     5  ## Acceptance
     6  
     7  In order to get any license under these terms, you must agree
     8  to them as both strict obligations and conditions to all
     9  your licenses.
    10  
    11  ## Copyright License
    12  
    13  The licensor grants you a copyright license for the
    14  software to do everything you might do with the software
    15  that would otherwise infringe the licensor's copyright
    16  in it for any permitted purpose.  However, you may
    17  only distribute the software according to [Distribution
    18  License](#distribution-license) and make changes or new works
    19  based on the software according to [Changes and New Works
    20  License](#changes-and-new-works-license).
    21  
    22  ## Distribution License
    23  
    24  The licensor grants you an additional copyright license
    25  to distribute copies of the software.  Your license
    26  to distribute covers distributing the software with
    27  changes and new works permitted by [Changes and New Works
    28  License](#changes-and-new-works-license).
    29  
    30  ## Notices
    31  
    32  You must ensure that anyone who gets a copy of any part of
    33  the software from you also gets a copy of these terms or the
    34  URL for them above, as well as copies of any plain-text lines
    35  beginning with `Required Notice:` that the licensor provided
    36  with the software.  For example:
    37  
    38  > Required Notice: Copyright Yoyodyne, Inc. (http://example.com)
    39  
    40  ## Changes and New Works License
    41  
    42  The licensor grants you an additional copyright license to
    43  make changes and new works based on the software for any
    44  permitted purpose.
    45  
    46  ## Patent License
    47  
    48  The licensor grants you a patent license for the software that
    49  covers patent claims the licensor can license, or becomes able
    50  to license, that you would infringe by using the software.
    51  
    52  ## Fair Use
    53  
    54  You may have "fair use" rights for the software under the
    55  law. These terms do not limit them.
    56  
    57  ## Small Business
    58  
    59  Use of the software for the benefit of your company is use for
    60  a permitted purpose if your company has fewer than 100 total
    61  individuals working as employees and independent contractors,
    62  and less than 1,000,000 USD (2019) total revenue in the prior
    63  tax year.  Adjust this revenue threshold for inflation according
    64  to the United States Bureau of Labor Statistics' consumer price
    65  index for all urban consumers, U.S. city average, for all items,
    66  not seasonally adjusted, with 1982–1984=100 reference base.
    67  
    68  ## No Other Rights
    69  
    70  These terms do not allow you to sublicense or transfer any of
    71  your licenses to anyone else, or prevent the licensor from
    72  granting licenses to anyone else.  These terms do not imply
    73  any other licenses.
    74  
    75  ## Patent Defense
    76  
    77  If you make any written claim that the software infringes or
    78  contributes to infringement of any patent, your patent license
    79  for the software granted under these terms ends immediately. If
    80  your company makes such a claim, your patent license ends
    81  immediately for work on behalf of your company.
    82  
    83  ## Violations
    84  
    85  The first time you are notified in writing that you have
    86  violated any of these terms, or done anything with the software
    87  not covered by your licenses, your licenses can nonetheless
    88  continue if you come into full compliance with these terms,
    89  and take practical steps to correct past violations, within
    90  32 days of receiving notice.  Otherwise, all your licenses
    91  end immediately.
    92  
    93  ## No Liability
    94  
    95  ***As far as the law allows, the software comes as is, without
    96  any warranty or condition, and the licensor will not be liable
    97  to you for any damages arising out of these terms or the use
    98  or nature of the software, under any kind of legal claim.***
