By exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree
to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons
Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International Public License
("Public License"). To the extent this Public License may be interpreted as
a contract, You are granted the Licensed Rights in consideration of Your
acceptance of these terms and conditions, and the Licensor grants You
such rights in consideration of benefits the Licensor receives from
making the Licensed Material available under these terms and
conditions.


Section 1 -- Definitions.

  a. Adapted Material means material subject to Copyright and Similar
     Rights that is derived from or based upon the Licensed Material
     and in which the Licensed Material is translated, altered,
     arranged, transformed, or otherwise modified in a manner requiring
     permission under the Copyright and Similar Rights held by the
     Licensor. For purposes of this Public License, where the Licensed
     Material is a musical work, performance, or sound recording,
     Adapted Material is always produced where the Licensed Material is
     synched in timed relation with a moving image.

  b. Adapter's License means the license You apply to Your Copyright and
     Similar Rights in Your contributions to Adapted Material in
     accordance with the terms and conditions of this Public License.

  c. BY-NC-SA Compatible License means a license listed at
     creativecommons.org/compatiblelicenses, approved by Creative
     Commons as essentially the equivalent of this Public License.

  d. Copyright and Similar Rights means copyright and/or similar rights
     closely related to copyright including, without limitation, performance,
     broadcast, sound recording, and Sui Generis Database Rights, without
     regard to how the rights are labeled or categorized. For purposes of
     this Public License, the rights specified in Section 2(b)(1)-(2) are
     not Copyright and Similar Rights.

  e. Effective Technological Measures means those measures that, in the
     absence of proper authority, may not be circumvented under laws
     fulfilling obligations under Article 11 of the WIPO Copyright Treaty
     adopted on December 20, 1996, and/or similar international agreements.

  f. Exceptions and Limitations means fair use, fair dealing, and/or any
     other exception or limitation to Copyright and Similar Rights that
     apply to Your use of the Licensed Material.

  g. Licensed Material means the artistic or literary work, database, or
     other material to which the Licensor applied this Public License.

  i. Licensor means the individual(s) or entity(ies) granting rights
     under this Public License.

  j. NonCommercial means not primarily intended for or directed towards
     commercial advantage or monetary compensation. For purposes of
     this Public License, the exchange of the Licensed Material for a
     fee or other remuneration is considered NonCommercial if the fee or
     remuneration is solely intended to compensate the Licensor for the
     Licensor's time and effort in producing the Licensed Material or to
     provide a financial contribution to the Licensor's non-commercial
     operations, and the exchange is separate and independent from the
     Licensed Material such that the Licensor's commercial operations are
     not enhanced by the exchange.

  k. Original Work means the work to which the Licensor applied this
     Public License.

  l. Share means to provide material to the public by any means or
     process that requires permission under the Licensed Rights, such as
     reproduction, public display, public performance, distribution,
     dissemination, communication, or importation, and to make material
     available to the public including in ways that members of the public
     may access the material from a place and at a time individually chosen
     by them.

  m. Shared with You means the Licensed Material has been provided to
     You by the Licensor, or by a recipient of the Licensed Material from
     the Licensor, under this Public License.

  n. Sui Generis Database Rights means rights other than copyright
     resulting from Directive 96/9/EC of the European Parliament and of the
     Council of 11 March 1996 on the legal protection of databases, as
     amended and/or succeeded, as well as other essentially equivalent rights
     anywhere in the world.

  o. This Public License does not apply to Sui Generis Database Rights to
     the extent they do not fall under Section 2(a)(5).

  p. You means the individual or entity exercising the Licensed Rights
     under this Public License. Your has a corresponding meaning in the
     context of Your acting as the Licensor.


Section 2 -- Scope.

  a. License grant.

        Licensor hereby grants You a worldwide, royalty-free, non-sublicensable,
        non-exclusive, irrevocable license to exercise the Licensed Rights in
        the Licensed Material to:

        a. reproduce and Share the Licensed Material, in whole or in part;

        b. create and reproduce Adapted Material and Share Adapted Material.

     2. Exceptions and Limitations. For the avoidance of doubt, where
        Exceptions and Limitations apply to Your use, this Public License
        does not apply, and You do not need to comply with its terms and
        conditions.

     3. Term. The term of this Public License is specified in Section 6(a).

     4. Media and formats; technical modifications allowed. The Licensor
        authorizes You to exercise the Licensed Rights in all media and
        formats whether now known or hereafter created, and to make technical
        modifications necessary to do so. The Licensor waives and/or agrees
        not to assert any right or authority to forbid You from making
        technical modifications necessary to exercise the Licensed Rights,
        including technical modifications necessary to circumvent Effective
        Technological Measures. For purposes of this Public License, simply as a
        consequence of modifying the Licensed Material, You do not become a
        Licensor of the Licensed Material, and the Adapted Material You create
        is not subject to the terms and conditions of this Public License.

     5. Downstream recipients.

        a. Offer from the Licensor -- Licensed Material: The Licensor
           offers to the recipient of Licensed Material a license to the
           Licensed Material on the same terms and conditions as granted
           to You under this Public License.

        b. Additional offer from the Licensor -- Adapted Material: The
           Licensor offers to the recipient of Adapted Material a license
           to the Adapted Material on the terms and conditions of the
           Adapter's License You apply to Your Adapted Material.

        c. No downstream restrictions. You may not offer or impose any
           additional or different terms or conditions on, or apply any
           Effective Technological Measures to, the Licensed Material if doing
           so restricts exercise of the Licensed Rights by any recipient of
           the Licensed Material.

  b. No endorsement. Nothing in this Public License constitutes or may be
     construed as permission to assert or imply that You are, or that Your
     use of the Licensed Material is, connected with, or sponsored by, the
     Licensor, or any other person.

  c. Fair use; other user rights. Nothing in this Public License is intended
     to reduce, limit, or restrict any uses free from copyright or rights
     arising from limitations or exceptions that are provided for in
     connection with the copyright and other similar rights applicable to
     the particular use or which cannot be waived.

  d. Patent and trademark notice. This Public License does not grant
     permission to use the trade name, trademark, service mark, or similar
     branding of the Licensor, except as required for reasonable and customary
     notice of attribution when You engage in the reproduction or distribution
     of the Licensed Material. This Public License does not grant permission to
     use the patent rights of the Licensor.
