> Statement of Purpose
>
> The laws of most jurisdictions throughout the world automatically confer
> exclusive Copyright and Related Rights (defined below) upon the creator
> and subsequent owner(s) (each and all, an "owner") of an original work of
> authorship and/or a database (each, a "Work").
>
> Certain owners wish to permanently relinquish those rights to a Work for
> the purpose of contributing to a commons of creative, cultural and
> scientific works ("Commons") that the public can reliably and without fear
> of later claims of infringement build upon, modify, incorporate in other
> works, reuse and redistribute as freely as possible in any form whatsoever
> and for any purposes, including without limitation commercial purposes.
> These owners may contribute to the Commons to promote the ideal of a free
> culture and the further production of creative, cultural and scientific
> works, or to gain reputation or greater distribution for their Work in
> part through the use and efforts of others.
>
> For these and/or other purposes and motivations, and without any
> expectation of additional consideration or compensation, the person
> associating CC0 with a Work (the "Affirmer"), to the extent that he or she
> is an owner of Copyright and Related Rights in the Work, voluntarily
> elects to apply CC0 to the Work and publicly distribute the Work under its
> terms, with knowledge of his or her Copyright and Related Rights in the
> Work and the meaning and intended legal effect of CC0 on those rights.
>
> 1. 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. Affirmer understands and acknowledges that Creative Commons is not a
>     party to this document and has no duty or obligation with respect to
>     this CC0 or use of the Work.
