# OpenKara Individual Contributor License Agreement

Version 1.0 — 2026-10-05

Thank you for contributing to OpenKara (the "Project"). This Contributor
License Agreement ("Agreement") clarifies the rights you grant to the owner of
the Project, GitHub user [@thedavidweng](https://github.com/thedavidweng)
(the "Maintainer"), in your Contributions. You keep
the copyright in your Contributions. This Agreement only gives the Maintainer
the licenses described below.

You accept this Agreement by commenting on a pull request with the sentence
requested by the CLA bot:

> I have read the CLA Document and I hereby sign the CLA

Your acceptance covers your Contributions in the pull request where you sign
and Contributions you submit to the Project after signing. Previously merged
Contributions are covered only if you expressly identify them in a separate
signed agreement.

## 1. Definitions

"You" means the individual who submits a Contribution.

"Contribution" means any original work of authorship, including any changes
or additions to existing work, that You intentionally submit to the Project
for inclusion, for example through a pull request, patch, or issue.

## 2. Copyright license

You grant the Maintainer, and recipients of software distributed by the
Maintainer, 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.

## 3. Right to relicense

You agree that the Maintainer may license Your Contributions, alone or as
part of the Project, under any license terms, including open source licenses
other than the license the Project uses at the time of Your Contribution, and
proprietary or commercial licenses. This right passes to any successor or
assignee of the Project.

## 4. Patent license

You grant the Maintainer, and recipients of software distributed by the
Maintainer, a perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free,
irrevocable patent license to make, have made, use, offer to sell, sell,
import, and otherwise transfer Your Contributions, where the license covers
only those patent claims licensable by You that are necessarily infringed by
Your Contribution alone or by its combination with the Project.

## 5. Your representations

You represent that:

- Each Contribution is Your original creation, and You are legally entitled
  to grant the licenses above.
- If Your employer has rights to intellectual property You create, You have
  received permission to make the Contribution on its behalf, or Your
  employer has waived those rights.
- Your Contribution does not include code copied from third-party sources
  under licenses that would prevent the relicensing described in section 3,
  such as GPL or AGPL code you do not own. If a Contribution includes any
  third-party material, You identify it and its license in the pull request.

## 6. No warranty

Unless required by applicable law or agreed to in writing, You provide Your
Contributions "as is", without warranties or conditions of any kind. You are
not expected to provide support for Your Contributions.

## 7. Notification

You agree to notify the Maintainer if You become aware of any facts or
circumstances that would make these representations inaccurate.
