# Donut Browser Software Grant and Contributor License Agreement ("Agreement")
This agreement is based on the Apache Software Foundation Contributor License Agreement. (v r190612)
Thank you for your interest in the Donut Browser project ("Donut Browser" or "the Project"). In order to clarify the intellectual property license granted with Contributions from any person or entity, Donut Browser must have a Contributor License Agreement (CLA) on file that has been agreed to by each Contributor, indicating agreement to the license terms below. This license is for your protection as a Contributor as well as the protection of Donut Browser and its users; it does not change your rights to use your own Contributions for any other purpose. This Agreement allows an individual to contribute to Donut Browser on that individual's own behalf, or an entity (the "Corporation") to submit Contributions to Donut Browser, to authorize Contributions submitted by its designated employees to Donut Browser, and to grant copyright and patent licenses thereto.
You accept and agree to the following terms and conditions for Your present and future Contributions submitted to Donut Browser. Except for the license granted herein to Donut Browser and recipients of software distributed by Donut Browser, You reserve all right, title, and interest in and to Your Contributions.
1. Definitions. "You" (or "Your") shall mean the copyright owner or legal entity authorized by the copyright owner that is making this Agreement with Donut Browser. For legal entities, the entity making a Contribution and all other entities that control, are controlled by, or are under common control with that entity are considered to be a single Contributor. For the 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. "Contribution" shall mean any work, as well as any modifications or additions to an existing work, that is intentionally submitted by You to Donut Browser for inclusion in, or documentation of, any of the products owned or managed by Donut Browser (the "Work"). For the purposes of this definition, "submitted" means any form of electronic, verbal, or written communication sent to Donut Browser or its representatives, including but not limited to communication on electronic mailing lists, source code control systems (such as GitHub), and issue tracking systems that are managed by, or on behalf of, Donut Browser for the purpose of discussing and improving the Work, but excluding communication that is conspicuously marked or otherwise designated in writing by You as "Not a Contribution."
2. Grant of Copyright License. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, You hereby grant to Donut Browser and to recipients of software distributed by Donut Browser 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 under any license terms, including but not limited to the GNU Affero General Public License version 3 (AGPL-3.0) and any commercial or proprietary license terms that Donut Browser may choose to offer. This grant includes the right for Donut Browser to offer the Work, including Your Contributions, under multiple licenses simultaneously (dual or multi-licensing), including both open source and commercial licenses.
3. Grant of Patent License. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, You hereby grant to Donut Browser and to recipients of software distributed by Donut Browser a perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable (except as stated in this section) patent license to make, have made, use, offer to sell, sell, import, and otherwise transfer the Work, where such license applies only to those patent claims licensable by You that are necessarily infringed by Your Contribution(s) alone or by combination of Your Contribution(s) with the Work to which such Contribution(s) were submitted. If any entity institutes patent litigation against You or any other entity (including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that your Contribution, or the Work to which you have contributed, constitutes direct or contributory patent infringement, then any patent licenses granted to that entity under this Agreement for that Contribution or Work shall terminate as of the date such litigation is filed.
4. You represent that You are legally entitled to grant the above license. If You are an individual, and if Your employer(s) has rights to intellectual property that you create that includes Your Contributions, you represent that You have received permission to make Contributions on behalf of that employer, or that Your employer has waived such rights for your Contributions to Donut Browser. If You are a Corporation, any individual who makes a contribution from an account associated with You will be considered authorized to Contribute on Your behalf.
5. You represent that each of Your Contributions is Your original creation (see section 7 for submissions on behalf of others).
6. You are not expected to provide support for Your Contributions, except to the extent You desire to provide support. 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, including, without limitation, any warranties or conditions of TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
7. Should You wish to submit work that is not Your original creation, You may submit it to Donut Browser separately from any Contribution, identifying the complete details of its source and of any license or other restriction (including, but not limited to, related patents, trademarks, and license agreements) of which you are personally aware, and conspicuously marking the work as "Submitted on behalf of a third-party: [named here]".
