### Software Grant and Corporate Contributor License Agreement | |
In order to clarify the intellectual property license granted with | |
Contributions from any person or entity, deps.cloud must have a Contributor | |
License Agreement (CLA) on file that has been signed by each Contributor, | |
indicating agreement to the license terms below. This license is for your | |
protection as a Contributor as well as the protection of deps.cloud and its | |
users; it does not change your rights to use your own Contributions for any | |
other purpose. | |
This version of the Agreement allows an entity (the "Corporation") to submit | |
Contributions to deps.cloud, to authorize Contributions submitted by its | |
designated employees to deps.cloud, and to grant copyright and patent licenses | |
thereto. | |
You accept and agree to the following terms and conditions for Your present and | |
future Contributions submitted to deps.cloud. Except for the license granted | |
herein to deps.cloud and recipients of software distributed by deps.cloud, You | |
reserve all right, title, and interest in and to Your Contributions. | |
1. Definitions. | |
"You" (or "Your") shall mean the copyright owner or legal entity authorized | |
by the copyright owner that is making this Agreement with deps.cloud. 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. For the purposes of this | |
definition, "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 the code, documentation or any original work of | |
authorship, including any modifications or additions to an existing work, | |
that is intentionally submitted by You to deps.cloud for inclusion in, or | |
documentation of, any of the products owned or managed by deps.cloud (the | |
"Work"). For the purposes of this definition, "submitted" means any form of | |
electronic, verbal, or written communication sent to deps.cloud 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, deps.cloud for the purpose of discussing | |
and improving the Work, but excluding communication that is conspicuously | |
marked or otherwise designated in writing by You as "Not a Contribution." | |
2. Grant of Copyright License. Subject to the terms and conditions of this | |
Agreement, You hereby grant to deps.cloud and to recipients of software | |
distributed by deps.cloud 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. | |
3. Grant of Patent License. Subject to the terms and conditions of this | |
Agreement, You hereby grant to deps.cloud and to recipients of software | |
distributed by deps.cloud 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 Work, 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 Work 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 Work 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 Work shall terminate as of the date such litigation is filed. | |
4. You represent that You are legally entitled to grant the above license. You | |
represent further that each employee of the Corporation designated by You is | |
authorized to submit Contributions on behalf of the Corporation. | |
5. You represent that each of Your Contributions is Your original creation | |
(see section 7 for submissions on behalf of others). | |
6. You are not expected to provide support for Your Contributions, except to | |
the extent You desire to provide support. You may provide support for free, | |
for a fee, or not at all. 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 or conditions of TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, | |
MERCHANTABILITY, or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. | |
7. Should You wish to submit work that is not Your original creation, You may | |
submit it to deps.cloud 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 personally aware, and conspicuously marking the | |
work as "Submitted on behalf of a third-party: [named here]". | |
8. It is your responsibility to notify deps.cloud when any change is required | |
to the list of designated employees authorized to submit Contributions on | |
behalf of the Corporation, or to the Corporation's Point of Contact with | |
deps.cloud. |
