The CERN OHL is copyright CERN. Anyone is welcome +to use the CERN OHL, in unmodified form only, for the distribution of +their own Open Hardware designs. Any other right is reserved. Release +of hardware designs under the CERN OHL does not constitute an +endorsement of the licensor or its designs nor does it imply any +involvement by CERN in the development of such designs. + +1. Definitions + +In this Licence, the following terms have the following meanings: + +“Licence” means this CERN OHL. + +“Documentation” means schematic diagrams, designs, circuit or circuit +board layouts, mechanical drawings, flow charts and descriptive text, +and other explanatory material that is explicitly stated as being made +available under the conditions of this Licence. The Documentation may +be in any medium, including but not limited to computer files and +representations on paper, film, or any other media. + +“Documentation Location” means a location where the Licensor has +placed Documentation, and which he believes will be publicly +accessible for at least three years from the first communication to +the public or distribution of Documentation. + +“Product” means either an entire, or any part of a, device built using +the Documentation or the modified Documentation. + +“Licensee” means any natural or legal person exercising rights under +this Licence. + +“Licensor” means any natural or legal person that creates or modifies +Documentation and subsequently communicates to the public and/ or +distributes the resulting Documentation under the terms and conditions +of this Licence. + +A Licensee may at the same time be a Licensor, and vice versa. + +Use of the masculine gender includes the feminine and neuter genders +and is employed solely to facilitate reading. + +2. Applicability + +2.1. This Licence governs the use, copying, modification, +communication to the public and distribution of the Documentation, and +the manufacture and distribution of Products. By exercising any right +granted under this Licence, the Licensee irrevocably accepts these +terms and conditions. + +2.2. This Licence is granted by the Licensor directly to the Licensee, +and shall apply worldwide and without limitation in time. The Licensee +may assign his licence rights or grant sub-licences. + +2.3. This Licence does not extend to software, firmware, or code +loaded into programmable devices which may be used in conjunction with +the Documentation, the modified Documentation or with Products, unless +such software, firmware, or code is explicitly expressed to be subject +to this Licence. The use of such software, firmware, or code is +otherwise subject to the applicable licence terms and conditions. + +3. Copying, modification, communication to the public and distribution +of the Documentation + +3.1. The Licensee shall keep intact all copyright and trademarks +notices, all notices referring to Documentation Location, and all +notices that refer to this Licence and to the disclaimer of warranties +that are included in the Documentation. He shall include a copy +thereof in every copy of the Documentation or, as the case may be, +modified Documentation, that he communicates to the public or +distributes. + +3.2. The Licensee may copy, communicate to the public and distribute +verbatim copies of the Documentation, in any medium, subject to the +requirements specified in section 3.1. + +3.3. The Licensee may modify the Documentation or any portion thereof +provided that upon modification of the Documentation, the Licensee +shall make the modified Documentation available from a Documentation +Location such that it can be easily located by an original Licensor +once the Licensee communicates to the public or distributes the +modified Documentation under section 3.4, and, where required by +section 4.1, by a recipient of a Product. However, the Licensor shall +not assert his rights under the foregoing proviso unless or until a +Product is distributed. + +3.4. The Licensee may communicate to the public and distribute the +modified Documentation (thereby in addition to being a Licensee also +becoming a Licensor), always provided that he shall: + +a) comply with section 3.1; + +b) cause the modified Documentation to carry prominent notices stating +that the Licensee has modified the Documentation, with the date and +description of the modifications; + +c) cause the modified Documentation to carry a new Documentation +Location notice if the original Documentation provided for one; + +d) make available the modified Documentation at the same level of +abstraction as that of the Documentation, in the preferred format for +making modifications to it (e.g. the native format of the CAD tool as +applicable), and in the event that format is proprietary, in a format +viewable with a tool licensed under an OSI-approved license if the +proprietary tool can create it; and + +e) license the modified Documentation under the terms and conditions +of this Licence or, where applicable, a later version of this Licence +as may be issued by CERN. + +3.5. The Licence includes a non-exclusive licence to those patents or +registered designs that are held by, under the control of, or +sub-licensable by the Licensor, to the extent necessary to make use of +the rights granted under this Licence. The scope of this section 3.5 +shall be strictly limited to the parts of the Documentation or +modified Documentation created by the Licensor. + +4. Manufacture and distribution of Products + +4.1. The Licensee may manufacture or distribute Products always +provided that, where such manufacture or distribution requires a +licence under this Licence the Licensee provides to each recipient of +such Products an easy means of accessing a copy of the Documentation +or modified Documentation, as applicable, as set out in section 3. + +4.2. The Licensee is invited to inform any Licensor who has indicated +his wish to receive this information about the type, quantity and +dates of production of Products the Licensee has (had) manufactured + +5. Warranty and liability + +5.1. DISCLAIMER – The Documentation and any modified Documentation are +provided "as is" and any express or implied warranties, including, but +not limited to, implied warranties of merchantability, of satisfactory +quality, non-infringement of third party rights, and fitness for a +particular purpose or use are disclaimed in respect of the +Documentation, the modified Documentation or any Product. The Licensor +makes no representation that the Documentation, modified +Documentation, or any Product, does or will not infringe any patent, +copyright, trade secret or other proprietary right. The entire risk as +to the use, quality, and performance of a Product shall be with the +Licensee and not the Licensor. This disclaimer of warranty is an +essential part of this Licence and a condition for the grant of any +rights granted under this Licence. The Licensee warrants that it does +not act in a consumer capacity. + +5.2. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY – The Licensor shall have no liability +for direct, indirect, special, incidental, consequential, exemplary, +punitive or other damages of any character including, without +limitation, procurement of substitute goods or services, loss of use, +data or profits, or business interruption, however caused and on any +theory of contract, warranty, tort (including negligence), product +liability or otherwise, arising in any way in relation to the +Documentation, modified Documentation and/or the use, manufacture or +distribution of a Product, even if advised of the possibility of such +damages, and the Licensee shall hold the Licensor(s) free and harmless +from any liability, costs, damages, fees and expenses, including +claims by third parties, in relation to such use. + +6. General + +6.1. Except for the rights explicitly granted hereunder, this Licence +does not imply or represent any transfer or assignment of intellectual +property rights to the Licensee. + +6.2. The Licensee shall not use or make reference to any of the names +(including acronyms and abbreviations), images, or logos under which +the Licensor is known, save in so far as required to comply with +section 3. Any such permitted use or reference shall be factual and +shall in no event suggest any kind of endorsement by the Licensor or +its personnel of the modified Documentation or any Product, or any +kind of implication by the Licensor or its personnel in the +preparation of the modified Documentation or Product. + +6.3. CERN may publish updated versions of this Licence which retain +the same general provisions as this version, but differ in detail so +far this is required and reasonable. New versions will be published +with a unique version number. + +6.4. This Licence shall terminate with immediate effect, upon written +notice and without involvement of a court if the Licensee fails to +comply with any of its terms and conditions, or if the Licensee +initiates legal action against Licensor in relation to this +Licence. Section 5 shall continue to apply. |
