European Union Public Licence v. 1.2
|
|
|
|
EUPL © the European Union 2007, 2016
|
|
|
|
This European Union Public Licence (the 'EUPL') applies to the Work (as defined
|
|
below) which is provided under the terms of this Licence. Any use of the Work,
|
|
other than as authorised under this Licence is prohibited (to the extent such
|
|
use is covered by a right of the copyright holder of the Work).
|
|
|
|
The Work is provided under the terms of this Licence when the Licensor (as
|
|
defined below) has placed the following notice immediately following the copyright
|
|
notice for the Work:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Licensed under the EUPL
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
or has expressed by any other means his willingness to license under the EUPL.
|
|
|
|
1. Definitions
|
|
|
|
In this Licence, the following terms have the following meaning:
|
|
|
|
— 'The Licence': this Licence.
|
|
|
|
— 'The Original Work': the work or software distributed or communicated by
|
|
the Licensor under this Licence, available as Source Code and also as Executable
|
|
Code as the case may be.
|
|
|
|
— 'Derivative Works': the works or software that could be created by the Licensee,
|
|
based upon the Original Work or modifications thereof. This Licence does not
|
|
define the extent of modification or dependence on the Original Work required
|
|
in order to classify a work as a Derivative Work; this extent is determined
|
|
by copyright law applicable in the country mentioned in Article 15.
|
|
|
|
— 'The Work': the Original Work or its Derivative Works.
|
|
|
|
— 'The Source Code': the human-readable form of the Work which is the most
|
|
convenient for people to study and modify.
|
|
|
|
— 'The Executable Code': any code which has generally been compiled and which
|
|
is meant to be interpreted by a computer as a program.
|
|
|
|
— 'The Licensor': the natural or legal person that distributes or communicates
|
|
the Work under the Licence.
|
|
|
|
— 'Contributor(s)': any natural or legal person who modifies the Work under
|
|
the Licence, or otherwise contributes to the creation of a Derivative Work.
|
|
|
|
— 'The Licensee' or 'You': any natural or legal person who makes any usage
|
|
of the Work under the terms of the Licence.
|
|
|
|
— 'Distribution' or 'Communication': any act of selling, giving, lending,
|
|
renting, distributing, communicating, transmitting, or otherwise making available,
|
|
online or offline, copies of the Work or providing access to its essential
|
|
functionalities at the disposal of any other natural or legal person.
|
|
|
|
2. Scope of the rights granted by the Licence
|
|
|
|
The Licensor hereby grants You a worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive, sublicensable
|
|
licence to do the following, for the duration of copyright vested in the Original
|
|
Work:
|
|
|
|
— use the Work in any circumstance and for all usage,
|
|
|
|
— reproduce the Work,
|
|
|
|
— modify the Work, and make Derivative Works based upon the Work,
|
|
|
|
— communicate to the public, including the right to make available or display
|
|
the Work or copies thereof to the public and perform publicly, as the case
|
|
may be, the Work,
|
|
|
|
— distribute the Work or copies thereof,
|
|
|
|
— lend and rent the Work or copies thereof,
|
|
|
|
— sublicense rights in the Work or copies thereof.
|
|
|
|
Those rights can be exercised on any media, supports and formats, whether
|
|
now known or later invented, as far as the applicable law permits so.
|
|
|
|
In the countries where moral rights apply, the Licensor waives his right to
|
|
exercise his moral right to the extent allowed by law in order to make effective
|
|
the licence of the economic rights here above listed.
|
|
|
|
The Licensor grants to the Licensee royalty-free, non-exclusive usage rights
|
|
to any patents held by the Licensor, to the extent necessary to make use of
|
|
the rights granted on the Work under this Licence.
|
|
|
|
3. Communication of the Source Code
|
|
|
|
The Licensor may provide the Work either in its Source Code form, or as Executable
|
|
Code. If the Work is provided as Executable Code, the Licensor provides in
|
|
addition a machine-readable copy of the Source Code of the Work along with
|
|
each copy of the Work that the Licensor distributes or indicates, in a notice
|
|
following the copyright notice attached to the Work, a repository where the
|
|
Source Code is easily and freely accessible for as long as the Licensor continues
|
|
to distribute or communicate the Work.
|
|
|
|
4. Limitations on copyright
|
|
|
|
Nothing in this Licence is intended to deprive the Licensee of the benefits
|
|
from any exception or limitation to the exclusive rights of the rights owners
|
|
in the Work, of the exhaustion of those rights or of other applicable limitations
|
|
thereto.
|
|
|
|
5. Obligations of the Licensee
|
|
|
|
The grant of the rights mentioned above is subject to some restrictions and
|
|
obligations imposed on the Licensee. Those obligations are the following:
|
|
|
|
Attribution right: The Licensee shall keep intact all copyright, patent or
|
|
trademarks notices and all notices that refer to the Licence and to the disclaimer
|
|
of warranties. The Licensee must include a copy of such notices and a copy
|
|
of the Licence with every copy of the Work he/she distributes or communicates.
|
|
The Licensee must cause any Derivative Work to carry prominent notices stating
|
|
that the Work has been modified and the date of modification.
|
|
|
|
Copyleft clause: If the Licensee distributes or communicates copies of the
|
|
Original Works or Derivative Works, this Distribution or Communication will
|
|
be done under the terms of this Licence or of a later version of this Licence
|
|
unless the Original Work is expressly distributed only under this version
|
|
of the Licence — for example by communicating 'EUPL v. 1.2 only'. The Licensee
|
|
(becoming Licensor) cannot offer or impose any additional terms or conditions
|
|
on the Work or Derivative Work that alter or restrict the terms of the Licence.
|
|
|
|
Compatibility clause: If the Licensee Distributes or Communicates Derivative
|
|
Works or copies thereof based upon both the Work and another work licensed
|
|
under a Compatible Licence, this Distribution or Communication can be done
|
|
under the terms of this Compatible Licence. For the sake of this clause, 'Compatible
|
|
Licence' refers to the licences listed in the appendix attached to this Licence.
|
|
Should the Licensee's obligations under the Compatible Licence conflict with
|
|
his/her obligations under this Licence, the obligations of the Compatible
|
|
Licence shall prevail.
|
|
|
|
Provision of Source Code: When distributing or communicating copies of the
|
|
Work, the Licensee will provide a machine-readable copy of the Source Code
|
|
or indicate a repository where this Source will be easily and freely available
|
|
for as long as the Licensee continues to distribute or communicate the Work.
|
|
|
|
Legal Protection: This Licence does not grant permission to use the trade
|
|
names, trademarks, service marks, or names of the Licensor, except as required
|
|
for reasonable and customary use in describing the origin of the Work and
|
|
reproducing the content of the copyright notice.
|
|
|
|
6. Chain of Authorship
|
|
|
|
The original Licensor warrants that the copyright in the Original Work granted
|
|
hereunder is owned by him/her or licensed to him/her and that he/she has the
|
|
power and authority to grant the Licence.
|
|
|
|
Each Contributor warrants that the copyright in the modifications he/she brings
|
|
to the Work are owned by him/her or licensed to him/her and that he/she has
|
|
the power and authority to grant the Licence.
|
|
|
|
Each time You accept the Licence, the original Licensor and subsequent Contributors
|
|
grant You a licence to their contributions to the Work, under the terms of
|
|
this Licence.
|
|
|
|
7. Disclaimer of Warranty
|
|
|
|
The Work is a work in progress, which is continuously improved by numerous
|
|
Contributors. It is not a finished work and may therefore contain defects
|
|
or 'bugs' inherent to this type of development.
|
|
|
|
For the above reason, the Work is provided under the Licence on an 'as is'
|
|
basis and without warranties of any kind concerning the Work, including without
|
|
limitation merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, absence of defects
|
|
or errors, accuracy, non-infringement of intellectual property rights other
|
|
than copyright as stated in Article 6 of this Licence.
|
|
|
|
This disclaimer of warranty is an essential part of the Licence and a condition
|
|
for the grant of any rights to the Work.
|
|
|
|
8. Disclaimer of Liability
|
|
|
|
Except in the cases of wilful misconduct or damages directly caused to natural
|
|
persons, the Licensor will in no event be liable for any direct or indirect,
|
|
material or moral, damages of any kind, arising out of the Licence or of the
|
|
use of the Work, including without limitation, damages for loss of goodwill,
|
|
work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, loss of data or any commercial
|
|
damage, even if the Licensor has been advised of the possibility of such damage.
|
|
However, the Licensor will be liable under statutory product liability laws
|
|
as far such laws apply to the Work.
|
|
|
|
9. Additional agreements
|
|
|
|
While distributing the Work, You may choose to conclude an additional agreement,
|
|
defining obligations or services consistent with this Licence. However, if
|
|
accepting obligations, You may act only on your own behalf and on your sole
|
|
responsibility, not on behalf of the original Licensor or any other Contributor,
|
|
and only if You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold each Contributor harmless
|
|
for any liability incurred by, or claims asserted against such Contributor
|
|
by the fact You have accepted any warranty or additional liability.
|
|
|
|
10. Acceptance of the Licence
|
|
|
|
The provisions of this Licence can be accepted by clicking on an icon 'I agree'
|
|
placed under the bottom of a window displaying the text of this Licence or
|
|
by affirming consent in any other similar way, in accordance with the rules
|
|
of applicable law. Clicking on that icon indicates your clear and irrevocable
|
|
acceptance of this Licence and all of its terms and conditions.
|
|
|
|
Similarly, you irrevocably accept this Licence and all of its terms and conditions
|
|
by exercising any rights granted to You by Article 2 of this Licence, such
|
|
as the use of the Work, the creation by You of a Derivative Work or the Distribution
|
|
or Communication by You of the Work or copies thereof.
|
|
|
|
11. Information to the public
|
|
|
|
In case of any Distribution or Communication of the Work by means of electronic
|
|
communication by You (for example, by offering to download the Work from a
|
|
remote location) the distribution channel or media (for example, a website)
|
|
must at least provide to the public the information requested by the applicable
|
|
law regarding the Licensor, the Licence and the way it may be accessible,
|
|
concluded, stored and reproduced by the Licensee.
|
|
|
|
12. Termination of the Licence
|
|
|
|
The Licence and the rights granted hereunder will terminate automatically
|
|
upon any breach by the Licensee of the terms of the Licence.
|
|
|
|
Such a termination will not terminate the licences of any person who has received
|
|
the Work from the Licensee under the Licence, provided such persons remain
|
|
in full compliance with the Licence.
|
|
|
|
13. Miscellaneous
|
|
|
|
Without prejudice of Article 9 above, the Licence represents the complete
|
|
agreement between the Parties as to the Work.
|
|
|
|
If any provision of the Licence is invalid or unenforceable under applicable
|
|
law, this will not affect the validity or enforceability of the Licence as
|
|
a whole. Such provision will be construed or reformed so as necessary to make
|
|
it valid and enforceable.
|
|
|
|
The European Commission may publish other linguistic versions or new versions
|
|
of this Licence or updated versions of the Appendix, so far this is required
|
|
and reasonable, without reducing the scope of the rights granted by the Licence.
|
|
New versions of the Licence will be published with a unique version number.
|
|
|
|
All linguistic versions of this Licence, approved by the European Commission,
|
|
have identical value. Parties can take advantage of the linguistic version
|
|
of their choice.
|
|
|
|
14. Jurisdiction
|
|
|
|
Without prejudice to specific agreement between parties,
|
|
|
|
— any litigation resulting from the interpretation of this License, arising
|
|
between the European Union institutions, bodies, offices or agencies, as a
|
|
Licensor, and any Licensee, will be subject to the jurisdiction of the Court
|
|
of Justice of the European Union, as laid down in article 272 of the Treaty
|
|
on the Functioning of the European Union,
|
|
|
|
— any litigation arising between other parties and resulting from the interpretation
|
|
of this License, will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the competent
|
|
court where the Licensor resides or conducts its primary business.
|
|
|
|
15. Applicable Law

|
|
|
Without prejudice to specific agreement between parties,
|
|
|
|
— this Licence shall be governed by the law of the European Union Member State
|
|
where the Licensor has his seat, resides or has his registered office,
|
|
|
|
— this licence shall be governed by Belgian law if the Licensor has no seat,
|
|
residence or registered office inside a European Union Member State.
