, have made, use, offer to sell, sell, import, and otherwise transfer the Project, where such license applies only to those patent claims licensable by You that are necessarily infringed by Your Contribution(s) alone or by combination of Your Contribution(s) with the Project to which such Contribution(s) was submitted. If any entity institutes patent litigation against You or any other entity (including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that your Contribution, or the Project to which you have contributed, constitutes direct or contributory patent infringement, then any patent licenses granted to that entity under this Agreement for that Contribution or Project shall terminate as of the date such litigation is filed.
You represent that You are legally entitled to grant the above license. You represent that each of Your Contributions is Your original creation. If applicable, you represent that you have received permission to make Contributions on behalf of that employer. You agree to notify Drud of if these representations become inaccurate. Except as expressly set forth in these terms and unless required by applicable law or agreed to in writing, You provide Your Contributions on an "AS IS" BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY WARRANTIES OF TITLE, NON- INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
Should You wish to submit work that is not Your original creation, You may submit it to Drud separately from any Contribution, identifying the complete details of its source and of any license or other restriction (including, but not limited to, related patents, trademarks, and license agreements) of which you are aware, retain all copyright and license information that was in the materials as You received them, and conspicuously marking the work as "Submission Contains Third Party Materials."
