Thank you for your interest in chDB (https://github.com/chdb-io/chdb). In order to clarify the intellectual property license granted with Contributions from any person or entity, the author of chDB, Github User Name:[auxten] (https://github.com/auxten) ("Author")must have a Contributor License Agreement ("CLA") on file that has been signed, accepted or otherwise agreed to by each contributor, indicating agreement to the license terms below.

You accept and agree to the following terms and conditions for Your previous, present and future Contributions submitted to the Author. Except for the license granted herein to the Author and recipients of software distributed by the Author, You reserve all right, title, and interest in and to Your Contributions.

  1. Definitions. "You" (or "Your") shall mean the undersigned person/entity, which is the copyright owner or legal entity authorized by the copyright owner that is making this chDB Individual Contributor License Agreement ("Agreement") with the Author. 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 original work of authorship, including any modifications or additions to an existing work, that was, is and will be intentionally submitted by You to the Author for inclusion in, or documentation of, any of the products owned or managed by the Author under chDB (the "Work"). For the purposes of this definition, "submitted" means any form of electronic, verbal, or written communication sent to the Author or its representatives, including but not limited to communication on electronic mailing lists, source code control systems, and issue tracking systems that are managed by, or on behalf of, the Author 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 the Author and to recipients of software distributed by the Author 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.
  3. Grant of Patent License. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, You hereby grant to the Author and to recipients of software distributed by the Author 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) was 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 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, that your employer has waived such rights for your Contributions to the Author, or that your employer has executed a separate Corporate CLA with the Author.
  5. You represent that each of Your Contributions is Your original creation (see section 7 for submissions on behalf of others). You represent that Your Contribution submissions include complete details of any third-party license or other restriction (including, but not limited to, related patents and trademarks) of which you are personally aware and which are associated with any part of Your Contributions.
  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 the Author 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]".
  8. You agree to notify the Author of any facts or circumstances of which you become aware that would make these representations inaccurate in any respect.
  9. You acknowledge that this Agreement shall govern all rights and obligations between You and the Author with respect to the Contribution. This Agreement sets forth the complete, final and exclusive agreement between You and the Author concerning the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings between You and the Author with respect to such subject matter.
  10. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable under any present or future applicable law, (a) such provision shall be fully severable, (b) this Agreement shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision had never comprised a part hereof, (c) the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be affected by the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision or by its severance herefrom and (d) in lieu of such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision, there shall be added automatically as a part of this Agreement a legal, valid and enforceable provision as similar in terms to such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision as may be possible and reasonably acceptable to You and the Author.
