5+
## Acceptance
6+
7+
In order to get any license under these terms, you must agree
8+
to them as both strict obligations and conditions to all
9+
your licenses.
10+
11+
## Copyright License
12+
13+
The licensor grants you a copyright license for the
14+
software to do everything you might do with the software
15+
that would otherwise infringe the licensor's copyright
16+
in it for any permitted purpose. However, you may
17+
only distribute the software according to [Distribution
18+
License](#distribution-license) and make changes or new works
19+
based on the software according to [Changes and New Works
20+
License](#changes-and-new-works-license).
21+
22+
## Distribution License
23+
24+
The licensor grants you an additional copyright license
25+
to distribute copies of the software. Your license
26+
to distribute covers distributing the software with
27+
changes and new works permitted by [Changes and New Works
28+
License](#changes-and-new-works-license).
29+
30+
## Notices
31+
32+
You must ensure that anyone who gets a copy of any part of
33+
the software from you also gets a copy of these terms or the
34+
URL for them above, as well as copies of any plain-text lines
35+
beginning with `Required Notice:` that the licensor provided
36+
with the software. For example:
37+
38+
> Required Notice: Copyright Yoyodyne, Inc. (http://example.com)
39+
40+
## Changes and New Works License
41+
42+
The licensor grants you an additional copyright license to
43+
make changes and new works based on the software for any
44+
permitted purpose.
45+
46+
## Patent License
47+
48+
The licensor grants you a patent license for the software that
49+
covers patent claims the licensor can license, or becomes able
50+
to license, that you would infringe by using the software.
51+
52+
## Noncompete
53+
54+
Any purpose is a permitted purpose, except for providing any
55+
product that competes with the software or any product the
56+
licensor or any of its affiliates provides using the software.
57+
58+
## Competition
59+
60+
Goods and services compete even when they provide functionality
61+
through different kinds of interfaces or for different technical
62+
platforms. Applications can compete with services, libraries
63+
with plugins, frameworks with development tools, and so on,
64+
even if they're written in different programming languages
65+
or for different computer architectures. Goods and services
66+
compete even when provided free of charge. If you market a
67+
product as a practical substitute for the software or another
68+
product, it definitely competes.
69+
70+
## New Products
71+
72+
If you are using the software to provide a product that does
73+
not compete, but the licensor or any of its affiliates brings
74+
your product into competition by providing a new version of
75+
the software or another product using the software, you may
76+
continue using versions of the software available under these
77+
terms beforehand to provide your competing product, but not
78+
any later versions.
79+
80+
## Discontinued Products
81+
82+
You may begin using the software to compete with a product
83+
or service that the licensor or any of its affiliates has
84+
stopped providing, unless the licensor includes a plain-text
85+
line beginning with `Licensor Line of Business:` with the
86+
software that mentions that line of business. For example:
87+
88+
> Licensor Line of Business: YoyodyneCMS Content Management
89+
System (http://example.com/cms)
90+
91+
## Sales of Business
92+
93+
If the licensor or any of its affiliates sells a line of
94+
business developing the software or using the software
95+
to provide a product, the buyer can also enforce
96+
[Noncompete](#noncompete) for that product.
97+
98+
## Fair Use
99+
100+
You may have "fair use" rights for the software under the
101+
law. These terms do not limit them.
102+
103+
## No Other Rights
104+
105+
These terms do not allow you to sublicense or transfer any of
106+
your licenses to anyone else, or prevent the licensor from
107+
granting licenses to anyone else. These terms do not imply
108+
any other licenses.
109+
110+
## Patent Defense
111+
112+
If you make any written claim that the software infringes or
113+
contributes to infringement of any patent, your patent license
114+
for the software granted under these terms ends immediately. If
115+
your company makes such a claim, your patent license ends
116+
immediately for work on behalf of your company.
117+
118+
## Violations
119+
120+
The first time you are notified in writing that you have
121+
violated any of these terms, or done anything with the software
122+
not covered by your licenses, your licenses can nonetheless
123+
continue if you come into full compliance with these terms,
124+
and take practical steps to correct past violations, within
125+
32 days of receiving notice. Otherwise, all your licenses
126+
end immediately.
127+
128+
## No Liability
129+
130+
***As far as the law allows, the software comes as is, without
131+
any warranty or condition, and the licensor will not be liable
132+
to you for any damages arising out of these terms or the use
133+
or nature of the software, under any kind of legal claim.***
134+
135+
