WarnerMedia CLA

WarnerMedia Contributor License Agreement

You accept and agree to the following terms and conditions for Your present Contributions submitted to Warner Media, LLC ("WarnerMedia"). Except for the license granted herein to WarnerMedia and recipients of software distributed by WarnerMedia, You reserve all right, title and interest in and to Your Contribution.

  1. Definitions

    a. "You" (or "Your") shall mean the copyright owner or legal entity authorized by the copyright owner that is making this Agreement with WarnerMedia. 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.

    b. "Contribution" shall mean the code, documentation or any original work of authorship, including any modifications or additions to an existing work, that is intentionally submitted by You to WarnerMedia for inclusion in, or documentation of, any of the products owned or managed by WarnerMedia (the "Work"). For the purposes of this definition, "submitted" means any form of electronic, verbal, or written communication sent to WarnerMedia 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, WarnerMedia 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 License

    a. Grant of Copyright License. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, You hereby grant to WarnerMedia and to recipients of software distributed by WarnerMedia 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.

    b. Grant of Patent License. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, You hereby grant to WarnerMedia and to recipients of the software distributed by WarnerMedia 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.

  3. You represent that You are legally entitled to grant the above license. You represent further that each employee of the Corporation designated by You is authorized to submit Contributions on behalf of the Corporation.

  4. You represent that each of Your Contribution is Your original creation (see section 6 for submission on behalf of others) which does not include other’s open-source code.

  5. You are not expected to provide support for Your Contribution(s), 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 as "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.

  6. Should You wish to submit work that is not Your original creation, You may submit it to WarnerMedia separately from any of your 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]".

  7. Your Contribution shall be made in your own capacity or that of your employer ("Corporation"). It is your responsibility to notify WarnerMedia when any employee is not authorized to submit Contributions on behalf of the Corporation and should not be considered a Contribution of the Corporation.
