# Contributor License Agreement
|
|
|
|
## Background
|
|
|
|
The Nextcloud MCP Server project (the "Project") is offered to the public under
|
|
the GNU Affero General Public License version 3 (AGPL-3.0). To allow the
|
|
Project's maintainer, **Astrolabe Cloud** ("We" or "Us"), a company established
|
|
in The Netherlands, to sustain the Project's development — including through
|
|
dual licensing or other commercial offerings — and to keep the Project's
|
|
licensing flexible into the future, We ask each contributor to agree to the
|
|
terms below.
|
|
|
|
You retain ownership of the copyright in Your Contributions. This Agreement
|
|
grants Us a license that is broad enough to (a) continue distributing Your
|
|
Contributions as part of the Project under AGPL-3.0, and (b) license the
|
|
Project (including Your Contributions) under additional or alternative terms
|
|
in the future.
|
|
|
|
This Agreement is adapted from the
|
|
[Apache Software Foundation Individual Contributor License Agreement v2.0](https://www.apache.org/licenses/icla.pdf),
|
|
with modifications for use under Dutch law.
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
## 1. Definitions
|
|
|
|
**"You"** (or **"Your"**) means the copyright owner or legal entity authorized
|
|
by the copyright owner that is making this Agreement with Us. For legal
|
|
entities, the entity making a Contribution and all other entities that control,
|
|
are controlled by, or are under common control with that entity are considered
|
|
a single Contributor.
|
|
|
|
**"Contribution"** means any original work of authorship, including any
|
|
modifications or additions to an existing work, that is intentionally submitted
|
|
by You to Us for inclusion in, or documentation of, any of the products owned
|
|
or managed by Us (the "Work"). For the purposes of this definition, "submitted"
|
|
means any form of electronic, verbal, or written communication sent to Us or
|
|
our representatives, including but not limited to communication on electronic
|
|
mailing lists, source code control systems, and issue tracking systems that are
|
|
managed by, or on behalf of, Us for the purpose of discussing and improving the
|
|
Work, but excluding communication that is conspicuously marked or otherwise
|
|
designated in writing by You as "Not a Contribution."
|
|
|
|
## 2. Grant of Copyright License
|
|
|
|
Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, You hereby grant to Us
|
|
and to recipients of software distributed by Us 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 under
|
|
any license terms, including without limitation the AGPL-3.0 license, other
|
|
open-source licenses, or proprietary commercial licenses.**
|
|
|
|
## 3. Grant of Patent License
|
|
|
|
Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, You hereby grant to Us
|
|
and to recipients of software distributed by Us a perpetual, worldwide,
|
|
non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable (except as stated in this
|
|
section) patent license to make, have made, use, offer to sell, sell, import,
|
|
and otherwise transfer the Work, where such license applies only to those
|
|
patent claims licensable by You that are necessarily infringed by Your
|
|
Contribution(s) alone or by combination of Your Contribution(s) with the Work
|
|
to which such Contribution(s) was submitted. If any entity institutes patent
|
|
litigation against You or any other entity (including a cross-claim or
|
|
counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that Your Contribution, or the Work to
|
|
which You have contributed, constitutes direct or contributory patent
|
|
infringement, then any patent licenses granted to that entity under this
|
|
Agreement for that Contribution or Work shall terminate as of the date such
|
|
litigation is filed.
|
|
|
|
## 4. Moral Rights
|
|
|
|
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, including Article 25 of
|
|
the Dutch Copyright Act (*Auteurswet*), You waive — and agree not to assert
|
|
against Us, our licensees, or our successors — any moral rights
|
|
(*persoonlijkheidsrechten*) You may have in Your Contributions, including
|
|
without limitation the right to be identified as the author and the right to
|
|
object to non-derogatory modifications. Moral rights that cannot be waived
|
|
under applicable mandatory law remain unaffected by this Agreement, and We
|
|
will respect such rights in good faith — including by preserving authorship
|
|
attribution in the Project's source control history.
|
|
|
|
## 5. Representations
|
|
|
|
You represent that:
|
|
|
|
a. You are legally entitled to grant the above license. If your employer(s)
|
|
have rights to intellectual property that you create that includes your
|
|
Contributions, you represent that you have received permission to make
|
|
Contributions on behalf of that employer, that your employer has waived
|
|
such rights for your Contributions to Us, or that your employer has
|
|
executed a separate Corporate CLA with Us.
|
|
|
|
b. Each of Your Contributions is Your original creation (see Section 7 for
|
|
submissions on behalf of others).
|
|
|
|
c. Your Contribution submissions include complete details of any third-party
|
|
license or other restriction (including, but not limited to, related
|
|
patents and trademarks) of which You are personally aware and which are
|
|
associated with any part of Your Contributions.
|
|
|
|
## 6. Disclaimer
|
|
|
|
You are not expected to provide support for Your Contributions, except to the
|
|
extent You desire to provide support. You may provide support for free, for a
|
|
fee, or not at all. Unless required by applicable law or agreed to in writing,
|
|
You provide Your Contributions on an "AS IS" BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR
|
|
CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, either express or implied, including, without
|
|
limitation, any warranties or conditions of TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT,
|
|
MERCHANTABILITY, or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
|
|
|
|
## 7. Notification of Changes
|
|
|
|
You agree to notify Us of any facts or circumstances of which You become aware
|
|
that would make these representations inaccurate in any respect.
|
|
|
|
## 8. Submissions on Behalf of Others
|
|
|
|
Should You wish to submit work that is not Your original creation, You may
|
|
submit it to Us separately from any Contribution, identifying the complete
|
|
details of its source and of any license or other restriction (including, but
|
|
not limited to, related patents, trademarks, and license agreements) of which
|
|
You are personally aware, and conspicuously marking the work as "Submitted on
|
|
behalf of a third-party: [named here]".
|
|
|
|
## 9. Personal Data
|
|
|
|
When You sign this Agreement, We process a limited set of personal data —
|
|
typically Your name, email address, and GitHub account identifier — for the
|
|
purpose of recording Your acceptance of this Agreement and identifying Your
|
|
Contributions. The legal basis for this processing under the EU General Data
|
|
Protection Regulation (Regulation 2016/679, "GDPR") is the performance of this
|
|
Agreement (Article 6(1)(b) GDPR) and our legitimate interest in maintaining a
|
|
verifiable record of contributor consents (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR).
|
|
|
|
Signature records are retained for as long as the Project distributes
|
|
Contributions and for any applicable limitation periods thereafter. Signatures
|
|
collected through cla-assistant.io are processed by SAP SE on Our behalf in
|
|
accordance with their privacy notice. You may exercise Your rights as a data
|
|
subject (access, rectification, erasure where applicable, restriction,
|
|
objection, portability) by contacting Us at info@astrolabecloud.com.
|
|
|
|
## 10. Governing Law and Jurisdiction
|
|
|
|
This Agreement and any non-contractual obligations arising out of or in
|
|
connection with it are governed by the laws of The Netherlands, excluding its
|
|
conflict-of-law rules and the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the
|
|
International Sale of Goods (CISG). Any dispute arising out of or in connection
|
|
with this Agreement shall be submitted to the exclusive jurisdiction of the
|
|
competent court in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, without prejudice to any
|
|
mandatory consumer-protection rules that may apply.
|
