|  | 2 | +EUPL © the European Union 2007, 2016 | 
|  | 3 | + | 
|  | 4 | +This European Union Public Licence (the ‘EUPL’) applies to the Work (as defined below) which is provided under the | 
|  | 5 | +terms of this Licence. Any use of the Work, other than as authorised under this Licence is prohibited (to the extent such | 
|  | 6 | +use is covered by a right of the copyright holder of the Work). | 
|  | 7 | +The Work is provided under the terms of this Licence when the Licensor (as defined below) has placed the following | 
|  | 8 | +notice immediately following the copyright notice for the Work: | 
|  | 9 | +                          Licensed under the EUPL | 
|  | 10 | +or has expressed by any other means his willingness to license under the EUPL. | 
|  | 11 | + | 
|  | 12 | +1.Definitions | 
|  | 13 | +In this Licence, the following terms have the following meaning: | 
|  | 14 | +— ‘The Licence’:this Licence. | 
|  | 15 | +— ‘The Original Work’:the work or software distributed or communicated by the Licensor under this Licence, available | 
|  | 16 | +as Source Code and also as Executable Code as the case may be. | 
|  | 17 | +— ‘Derivative Works’:the works or software that could be created by the Licensee, based upon the Original Work or | 
|  | 18 | +modifications thereof. This Licence does not define the extent of modification or dependence on the Original Work | 
|  | 19 | +required in order to classify a work as a Derivative Work; this extent is determined by copyright law applicable in | 
|  | 20 | +the country mentioned in Article 15. | 
|  | 21 | +— ‘The Work’:the Original Work or its Derivative Works. | 
|  | 22 | +— ‘The Source Code’:the human-readable form of the Work which is the most convenient for people to study and | 
|  | 23 | +modify. | 
|  | 24 | +— ‘The Executable Code’:any code which has generally been compiled and which is meant to be interpreted by | 
|  | 25 | +a computer as a program. | 
|  | 26 | +— ‘The Licensor’:the natural or legal person that distributes or communicates the Work under the Licence. | 
|  | 27 | +— ‘Contributor(s)’:any natural or legal person who modifies the Work under the Licence, or otherwise contributes to | 
|  | 28 | +the creation of a Derivative Work. | 
|  | 29 | +— ‘The Licensee’ or ‘You’:any natural or legal person who makes any usage of the Work under the terms of the | 
|  | 30 | +Licence. | 
|  | 31 | +— ‘Distribution’ or ‘Communication’:any act of selling, giving, lending, renting, distributing, communicating, | 
|  | 32 | +transmitting, or otherwise making available, online or offline, copies of the Work or providing access to its essential | 
|  | 33 | +functionalities at the disposal of any other natural or legal person. | 
|  | 34 | + | 
|  | 35 | +2.Scope of the rights granted by the Licence | 
|  | 36 | +The Licensor hereby grants You a worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive, sublicensable licence to do the following, for | 
|  | 37 | +the duration of copyright vested in the Original Work: | 
|  | 38 | +— use the Work in any circumstance and for all usage, | 
|  | 39 | +— reproduce the Work, | 
|  | 40 | +— modify the Work, and make Derivative Works based upon the Work, | 
|  | 41 | +— communicate to the public, including the right to make available or display the Work or copies thereof to the public | 
|  | 42 | +and perform publicly, as the case may be, the Work, | 
|  | 43 | +— distribute the Work or copies thereof, | 
|  | 44 | +— lend and rent the Work or copies thereof, | 
|  | 45 | +— sublicense rights in the Work or copies thereof. | 
|  | 46 | +Those rights can be exercised on any media, supports and formats, whether now known or later invented, as far as the | 
|  | 47 | +applicable law permits so. | 
|  | 48 | +In the countries where moral rights apply, the Licensor waives his right to exercise his moral right to the extent allowed | 
|  | 49 | +by law in order to make effective the licence of the economic rights here above listed. | 
|  | 50 | +The Licensor grants to the Licensee royalty-free, non-exclusive usage rights to any patents held by the Licensor, to the | 
|  | 51 | +extent necessary to make use of the rights granted on the Work under this Licence. | 
|  | 52 | + | 
|  | 53 | +3.Communication of the Source Code | 
|  | 54 | +The Licensor may provide the Work either in its Source Code form, or as Executable Code. If the Work is provided as | 
|  | 55 | +Executable Code, the Licensor provides in addition a machine-readable copy of the Source Code of the Work along with | 
|  | 56 | +each copy of the Work that the Licensor distributes or indicates, in a notice following the copyright notice attached to | 
|  | 57 | +the Work, a repository where the Source Code is easily and freely accessible for as long as the Licensor continues to | 
|  | 58 | +distribute or communicate the Work. | 
|  | 59 | + | 
|  | 60 | +4.Limitations on copyright | 
|  | 61 | +Nothing in this Licence is intended to deprive the Licensee of the benefits from any exception or limitation to the | 
|  | 62 | +exclusive rights of the rights owners in the Work, of the exhaustion of those rights or of other applicable limitations | 
|  | 63 | +thereto. | 
|  | 64 | + | 
|  | 65 | +5.Obligations of the Licensee | 
|  | 66 | +The grant of the rights mentioned above is subject to some restrictions and obligations imposed on the Licensee. Those | 
|  | 67 | +obligations are the following: | 
|  | 68 | + | 
|  | 69 | +Attribution right: The Licensee shall keep intact all copyright, patent or trademarks notices and all notices that refer to | 
|  | 70 | +the Licence and to the disclaimer of warranties. The Licensee must include a copy of such notices and a copy of the | 
|  | 71 | +Licence with every copy of the Work he/she distributes or communicates. The Licensee must cause any Derivative Work | 
|  | 72 | +to carry prominent notices stating that the Work has been modified and the date of modification. | 
|  | 73 | + | 
|  | 74 | +Copyleft clause: If the Licensee distributes or communicates copies of the Original Works or Derivative Works, this | 
|  | 75 | +Distribution or Communication will be done under the terms of this Licence or of a later version of this Licence unless | 
|  | 76 | +the Original Work is expressly distributed only under this version of the Licence — for example by communicating | 
|  | 77 | +‘EUPL v. 1.2 only’. The Licensee (becoming Licensor) cannot offer or impose any additional terms or conditions on the | 
|  | 78 | +Work or Derivative Work that alter or restrict the terms of the Licence. | 
|  | 79 | + | 
|  | 80 | +Compatibility clause: If the Licensee Distributes or Communicates Derivative Works or copies thereof based upon both | 
|  | 81 | +the Work and another work licensed under a Compatible Licence, this Distribution or Communication can be done | 
|  | 82 | +under the terms of this Compatible Licence. For the sake of this clause, ‘Compatible Licence’ refers to the licences listed | 
|  | 83 | +in the appendix attached to this Licence. Should the Licensee's obligations under the Compatible Licence conflict with | 
|  | 84 | +his/her obligations under this Licence, the obligations of the Compatible Licence shall prevail. | 
|  | 85 | + | 
|  | 86 | +Provision of Source Code: When distributing or communicating copies of the Work, the Licensee will provide | 
|  | 87 | +a machine-readable copy of the Source Code or indicate a repository where this Source will be easily and freely available | 
|  | 88 | +for as long as the Licensee continues to distribute or communicate the Work. | 
|  | 89 | +Legal Protection: This Licence does not grant permission to use the trade names, trademarks, service marks, or names | 
|  | 90 | +of the Licensor, except as required for reasonable and customary use in describing the origin of the Work and | 
|  | 91 | +reproducing the content of the copyright notice. | 
|  | 92 | + | 
|  | 93 | +6.Chain of Authorship | 
|  | 94 | +The original Licensor warrants that the copyright in the Original Work granted hereunder is owned by him/her or | 
|  | 95 | +licensed to him/her and that he/she has the power and authority to grant the Licence. | 
|  | 96 | +Each Contributor warrants that the copyright in the modifications he/she brings to the Work are owned by him/her or | 
|  | 97 | +licensed to him/her and that he/she has the power and authority to grant the Licence. | 
|  | 98 | +Each time You accept the Licence, the original Licensor and subsequent Contributors grant You a licence to their contributions | 
|  | 99 | +to the Work, under the terms of this Licence. | 
|  | 100 | + | 
|  | 101 | +7.Disclaimer of Warranty | 
|  | 102 | +The Work is a work in progress, which is continuously improved by numerous Contributors. It is not a finished work | 
|  | 103 | +and may therefore contain defects or ‘bugs’ inherent to this type of development. | 
|  | 104 | +For the above reason, the Work is provided under the Licence on an ‘as is’ basis and without warranties of any kind | 
|  | 105 | +concerning the Work, including without limitation merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, absence of defects or | 
|  | 106 | +errors, accuracy, non-infringement of intellectual property rights other than copyright as stated in Article 6 of this | 
|  | 107 | +Licence. | 
|  | 108 | +This disclaimer of warranty is an essential part of the Licence and a condition for the grant of any rights to the Work. | 
|  | 109 | + | 
|  | 110 | +8.Disclaimer of Liability | 
|  | 111 | +Except in the cases of wilful misconduct or damages directly caused to natural persons, the Licensor will in no event be | 
|  | 112 | +liable for any direct or indirect, material or moral, damages of any kind, arising out of the Licence or of the use of the | 
|  | 113 | +Work, including without limitation, damages for loss of goodwill, work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, loss | 
|  | 114 | +of data or any commercial damage, even if the Licensor has been advised of the possibility of such damage. However, | 
|  | 115 | +the Licensor will be liable under statutory product liability laws as far such laws apply to the Work. | 
|  | 116 | + | 
|  | 117 | +9.Additional agreements | 
|  | 118 | +While distributing the Work, You may choose to conclude an additional agreement, defining obligations or services | 
|  | 119 | +consistent with this Licence. However, if accepting obligations, You may act only on your own behalf and on your sole | 
|  | 120 | +responsibility, not on behalf of the original Licensor or any other Contributor, and only if You agree to indemnify, | 
|  | 121 | +defend, and hold each Contributor harmless for any liability incurred by, or claims asserted against such Contributor by | 
|  | 122 | +the fact You have accepted any warranty or additional liability. | 
|  | 123 | + | 
|  | 124 | +10.Acceptance of the Licence | 
|  | 125 | +The provisions of this Licence can be accepted by clicking on an icon ‘I agree’ placed under the bottom of a window | 
|  | 126 | +displaying the text of this Licence or by affirming consent in any other similar way, in accordance with the rules of | 
|  | 127 | +applicable law. Clicking on that icon indicates your clear and irrevocable acceptance of this Licence and all of its terms | 
|  | 128 | +and conditions. | 
|  | 129 | +Similarly, you irrevocably accept this Licence and all of its terms and conditions by exercising any rights granted to You | 
|  | 130 | +by Article 2 of this Licence, such as the use of the Work, the creation by You of a Derivative Work or the Distribution | 
|  | 131 | +or Communication by You of the Work or copies thereof. | 
|  | 132 | + | 
|  | 133 | +11.Information to the public | 
|  | 134 | +In case of any Distribution or Communication of the Work by means of electronic communication by You (for example, | 
|  | 135 | +by offering to download the Work from a remote location) the distribution channel or media (for example, a website) | 
|  | 136 | +must at least provide to the public the information requested by the applicable law regarding the Licensor, the Licence | 
|  | 137 | +and the way it may be accessible, concluded, stored and reproduced by the Licensee. | 
|  | 138 | + | 
|  | 139 | +12.Termination of the Licence | 
|  | 140 | +The Licence and the rights granted hereunder will terminate automatically upon any breach by the Licensee of the terms | 
|  | 141 | +of the Licence. | 
|  | 142 | +Such a termination will not terminate the licences of any person who has received the Work from the Licensee under | 
|  | 143 | +the Licence, provided such persons remain in full compliance with the Licence. | 
|  | 144 | + | 
|  | 145 | +13.Miscellaneous | 
|  | 146 | +Without prejudice of Article 9 above, the Licence represents the complete agreement between the Parties as to the | 
|  | 147 | +Work. | 
|  | 148 | +If any provision of the Licence is invalid or unenforceable under applicable law, this will not affect the validity or | 
|  | 149 | +enforceability of the Licence as a whole. Such provision will be construed or reformed so as necessary to make it valid | 
|  | 150 | +and enforceable. | 
|  | 151 | +The European Commission may publish other linguistic versions or new versions of this Licence or updated versions of | 
|  | 152 | +the Appendix, so far this is required and reasonable, without reducing the scope of the rights granted by the Licence. | 
|  | 153 | +New versions of the Licence will be published with a unique version number. | 
|  | 154 | +All linguistic versions of this Licence, approved by the European Commission, have identical value. Parties can take | 
|  | 155 | +advantage of the linguistic version of their choice. | 
|  | 156 | + | 
|  | 157 | +14.Jurisdiction | 
|  | 158 | +Without prejudice to specific agreement between parties, | 
|  | 159 | +— any litigation resulting from the interpretation of this License, arising between the European Union institutions, | 
|  | 160 | +bodies, offices or agencies, as a Licensor, and any Licensee, will be subject to the jurisdiction of the Court of Justice | 
|  | 161 | +of the European Union, as laid down in article 272 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, | 
|  | 162 | +— any litigation arising between other parties and resulting from the interpretation of this License, will be subject to | 
|  | 163 | +the exclusive jurisdiction of the competent court where the Licensor resides or conducts its primary business. | 
|  | 164 | + | 
|  | 165 | +15.Applicable Law | 
|  | 166 | +Without prejudice to specific agreement between parties, | 
|  | 167 | +— this Licence shall be governed by the law of the European Union Member State where the Licensor has his seat, | 
|  | 168 | +resides or has his registered office, | 
|  | 169 | +— this licence shall be governed by Belgian law if the Licensor has no seat, residence or registered office inside | 
|  | 170 | +a European Union Member State. | 
|  | 171 | + | 
|  | 172 | + | 
|  | 173 | +                                                         Appendix |
