## License
5+
6+
Originally the [PolyForm Shield License 1.0.0](https://polyformproject.org/licenses/shield/1.0.0)
7+
8+
### Acceptance
9+
10+
In order to get any license under these terms, you must agree
11+
to them as both strict obligations and conditions to all
12+
your licenses.
13+
14+
### Copyright License
15+
16+
The licensor grants you a copyright license for the
17+
software to do everything you might do with the software
18+
that would otherwise infringe the licensor's copyright
19+
in it for any permitted purpose. However, you may
20+
only distribute the software according to [Distribution
21+
License](#distribution-license) and make changes or new works
22+
based on the software according to [Changes and New Works
23+
License](#changes-and-new-works-license).
24+
25+
### Distribution License
26+
27+
The licensor grants you an additional copyright license
28+
to distribute copies of the software. Your license
29+
to distribute covers distributing the software with
30+
changes and new works permitted by [Changes and New Works
31+
License](#changes-and-new-works-license).
32+
33+
### Notices
34+
35+
You must ensure that anyone who gets a copy of any part of
36+
the software from you also gets a copy of these terms or the
37+
URL for them above, as well as copies of any plain-text lines
38+
beginning with `Required Notice:` that the licensor provided
39+
with the software. For example:
40+
41+
> Required Notice: Copyright Yoyodyne, Inc. (http://example.com)
42+
43+
### Changes and New Works License
44+
45+
The licensor grants you an additional copyright license to
46+
make changes and new works based on the software for any
47+
permitted purpose.
48+
49+
### Patent License
50+
51+
The licensor grants you a patent license for the software that
52+
covers patent claims the licensor can license, or becomes able
53+
to license, that you would infringe by using the software.
54+
55+
### Noncompete
56+
57+
Any purpose is a permitted purpose, except for providing any
58+
product that competes with the software or any product the
59+
licensor or any of its affiliates provides using the software.
60+
61+
### Competition
62+
63+
Goods and services compete even when they provide functionality
64+
through different kinds of interfaces or for different technical
65+
platforms. Applications can compete with services, libraries
66+
with plugins, frameworks with development tools, and so on,
67+
even if they're written in different programming languages
68+
or for different computer architectures. Goods and services
69+
compete even when provided free of charge. If you market a
70+
product as a practical substitute for the software or another
71+
product, it definitely competes.
72+
73+
### New Products
74+
75+
If you are using the software to provide a product that does
76+
not compete, but the licensor or any of its affiliates brings
77+
your product into competition by providing a new version of
78+
the software or another product using the software, you may
79+
continue using versions of the software available under these
80+
terms beforehand to provide your competing product, but not
81+
any later versions.
82+
83+
### Discontinued Products
84+
85+
You may begin using the software to compete with a product
86+
or service that the licensor or any of its affiliates has
87+
stopped providing, unless the licensor includes a plain-text
88+
line beginning with `Licensor Line of Business:` with the
89+
software that mentions that line of business. For example:
90+
91+
> Licensor Line of Business: YoyodyneCMS Content Management
92+
System (http://example.com/cms)
93+
94+
### Sales of Business
95+
96+
If the licensor or any of its affiliates sells a line of
97+
business developing the software or using the software
98+
to provide a product, the buyer can also enforce
99+
[Noncompete](#noncompete) for that product.
100+
101+
### Fair Use
102+
103+
You may have "fair use" rights for the software under the
104+
law. These terms do not limit them.
105+
106+
### No Other Rights
107+
108+
These terms do not allow you to sublicense or transfer any of
109+
your licenses to anyone else, or prevent the licensor from
110+
granting licenses to anyone else. These terms do not imply
111+
any other licenses.
112+
113+
### Patent Defense
114+
115+
If you make any written claim that the software infringes or
116+
contributes to infringement of any patent, your patent license
117+
for the software granted under these terms ends immediately. If
118+
your company makes such a claim, your patent license ends
119+
immediately for work on behalf of your company.
120+
121+
### Violations
122+
123+
The first time you are notified in writing that you have
124+
violated any of these terms, or done anything with the software
125+
not covered by your licenses, your licenses can nonetheless
126+
continue if you come into full compliance with these terms,
127+
and take practical steps to correct past violations, within
128+
32 days of receiving notice. Otherwise, all your licenses
129+
end immediately.
130+
131+
### No Liability
132+
133+
***As far as the law allows, the software comes as is, without
134+
any warranty or condition, and the licensor will not be liable
135+
to you for any damages arising out of these terms or the use
136+
or nature of the software, under any kind of legal claim.***
137+
138+
