Scope

Licence grant

Subject to the terms and conditions of this Public Licence, the Licensor hereby grants You a worldwide, royalty-free, non-sublicensable, non-exclusive, irrevocable licence to exercise the Licensed Rights in the Licensed Material to:

a) reproduce and Share the Licensed Material, in whole or in part, for Non Commercial purposes only; and

b) produce, reproduce, and Share Adapted Material for Non Commercial purposes only.

For the avoidance of doubt, where Exceptions and Limitations apply to Your use, this Public Licence does not apply, and You do not need to comply with its terms and conditions.
The Licensor authorises You to exercise the Licensed Rights in all media and formats whether now known or hereafter created, and to make technical modifications necessary to do so.  The Licensor waives and/or agrees not to assert any right or authority to forbid You from making technical modifications necessary to exercise the Licensed Rights, including technical modifications necessary to circumvent Effective Technological Measures.  For purposes of this Public Licence, simply making modifications authorised by this clause 2.1.3 never produces Adapted Material. 
Downstream recipients

Every recipient of the Licensed Material automatically receives an offer from the Licensor to exercise the Licensed Rights under the terms and conditions of this Public Licence.
You may not offer or impose any additional or different terms or conditions on, or apply any Effective Technological Measures to, the Licensed Material if doing so restricts exercise of the Licensed Rights by any recipient of the Licensed Material.
Nothing in this Public Licence constitutes or may be construed as permission to assert or imply that You are, or that Your use of the Licensed Material is, connected with, or sponsored, endorsed, or granted official status by the Licensor or any other person attributed in the Licensed Material.

Other rights

Moral rights, such as the right of integrity, are not licensed under this Public Licence, nor are publicity, privacy, and/or other similar personality rights; however, to the extent possible, the Licensor waives and/or agrees not to assert any such rights held by the Licensor to the limited extent necessary to allow You to exercise the Licensed Rights, but not otherwise.
Patent and trademark rights are not licensed under this Public Licence.
To the extent possible, the Licensor waives any right to collect royalties from You for the exercise of the Licensed Rights, whether directly or through a collecting society under any voluntary or waivable statutory or compulsory licensing scheme. In all other cases the Licensor expressly reserves any right to collect such royalties, including when the Licensed Material is used other than for Non Commercial purposes.

Licence conditions

Your exercise of the Licensed Rights is expressly made subject to the following conditions. 

Subject to clause 3.4, if You Share the Licensed Material (including in modified form), You must retain the following information if it is supplied by the Licensor with the Licensed Material:

a) identification of the creator(s) of the Licensed Material and any others designated to receive attribution, in any reasonable manner requested by the Licensor;

b) a copyright notice;

c) a notice that refers to this Public License;

d) a notice that refers to the disclaimer of warranties; and

e) a hyperlink to the Licensed Material to the extent reasonably practicable;

If You Share the Licensed Material (including in modified form), You must indicate:

a) whether You modified the Licensed Material and retain an indication of any previous modifications; and

b) that the Licensed Material is licensed under this Public Licence, and include the text of, or hyperlink to, this Public Licence.

You may satisfy the conditions in clause 3.1 and 3.2 in any reasonable manner based on the medium, means, and context in which You Share the Licensed Material.  For example, it may be reasonable to satisfy the conditions by providing a hyperlink to a resource that includes the required information.
If requested by the Licensor, You must remove any of the information required by clause 3.1 to the extent reasonably practicable.
If You Share Adapted Material You produce, the licence You apply must not prevent recipients of the Adapted Material from complying with this Public Licence.

Sui Generis Database Rights

Where the Licensed Rights include Sui Generis Database Rights that apply to Your use of the Licensed Material:

a) for the avoidance of doubt, clause 2.1 grants You the right to extract, reuse, reproduce, and Share all or a substantial portion of the contents of the database for Non Commercial purposes only;

b) if You include all or a substantial portion of the database contents in a database in which You have Sui Generis Database Rights, then the database in which You have Sui Generis Database Rights (but not its individual content) is Adapted Material; and

c) You must comply with the conditions in clause 3 if You Share all or a substantial portion of the contents of the database.

For the avoidance of doubt, this clause 4 supplements and does not replace Your obligations under this Public Licence where the Licensed Rights include other Copyright and Similar Rights. 

Disclaimer of Warranties and Limitation of Liability

Unless otherwise separately undertaken by the Licensor, to the extent possible, the Licensor offers the Licensed Material as-is and as-available, and makes no representations or warranties of any kind concerning the Licensed Material, whether express, implied, statutory, or other. This includes, without limitation, warranties of title, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, absence of latent or other defects, accuracy, or the presence or absence of errors, whether or not known or discoverable. Where disclaimers of warranties are not allowed in full or in part, this disclaimer will only apply to You to the fullest extent permissible under law.
To the extent possible, in no event will the Licensor be liable to You on any legal theory (including, without limitation, negligence) or otherwise for any direct, special, indirect, incidental, consequential, punitive, exemplary, or other losses, costs, expenses, or damages arising out of this Public Licence or use of the Licensed Material, even if the Licensor has been advised of the possibility of such losses, costs, expenses, or damages. Where a limitation of liability is not allowed in full or in part, this limitation will only apply to You to the fullest extent permissible under law.
The disclaimer of warranties and limitation of liability provided above shall be interpreted in a manner that, to the extent possible, most closely approximates an absolute disclaimer and waiver of all liability.

Term and Termination

This Public Licence applies for the term of the Copyright and Similar Rights in the Licensed Materials. However, if You fail to comply with this Public Licence, then Your rights under this Public Licence terminate automatically.
Where Your right to use the Licensed Material has terminated under clause 6.1, it reinstates:

a) automatically as of the date the violation is cured, provided it is cured within 30 days of Your discovery of the violation; or

b) upon express reinstatement by the Licensor.

For the avoidance of doubt, this clause 6 does not affect any right the Licensor may have to seek remedies for Your violations of this Public Licence.
For the avoidance of doubt, the Licensor may also offer the Licensed Material under separate terms or conditions or stop distributing the Licensed Material at any time; however, doing so will not terminate this Public Licence.
Clauses 1, 5, 6 and 7 survive termination of this Public Licence.

Other Terms and Conditions

The Licensor shall not be bound by any additional or different terms or conditions communicated by You unless expressly agreed. 
For the avoidance of doubt, this Public Licence does not, and shall not be interpreted to, reduce, limit, restrict, or impose conditions on any use of the Licensed Material that could lawfully be made without permission under this Public Licence.
To the extent possible, if any provision of this Public Licence is deemed unenforceable, it shall be automatically reformed to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable. If the provision cannot be reformed, it shall be severed from this Public Licence without affecting the enforceability of the remaining terms and conditions.
Any arrangements, understandings, or agreements regarding the Licensed Material not stated herein are separate from and independent of the terms and conditions of this Public Licence.
No term or condition of this Public Licence will be waived and no failure to comply consented to unless expressly agreed to by the Licensor.
Nothing in this Public Licence constitutes or may be interpreted as a limitation upon, or waiver of, any privileges and immunities that apply to the Licensor or You, including from the legal processes of any jurisdiction or authority.
