## 2. Grant of Rights

### 2.1 Copyright License

(a) You retain ownership of the Copyright in Your Contribution and have the 
    same rights to use or license the Contribution which You would have had 
    without entering into the Agreement.

(b) To the maximum extent permitted by the relevant law, You grant to Us a 
    perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, transferable, royalty-free, 
    irrevocable license under the Copyright covering the Contribution, with 
    the right to sublicense such rights through multiple tiers of 
    sublicensees, to reproduce, modify, display, perform and distribute the 
    Contribution as part of the Material; provided that this license is 
    conditioned upon compliance with Section 2.3.

### 2.2 Patent License

For patent claims including, without limitation, method, process, and apparatus 
claims which You own, control or have the right to grant, now or in the future, 
You grant to Us a perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, transferable, 
royalty-free, irrevocable patent license, with the right to sublicense these 
rights to multiple tiers of sublicensees, to make, have made, use, sell, offer 
for sale, import and otherwise transfer the Contribution and the Contribution 
in combination with the Material (and portions of such combination).

### 2.3 Outbound License

Based on the grant of rights in Sections 2.1 and 2.2, if We include Your 
Contribution in a Material, We may license the Contribution under any license, 
including copyleft, permissive, commercial, or proprietary licenses. As a 
condition on the exercise of this right, We agree to also license the 
Contribution under the terms of the license or licenses which We are using for 
the Material on the Submission Date.

### 2.4 Moral Rights

If moral rights apply to the Contribution, to the maximum extent permitted by 
law, You waive and agree not to assert such moral rights against Us or our 
successors in interest, or any of our licensees, either direct or indirect.

### 2.5 Our Rights

You acknowledge that We are not obligated to use Your Contribution as part of 
the Material and may decide to include any Contribution We consider appropriate.

### 2.6 Reservation of Rights

Any rights not expressly licensed under this section are expressly reserved by 
You.

## 3. Agreement

You confirm that:

(a) You have the legal authority to enter into this Agreement.

(b) You own the Copyright and patent claims covering the Contribution which are 
    required to grant the rights under Section 2.

(c) The grant of rights under Section 2 does not violate any grant of rights 
    which You have made to third parties, including Your employer. If You are 
    an employee, You have had Your employer approve this Agreement or sign the 
    Entity version of this document. If You are less than eighteen years old, 
    please have Your parents or guardian sign the Agreement.

(d) You have followed the instructions in the Material, if any, that explain 
    the process for Submitting Contributions.

## 4. Disclaimer

EXCEPT FOR THE EXPRESS WARRANTIES IN SECTION 3, THE CONTRIBUTION IS PROVIDED 
"AS IS". MORE PARTICULARLY, ALL EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES INCLUDING, 
WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A 
PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NON-INFRINGEMENT ARE EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMED BY YOU TO US. 
TO THE EXTENT THAT ANY SUCH WARRANTIES CANNOT BE DISCLAIMED, SUCH WARRANTY IS 
LIMITED IN DURATION TO THE MINIMUM PERIOD PERMITTED BY LAW.

## 5. Consequential Damage Waiver

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL YOU BE 
LIABLE FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, LOSS OF ANTICIPATED SAVINGS, LOSS OF DATA, 
INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL AND EXEMPLARY DAMAGES ARISING OUT 
OF THIS AGREEMENT REGARDLESS OF THE LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY (CONTRACT, TORT 
OR OTHERWISE) UPON WHICH THE CLAIM IS BASED.

## 6. Miscellaneous

6.1 This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the 
    laws of Estonia excluding its conflicts of law provisions. Under certain 
    circumstances, the governing law in this section might be superseded by 
    the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of 
    Goods ("UN Convention") and the parties intend to avoid the application 
    of the UN Convention to this Agreement and, thus, exclude the application 
    of the UN Convention in its entirety to this Agreement.

6.2 This Agreement sets out the entire agreement between You and Us for Your 
    Contributions to Us and overrides all other agreements or understandings.

6.3 If You or We assign the rights or obligations received through this 
    Agreement to a third party, as a condition of the assignment, that third 
    party must agree in writing to abide by all the rights and obligations in 
    the Agreement.

6.4 The failure of either party to require performance by the other party of 
    any provision of this Agreement in one situation shall not affect the right 
    of a party to require such performance at any time in the future. A waiver 
    of performance under a provision in one situation shall not be considered a 
    waiver of the performance of the provision in the future or a waiver of the 
    provision in its entirety.

6.5 If any provision of this Agreement is found void and unenforceable, such 
    provision will be replaced to the extent possible with a provision that 
    comes closest to the meaning of the original provision and which is 
    enforceable. The terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement shall 
    apply notwithstanding any failure of essential purpose of this Agreement or 
    any limited remedy to the maximum extent possible under law.
