Copyright and Related Rights. A Work made available under CC0 may be +protected by copyright and related or neighboring rights ("Copyright and +Related Rights"). Copyright and Related Rights include, but are not +limited to, the following: + + i. the right to reproduce, adapt, distribute, perform, display, + communicate, and translate a Work; + ii. moral rights retained by the original author(s) and/or performer(s); +iii. publicity and privacy rights pertaining to a person's image or + likeness depicted in a Work; + iv. rights protecting against unfair competition in regards to a Work, + subject to the limitations in paragraph 4(a), below; + v. rights protecting the extraction, dissemination, use and reuse of data + in a Work; + vi. database rights (such as those arising under Directive 96/9/EC of the + European Parliament and of the Council of 11 March 1996 on the legal + protection of databases, and under any national implementation + thereof, including any amended or successor version of such + directive); and +vii. other similar, equivalent or corresponding rights throughout the + world based on applicable law or treaty, and any national + implementations thereof. + +2. Waiver. To the greatest extent permitted by, but not in contravention +of, applicable law, Affirmer hereby overtly, fully, permanently, +irrevocably and unconditionally waives, abandons, and surrenders all of +Affirmer's Copyright and Related Rights and associated claims and causes +of action, whether now known or unknown (including existing as well as +future claims and causes of action), in the Work (i) in all territories +worldwide, (ii) for the maximum duration provided by applicable law or +treaty (including future time extensions), (iii) in any current or future +medium and for any number of copies, and (iv) for any purpose whatsoever, +including without limitation commercial, advertising or promotional +purposes (the "Waiver"). Affirmer makes the Waiver for the benefit of each +member of the public at large and to the detriment of Affirmer's heirs and +successors, fully intending that such Waiver shall not be subject to +revocation, rescission, cancellation, termination, or any other legal or +equitable action to disrupt the quiet enjoyment of the Work by the public +as contemplated by Affirmer's express Statement of Purpose. + +3. Public License Fallback. Should any part of the Waiver for any reason +be judged legally invalid or ineffective under applicable law, then the +Waiver shall be preserved to the maximum extent permitted taking into +account Affirmer's express Statement of Purpose. In addition, to the +extent the Waiver is so judged Affirmer hereby grants to each affected +person a royalty-free, non transferable, non sublicensable, non exclusive, +irrevocable and unconditional license to exercise Affirmer's Copyright and +Related Rights in the Work (i) in all territories worldwide, (ii) for the +maximum duration provided by applicable law or treaty (including future +time extensions), (iii) in any current or future medium and for any number +of copies, and (iv) for any purpose whatsoever, including without +limitation commercial, advertising or promotional purposes (the +"License"). The License shall be deemed effective as of the date CC0 was +applied by Affirmer to the Work. Should any part of the License for any +reason be judged legally invalid or ineffective under applicable law, such +partial invalidity or ineffectiveness shall not invalidate the remainder +of the License, and in such case Affirmer hereby affirms that he or she +will not (i) exercise any of his or her remaining Copyright and Related +Rights in the Work or (ii) assert any associated claims and causes of +action with respect to the Work, in either case contrary to Affirmer's +express Statement of Purpose. + +4. Limitations and Disclaimers. + + a. No trademark or patent rights held by Affirmer are waived, abandoned, + surrendered, licensed or otherwise affected by this document. + b. Affirmer offers the Work as-is and makes no representations or + warranties of any kind concerning the Work, express, implied, + statutory or otherwise, including without limitation warranties of + title, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non + infringement, or the absence of latent or other defects, accuracy, or + the present or absence of errors, whether or not discoverable, all to + the greatest extent permissible under applicable law. + c. Affirmer disclaims responsibility for clearing rights of other persons + that may apply to the Work or any use thereof, including without + limitation any person's Copyright and Related Rights in the Work. + Further, Affirmer disclaims responsibility for obtaining any necessary + consents, permissions or other rights required for any use of the + Work. + d.
