The Client must purchase a separate license if the Client wishes to change the integration of the Work and the Qualifying Larger Project, or to integrate the Work with another project.
You must give any other recipients of the Software a copy of the Professional Client license and a copy of the Apache License Version 2 (which applies to some portions of the Work). You must ensure that those terms are as accessible and prominent as other license files which may accompany the Larger Project.
Some portions of the Work may depend upon third-party libraries, and these libraries may in turn require that their license be conveyed to all recipients. For details, consult the COPYRIGHT.txt file associated with each component of the Work which you intend to redistrube.
The restrictions contained within this license shall not prevent you from exercising rights granted by a different license. For example, you may choose to use Apache 2-licensed portions of the work under the terms of the Apache 2 license, and modify and redistribute those portions as permitted by the Apache 2 license agreement.
It is suggested that changes to the Work and Derivative Works be submitted to the Licensor for code review PRIOR to redistribution. Without code review, the Licensor cannot support modified versions of the Software. In addition, some changes may be acceptable for inclusion in the official version of the Work, reducing your maintenance costs.
It is suggested that a description of the changes made to the Work be included when the Derivative Work is redistributed.
An “Unethical Derivative Work” is software, in Object or Source form, which meets all three of the following conditions.
Sale, public distribution, marketing, and publication of Unethical Derivative Works is prohibited. Development and use of Unethical Derivative Works within Your organization is not prohibited by this clause, but may be subject to other restrictions contained in this license agreement due to its inclusion and/or modification of the Work.
Examples of prohibited actions:
To clarify, if you are the “first to market”, you do not have to worry about retroactively being in violation of this clause.
To comply with this clause, prior to publishing your product, simply compare the purpose of your product to the purpose of each of the products offered on http://imageresizing.net/ and http://imazen.io. If the purpose or marketing of the products is similar, then you should contact support@imageresizing.net for written clarification and permission (provided free of charge, if applicable).
For the purposes of this section, “Infringed Claims” shall mean all patent claims licensable by the Contributor that are necessarily infringed by their Contribution(s) alone or by combination of their Contribution(s) with the Work to which such Contribution(s) was submitted.
Subject to the terms and conditions of this License, each Contributor hereby grants to You a worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, patent license during the Subscription Term to make, have made, use, offer to sell, sell, import, and otherwise transfer the Work, where such license applies only to their Infringed Claims.
If You institute patent litigation against any entity (including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that the Work or a Contribution incorporated within the Work constitutes direct or contributory patent infringement, then any patent licenses granted to You under this License for that Work shall terminate as of the date such litigation is filed.
Unless You explicitly state otherwise, by submitting any Contribution to the Licensor for inclusion in the Work, you grant the Licensor a perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable copyright license to reproduce, prepare Derivative Works of, publicly display, publicly perform, sub-license, and distribute the Work and such Derivative Works in Source or Object form.
In addition, unless You explicitly state otherwise, any Contribution submitted for inclusion in the Work by You to the Licensor shall be implicitly released by You under the terms and conditions of the Imazen Contributor Agreement AND (if applicable) the Imazen Software Grant and Corporate Contributor License Agreement, without any additional terms or conditions.
Notwithstanding the above, nothing herein shall supersede or modify the terms of any separate license agreement you may have executed with the Licensor regarding such Contributions.
