Thank you for your interest in contributing to CommitBee (the "Project"), maintained by Sephyi (the "Maintainer"). This Contributor License Agreement ("Agreement") clarifies the intellectual property rights granted with Contributions from any person or entity. This is a legally binding document, so please read it carefully before agreeing.
By signing this Agreement (via the CLA bot on a pull request), you accept and agree to the following terms for your present and future Contributions submitted to the Project.
"Contribution" means any original work of authorship, including any modifications or additions to an existing work, that you intentionally submit to the Project. "Submit" means any form of electronic communication sent to the Project (e.g., pull requests, commits, issue comments), excluding communications conspicuously marked "Not a Contribution."
"You" (or "Your") means the individual or legal entity making the Contribution. For legal entities, the entity making the Contribution and all entities that control, are controlled by, or are under common control with that entity are considered a single Contributor.
You hereby grant to the Maintainer and to recipients of software distributed by the Maintainer a perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable copyright license to reproduce, prepare derivative works of, publicly display, publicly perform, sublicense, and distribute Your Contributions and such derivative works.
You retain all right, title, and interest in and to Your Contributions. This Agreement does not transfer copyright ownership.
You hereby grant to the Maintainer and to recipients of software distributed by the Maintainer a perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable patent license to make, have made, use, offer to sell, sell, import, and otherwise transfer the Contribution, where such license applies only to those patent claims licensable by You that are necessarily infringed by Your Contribution alone or by combination of Your Contribution with the Project.
You acknowledge that the Project is distributed under a dual-license model:
- AGPL-3.0-only — the open-source license
- LicenseRef-Commercial — a proprietary commercial license
You expressly agree that Your Contributions may be distributed under either or both of these licenses, and that the Maintainer may offer Your Contributions to third parties under the commercial license without further permission from or compensation to You.
You represent that:
-
(a) You are legally entitled to grant the above licenses. If Your employer has rights to intellectual property that You create, You represent that You have received permission to make Contributions on behalf of that employer, or that Your employer has waived such rights.
-
(b) Each Contribution is Your original creation. If any part of Your Contribution includes work that is not Your original creation, You will submit it separately with complete details of its source and any applicable license.
-
(c) You are not aware of any third-party claims, liens, or encumbrances on Your Contributions.
You are not expected to provide support for Your Contributions except to the extent You desire. You may provide support for free, for a fee, or not at all. Unless required by applicable law or agreed to in writing, You provide Your Contributions on an "AS IS" BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, either express or implied.
You agree to notify the Maintainer of any facts or circumstances of which You become aware that would make these representations inaccurate in any respect.
