CognitiveWeb Open Source License
Version 1.1
This CognitiveWeb™ Open Source License (the "License") applies to
CognitiveWeb software products as well as any updates or
maintenance releases of that software ("CognitiveWeb Products")
that are distributed by CognitiveWeb. ("Licensor"). Any
CognitiveWeb Product licensed pursuant to this License is a
Licensed Product. Licensed Product, in its entirety, is
protected by U.S. copyright law. This License identifies the
terms under which you may use, copy, distribute or modify
Licensed Product.
Preamble
This Preamble is intended to describe, in plain
English, the nature and scope of this License.
However, this Preamble is not a part of this license.
The legal effect of this License is dependent only
upon the terms of the License and not this Preamble.
This License complies with the Open Source Definition
and has been approved by Open Source Initiative.
Software distributed under this License may be marked
as "OSI Certified Open Source Software."
This License provides that:
1. You may use, sell or give away the Licensed
Product, alone or as a component of an aggregate
software distribution containing programs from
several different sources. No royalty or other
fee is required.
2. Both Source Code and executable versions of the
Licensed Product, including Modifications made by
previous Contributors, are available for your
use. (The terms "Licensed Product,"
"Modifications," "Contributors" and "Source Code"
are defined in the License.)
3. You are allowed to make Modifications to the
Licensed Product, and you can create Derivative
Works from it. (The term "Derivative Works" is
defined in the License.)
4. By accepting the Licensed Product under the
provisions of this License, you agree that any
Modifications you make to the Licensed Product
and then distribute are governed by the
provisions of this License. In particular, you
must make the Source Code of your Modifications
available to others.
5. You may use the Licensed Product for any
purpose, but the Licensor is not providing you
any warranty whatsoever, nor is the Licensor
accepting any liability in the event that the
Licensed Product doesn't work properly or causes
you any injury or damages.
6. If you sublicense the Licensed Product or
Derivative Works, you may charge fees for
warranty or support, or for accepting indemnity
or liability obligations to your customers. You
cannot charge for the Source Code.
7. If you assert any patent claims against the
Licensor relating to the Licensed Product, or if
you breach any terms of the License, your rights
to the Licensed Product under this License
automatically terminate.
You may use this License to distribute your own
Derivative Works, in which case the provisions of this
License will apply to your Derivative Works just as
they do to the original Licensed Product.
Alternatively, you may distribute your Derivative
Works under any other OSI-approved Open Source
license, or under a proprietary license of your
choice. If you use any license other than this
License, however, you must continue to fulfill the
requirements of this License (including the provisions
relating to publishing the Source Code) for those
portions of your Derivative Works that consist of the
Licensed Product, including the files containing
Modifications.
New versions of this License may be published from
time to time. You may choose to continue to use the
license terms in this version of the License or those
from the new version. However, only the Licensor has
the right to change the License terms as they apply to
the Licensed Product.
This License relies on precise definitions for certain
terms. Those terms are defined when they are first
used, and the definitions are repeated for your
convenience in a Glossary at the end of the License.
License Terms
1. Grant of License From Licensor. Licensor hereby grants you a
world-wide, royalty-free, non-exclusive license, subject to third
party intellectual property claims, to do the following:
a. Use, reproduce, modify, display, perform, sublicense and
distribute any Modifications created by such Contributor or
portions thereof, in both Source Code or as an executable
program, either on an unmodified basis or as part of
Derivative Works.
b. Under claims of patents now or hereafter owned or
controlled by Contributor, to make, use, sell, offer for
sale, have made, and/or otherwise dispose of Modifications
or portions thereof, but solely to the extent that any such
claim is necessary to enable you to make, use, sell, offer
for sale, have made, and/or otherwise dispose of
Modifications or portions thereof or Derivative Works
thereof.
2. Grant of License to Modifications From Contributor. "Modifications"
means any additions to or deletions from the substance or structure of
(i) a file containing Licensed Product, or (ii) any new file that
contains any part of Licensed Product. Hereinafter in this License, the
term "Licensed Product" shall include all previous Modifications that
you receive from any Contributor. By application of the provisions in
Section 4(a) below, each person or entity who created or contributed to
the creation of, and distributed, a Modification (a "Contributor")
hereby grants you a world-wide, royalty-free, non-exclusive license,
subject to third party intellectual property claims, to do the
following:
a. Use, reproduce, modify, display, perform, sublicense and
distribute any Modifications created by such Contributor or
portions thereof, in both Source Code or as an executable
program, either on an unmodified basis or as part of Derivative
Works.
b. Under claims of patents now or hereafter owned or controlled by
Contributor, to make, use, sell, offer for sale, have made,
and/or otherwise dispose of Modifications or portions thereof,
but solely to the extent that any such claim is necessary to
enable you to make, use, sell, offer for sale, have made, and/or
otherwise dispose of Modifications or portions thereof or
Derivative Works thereof.
3. Exclusions From License Grant. Nothing in this License shall
be deemed to grant any rights to trademarks, copyrights, patents,
trade secrets or any other intellectual property of Licensor or
any Contributor except as expressly stated herein. No patent
license is granted separate from the Licensed Product, for code
that you delete from the Licensed Product, or for combinations of
the Licensed Product with other software or hardware. No right
is granted to the trademarks of Licensor or any Contributor even
if such marks are included in the Licensed Product. Nothing in
this License shall be interpreted to prohibit Licensor from
licensing under different terms from this License any code that
Licensor otherwise would have a right to license.
4. Your Obligations Regarding Distribution.
a. Application of This License to Your Modifications. As an
express condition for your use of the Licensed Product, you
hereby agree that any Modifications that you create or to
which you contribute, and which you distribute, are
governed by the terms of this License including, without
limitation, Section 2. Any Modifications that you create
or to which you contribute may be distributed only under
the terms of this License or a future version of this
License released under Section 7. You must include a copy
of this License with every copy of the Modifications you
distribute. You agree not to offer or impose any terms on
any Source Code or executable version of the Licensed
Product or Modifications that alter or restrict the
applicable version of this License or the recipients'
rights hereunder. However, you may include an additional
document offering the additional rights described in
Section 4(e).
b. Availability of Source Code. You must make available,
under the terms of this License, the Source Code of the
Licensed Product and any Modifications that you distribute,
either on the same media as you distribute any executable
or other form of the Licensed Product, or via a mechanism
generally accepted in the software development community
for the electronic transfer of data (an "Electronic
Distribution Mechanism"). The Source Code for any version
of Licensed Product or Modifications that you distribute
must remain available for at least twelve (12) months after
the date it initially became available, or at least six (6)
months after a subsequent version of said Licensed Product
or Modifications has been made available. You are
responsible for ensuring that the Source Code version
remains available even if the Electronic Distribution
Mechanism is maintained by a third party.
c. Description of Modifications. You must cause any
Modifications that you create or to which you contribute,
and which you distribute, to contain a file documenting the
additions, changes or deletions you made to create or
contribute to those Modifications, and the dates of any
such additions, changes or deletions. You must include a
prominent statement that the Modifications are derived,
directly or indirectly, from the Licensed Product and
include the names of the Licensor and any Contributor to
the Licensed Product in (i) the Source Code and (ii) in any
notice displayed by a version of the Licensed Product you
distribute or in related documentation in which you
describe the origin or ownership of the Licensed Product.
You may not modify or delete any preexisting copyright
notices in the Licensed Product.
d. Intellectual Property Matters.
i. Third Party Claims. If you have knowledge that a
license to a third party's intellectual property right
is required to exercise the rights granted by this
License, you must include a text file with the Source
Code distribution titled "LEGAL" that describes the
claim and the party making the claim in sufficient
detail that a recipient will know whom to contact. If
you obtain such knowledge after you make any
Modifications available as described in Section 4(b),
you shall promptly modify the LEGAL file in all copies
you make available thereafter and shall take other
steps (such as notifying appropriate mailing lists or
newsgroups) reasonably calculated to inform those who
received the Licensed Product from you that new
knowledge has been obtained.
ii. Contributor APIs. If your Modifications include
an application programming interface ("API") and you
have knowledge of patent licenses that are reasonably
necessary to implement that API, you must also include
this information in the LEGAL file.
iii. Representations. You represent that, except as
disclosed pursuant to 4(d)(i) above, you believe that
any Modifications you distribute are your original
creations and that you have sufficient rights to grant
the rights conveyed by this License.
e. Required Notices. You must duplicate this License in any
documentation you provide along with the Source Code of any
Modifications you create or to which you contribute, and
which you distribute, wherever you describe recipients'
rights relating to Licensed Product. You must duplicate
the notice contained in Exhibit A (the "Notice") in each
file of the Source Code of any copy you distribute of the
Licensed Product. If you created a Modification, you may
add your name as a Contributor to the Notice. If it is not
possible to put the Notice in a particular Source Code file
due to its structure, then you must include such Notice in
a location (such as a relevant directory file) where a user
would be likely to look for such a notice. You may choose
to offer, and charge a fee for, warranty, support,
indemnity or liability obligations to one or more
recipients of Licensed Product. However, you may do so only
on your own behalf, and not on behalf of the Licensor or
any Contributor. You must make it clear that any such
warranty, support, indemnity or liability obligation is
offered by you alone, and you hereby agree to indemnify the
Licensor and every Contributor for any liability incurred
by the Licensor or such Contributor as a result of
warranty, support, indemnity or liability terms you offer.
f. Distribution of Executable Versions. You may distribute
Licensed Product as an executable program under a license
of your choice that may contain terms different from this
License provided (i) you have satisfied the requirements of
Sections 4(a) through 4(e) for that distribution, (ii) you
include a conspicuous notice in the executable version,
related documentation and collateral materials stating that
the Source Code version of the Licensed Product is
available under the terms of this License, including a
description of how and where you have fulfilled the
obligations of Section 4(b), (iii) you retain all existing
copyright notices in the Licensed Product, and (iv) you
make it clear that any terms that differ from this License
are offered by you alone, not by Licensor or any
Contributor. You hereby agree to indemnify the Licensor
and every Contributor for any liability incurred by
Licensor or such Contributor as a result of any terms you
offer.
g. Distribution of Derivative Works. You may create
Derivative Works (e.g., combinations of some or all of the
Licensed Product with other code) and distribute the
Derivative Works as products under any other license you
select, with the proviso that the requirements of this
License are fulfilled for those portions of the Derivative
Works that consist of the Licensed Product or any
Modifications thereto.
5. Inability to Comply Due to Statute or Regulation. If it is
impossible for you to comply with any of the terms of this
License with respect to some or all of the Licensed Product due
to statute, judicial order, or regulation, then you must (i)
comply with the terms of this License to the maximum extent
possible, (ii) cite the statute or regulation that prohibits you
from adhering to the License, and (iii) describe the limitations
and the code they affect. Such description must be included in
the LEGAL file described in Section 4(d), and must be included
with all distributions of the Source Code. Except to the extent
prohibited by statute or regulation, such description must be
sufficiently detailed for a recipient of ordinary skill at
computer programming to be able to understand it.
6. Application of This License. This License applies to code to
which Licensor or Contributor has attached the Notice in Exhibit
A, which is incorporated herein by this reference.
7. Versions of This License.
a. New Versions. Licensor may publish from time to time
revised and/or new versions of the License.
b. Effect of New Versions. Once Licensed Product has been
published under a particular version of the License, you
may always continue to use it under the terms of that
version. You may also choose to use such Licensed Product
under the terms of any subsequent version of the License
published by Licensor. No one other than Licensor has the
right to modify the terms applicable to Licensed Product
created under this License.
c. Derivative Works of this License. If you create or use a
modified version of this License, which you may do only in
order to apply it to software that is not already a
Licensed Product under this License, you must rename your
license so that it is not confusingly similar to this
License, and must make it clear that your license contains
terms that differ from this License. In so naming your
license, you may not use any trademark of Licensor or any
Contributor.
8. Disclaimer of Warranty. LICENSED PRODUCT IS PROVIDED UNDER
THIS LICENSE ON AN AS IS BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND,
EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION,
WARRANTIES THAT THE LICENSED PRODUCT IS FREE OF DEFECTS,
MERCHANTABLE, FIT FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR NON-INFRINGING. THE
ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE LICENSED
PRODUCT IS WITH YOU. SHOULD LICENSED PRODUCT PROVE DEFECTIVE IN
ANY RESPECT, YOU (AND NOT THE LICENSOR OR ANY OTHER CONTRIBUTOR)
ASSUME THE COST OF ANY NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
THIS DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY CONSTITUTES AN ESSENTIAL PART OF THIS
LICENSE. NO USE OF LICENSED PRODUCT IS AUTHORIZED HEREUNDER
EXCEPT UNDER THIS DISCLAIMER.
9. Termination.
a. Automatic Termination Upon Breach. This license and the
rights granted hereunder will terminate automatically if
you fail to comply with the terms herein and fail to cure
such breach within thirty (30) days of becoming aware of
the breach. All sublicenses to the Licensed Product that
are properly granted shall survive any termination of this
license. Provisions that, by their nature, must remain in
effect beyond the termination of this License, shall
survive.
b. Termination Upon Assertion of Patent Infringement. If you
initiate litigation by asserting a patent infringement
claim (excluding declaratory judgment actions) against
Licensor or a Contributor (Licensor or Contributor against
whom you file such an action is referred to herein as
Respondent) alleging that Licensed Product directly or
indirectly infringes any patent, then any and all rights
granted by such Respondent to you under Sections 1 or 2 of
this License shall terminate prospectively upon sixty (60)
days notice from Respondent (the "Notice Period") unless
within that Notice Period you either agree in writing (i)
to pay Respondent a mutually agreeable reasonably royalty
for your past or future use of Licensed Product made by
such Respondent, or (ii) withdraw your litigation claim
with respect to Licensed Product against such Respondent.
If within said Notice Period a reasonable royalty and
payment arrangement are not mutually agreed upon in writing
by the parties or the litigation claim is not withdrawn,
the rights granted by Licensor to you under Sections 1 and
2 automatically terminate at the expiration of said Notice
Period.
c. Reasonable Value of This License. If you assert a patent
infringement claim against Respondent alleging that
Licensed Product directly or indirectly infringes any
patent where such claim is resolved (such as by license or
settlement) prior to the initiation of patent infringement
litigation, then the reasonable value of the licenses
granted by said Respondent under Sections 1 and 2 shall be
taken into account in determining the amount or value of
any payment or license.
d. No Retroactive Effect of Termination. In the event of
termination under Sections 9(a) or 9(b) above, all end user
license agreements (excluding licenses to distributors and
resellers) that have been validly granted by you or any
distributor hereunder prior to termination shall survive
termination.
10. Limitation of Liability. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES AND UNDER NO
LEGAL THEORY, WHETHER TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), CONTRACT, OR
OTHERWISE, SHALL THE LICENSOR, ANY CONTRIBUTOR, OR ANY
DISTRIBUTOR OF LICENSED PRODUCT, OR ANY SUPPLIER OF ANY OF SUCH
PARTIES, BE LIABLE TO ANY PERSON FOR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL,
INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY CHARACTER INCLUDING,
WITHOUT LIMITATION, DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF GOODWILL, WORK STOPPAGE,
COMPUTER FAILURE OR MALFUNCTION, OR ANY AND ALL OTHER COMMERCIAL
DAMAGES OR LOSSES, EVEN IF SUCH PARTY SHALL HAVE BEEN INFORMED OF
THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. THIS LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
SHALL NOT APPLY TO LIABILITY FOR DEATH OR PERSONAL INJURY
RESULTING FROM SUCH PARTYS NEGLIGENCE TO THE EXTENT APPLICABLE
LAW PROHIBITS SUCH LIMITATION. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW
THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL
DAMAGES, SO THIS EXCLUSION AND LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
11. Responsibility for Claims. As between Licensor and
Contributors, each party is responsible for claims and damages
arising, directly or indirectly, out of its utilization of rights
under this License. You agree to work with Licensor and
Contributors to distribute such responsibility on an equitable
basis. Nothing herein is intended or shall be deemed to
constitute any admission of liability.
12. U.S. Government End Users. The Licensed Product is a
commercial item, as that term is defined in 48 C.F.R. 2.101 (Oct.
1995), consisting of commercial computer software and commercial
computer software documentation, as such terms are used in 48
C.F.R. 12.212 (Sept. 1995). Consistent with 48 C.F.R. 12.212 and
48 C.F.R. 227.7202-1 through 227.7202-4 (June 1995), all U.S.
Government End Users acquire Licensed Product with only those
rights set forth herein.
13. Miscellaneous. This License represents the complete
agreement concerning the subject matter hereof. 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 action or suit relating to this License may be brought only
in the courts of a jurisdiction wherein the Licensor resides or
in which Licensor conducts its primary business, and under the
laws of that jurisdiction excluding its conflict-of-law
provisions. The losing party is responsible for costs including,
without limitation, court costs and reasonable attorneys fees and
expenses. You and Licensor expressly waive any rights to a jury
trial in any litigation concerning Licensed Product or this
License. Any law or regulation that provides that the language
of a contract shall be construed against the drafter shall not
apply to this License. The application of the United Nations
Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is
expressly excluded. Any use of the Original Work outside the
scope of this License or after its termination shall be subject
to the requirements and penalties of the U.S. Copyright Act, 17
U.S.C. 101 et seq., the equivalent laws of other countries, and
international treaty. This section shall survive the termination
of this License.
14. Definition of You in This License. You throughout this
License, whether in upper or lower case, means an individual or a
legal entity exercising rights under, and complying with all of
the terms of, this License or a future version of this License
issued under Section 7. For legal entities, you includes any
entity that controls, is controlled by, or is under common
control with you. For 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.
