However, if you submit a pull +request with changes or additions to the main Essential Loader +repository, subject to the terms of this license, you transfer the +copyright and ownership of those changes to Essential. This +introduction is for summary purposes only and is not part of the +agreement. + + * * * + +ModCore Inc., doing business as Essential (“Essential”), owns, +publishes, and make available for download and use its Essential +Loader™ modification to the Minecraft® game (collectively with all of +its features and content and all updates thereto and versions thereof, +the “Mod”), including its underlying source code (collectively with +all updates thereto and versions thereof, the “Mod Code”), subject to +the terms of this Use and Contribution License Agreement (this +“Agreement”). Each individual, corporation, limited liability company, +partnership, association, or other entity or party (each, a “Person”) +that downloads and/or uses the Mod and/or the Mod Code (each, a +“User”) shall be deemed to have accepted, executed, and be bound by +the terms of this Agreement. + +Each individual User must be at least eighteen (18) years old to +download and/or use the Mod and the Mod Code or, if between the ages +of thirteen (13) and eighteen (18), have the permission of their +parent or legal guardian and hereby represents and warrants they have +obtained such permission. + +Now, therefore, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and +sufficiency of which are hereby accepted: + +1. GNU General Public License v3.0. + +The GNU General Public License v3.0, dated 29 June 2007, available at +https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-3.0.en.html (as amended from time to +time, “GPL-3”), is hereby incorporated by reference into, and made +part of, this Agreement and governs each User’s download and use of +the Mod and the Mod Code; provided, however, to the extent of any +conflict between any permissions, rights, obligations, terms, or +conditions in this Agreement and GPL-3, this Agreement shall govern +and control, including where expressly stated under Section 3 of this +Agreement. All other rights in and to the Mod and the Mod Code are +hereby expressly reserved. For purposes of GPL-3, the Mod Code, in the +form published from time to time in its code repository presently +located at https://github.com/EssentialGG/EssentialLoader (the “Mod +Repository”), is the “Program” as defined therein. + +2. Creation of Modified Versions. + +Each User is permitted under GPL-3 to create and use “modified +versions” of the Program (i.e., the Mod Code) as defined therein +(collectively, “Modified Versions”) and subject to the terms and +conditions thereof. Each User who creates a Modified Version may be +referred to herein as a “Contributor.” + +3. Proposal and Acceptance of Modified Versions. + +Essential invites, but does not require, Contributors to submit their +Modified Versions to Essential for potential inclusion in the Mod Code +(each, a “Proposed Contribution”), subject to the following terms and +conditions: + +(a) Submission Process. Contributors may submit their Proposed +Contributions by opening a “pull request” on the Mod Repository. For +more information on how to create a pull request, visit +https://docs.github.com/en/pull-requests/collaborating-with-pull-requests/proposing-changes-to-your-work-with-pull-requests/creating-a-pull-request. +For the avoidance of doubt, Contributors are not obligated to submit +any of their Modified Versions to Essential as Proposed Contributions, +and may “fork” the Mod Code or their Modified Versions, thereby +creating a derivative work subject to the terms of GPL-3. + +(b) Review and Acceptance. When a Contributor pushes a Proposed +Contribution to the Repository, Essential will review the Proposed +Contribution and may conduct whatever reviews and testing of the code +as it deems necessary in its sole discretion, after which time +Essential may (i) accept the Proposed Contribution (thereafter, an +“Accepted Contribution”); (ii) decline the Proposed Contribution; or +(iii) request that the Contributor make changes or refinements to the +code for the Proposed Contribution and resubmit the Proposed +Contribution for Essential’s review and acceptance, which the +Contributor may accept or decline its sole discretion. + +(c) Merging Accepted Contributions Into Mod Code. Essential will have +full discretion whether to merge any Accepted Contribution into the +Mod Code and the Mod Repository. Essential is not obligated to +include, use, or otherwise exploit any Accepted Contribution (or any +portion thereof) in any manner, and each Contributor acknowledges and +agrees that any decision by Essential respecting the use or inclusion +of their Accepted Contribution shall be in Essential’s sole +discretion. + +4. Ownership. + +Each Contributor shall retain all right, title, and interest in and to +their respective Modified Versions and Proposed Contributions subject +to the terms of GPL-3. In the event Essential accepts a Proposed +Contribution thereby becoming an Accepted Contribution in accordance +with the terms of Section 2 of this Agreement, to the fullest extent +allowable and for the full term of protection otherwise accorded to +its Contributor under applicable law, the Contributor shall be deemed +to have hereby (i) irrevocably assigned, transferred, granted, +conveyed, and relinquished to Essential all right, title, and +interest, including, without limitation, all copyrights, neighboring +rights, trademarks, patents, and any and all other ownership and +exploitation rights, now or hereafter recognized in any and all +territories and jurisdictions (collectively, “IP Rights”), in and to +the Accepted Contribution in perpetuity throughout the universe, +without any compensation therefor, to the fullest extent allowable and +for the full term of protection otherwise accorded to the Contributor +under applicable law (including any and all renewals, extensions, and +revivals thereof), and (ii) unconditionally and irrevocably waived any +“moral rights,” “droit moral,” or similar “moral rights of authors” +throughout the universe in and in connection with the Accepted +Contribution. Any and all of an Accepted Contribution that is +incorporated by Essential into the Mod Code shall become fully part +of, and inseparable from, the Mod Code and, to the extent +copyrightable, the copyright claimed exclusively by Essential and its +assignees in and to the Mod Code, whether or not registered with the +U.S. Copyright Office or any other copyright registrar; a Contributor +shall not register, or apply or attempt to register, their Accepted +Contribution(s) with the U.S. Copyright Office or any other copyright +registrar or otherwise claim status as a “joint copyright owner” with +respect thereto. This Section 4 shall control to the extent that there +are any conflicting terms and conditions contained in GPL-3 applicable +to ownership of the Accepted Contribution and its Contributor’s use +thereof, including, without limitation, Paragraph 2 of Section 2 +(Basic Permissions), Section 5 (Conveying Modified Source Versions), +and Section 6 (Conveying Non-Source Forms) thereof, and all such +activities shall constitute a breach of this Section 4. + +5. Representations and Warranties. + +By submitting a Proposed Contribution, its Contributor represents and +warrants to Essential that (i) the rights in and to the Proposed +Contribution that are granted by the Contributor hereunder will not +conflict with or violate any commitment, agreement, or understanding +such Contributor has with any third-party Person; (ii) the Proposed +Contribution, when delivered to Essential, will be free and clear of +any liens and claims by any third party; and (iii) the Proposed +Contribution and Essential’s use thereof will not violate or infringe +upon any IP Rights, right of privacy, or any statutory or common law +rights of any Person, be libelous or otherwise subject Essential to +liability, or be contrary to law. + +6. Indemnification. + +In accordance with Section 7(f) of GPL-3, each Contributor shall +indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Essential and its present and +future parent, subsidiary, and affiliate companies and each of their +respective present and future officers, directors, shareholders, +managers, members, employees, agents, representatives, successors, and +permitted assigns (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) from and +against any and all liabilities, losses, damages, costs, expenses +(including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and court costs), +settlements, judgments, and recoveries resulting from any claim, suit, +litigation, action, cause of action, or demand, whether based in whole +or in part in contract, tort, negligence, statute, or otherwise (each, +a “Claim”), brought or asserted by a third-party Person to the extent +arising out of or attributable to any Accepted Contribution or +material breach, or allegation which if true would constitute a +material breach, of the Contributor’s obligations, representations, or +warranties hereunder. Essential shall notify the Contributor in +writing of any Claim subject to indemnification hereunder (provided +any delay in such notice shall not relieve the Contributor of its +indemnification obligations except to the extent such delay prejudices +the defense of such Claim) and give the Contributor the opportunity to +defend or settle such Claim solely with Essential’s prior written +consent and using legal counsel acceptable to Essential, and cooperate +with the Contributor in such defense and settlement, all at the +Contributor’s sole cost and expense. + +7. Use of Essential’s Trademarks. + +All Contributors hereby acknowledge Essential’s exclusive trademark +rights in and to Essential, ESSENTIAL MOD, and Essential Loader +(together, the “Marks”) for use in connection with, among other +things, downloadable and non-downloadable software, applications, and +video and computer games and software as a service (SaaS) and +platforms as a service (PaaS), based on Essential’s ongoing use of the +Marks in commerce, and in accordance with Section 7(e) of GPL-3, agree +not to use, sell, license, commercialize, or otherwise exploit any +Modified Version under the Marks or any other trademark of Essential +or any variation thereof or apply to register any of the foregoing +with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office or any other trademark +registrar. + +8. Relationship of Contributor to Essential. + +Nothing in this Agreement or any course of dealing shall create any +employment, service, agency, partnership, or joint venture +relationship between Essential, on the one hand, and any Contributor +or other User, on the other hand. Essential shall not compensate, +monetarily or otherwise, any Contributor in exchange for them +creating, submitting, or modifying a Proposed Contribution or for +Essential accepting and/or incorporating into the Mod Code any +Accepted Contribution. + +9. Notices to Users. + +All agreements, notices, disclosures, and other communications that +Essential provides to a User electronically shall satisfy any legal +requirement that such communications be in writing. + +10. Entire Agreement; Severability. + +This Agreement, together with the GPL-3 to the extent applicable +hereunder, constitutes the entire agreement and understanding between +Essential, on the one hand, and each Contributor and each other User, +on the other hand, with respect to the subject matter hereof, and +supersedes all prior and contemporaneous discussions, documents, +agreements, and prior course of dealing between the parties with +respect thereto. If any term, provision, or condition, or any part +thereof, of this Agreement shall for any reason be found or held +invalid or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, such +invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect the remainder of such +term, provision, or condition nor any other term, provision, or +condition, and this Agreement shall survive and be construed as if +such invalid or unenforceable term, provision, or condition had not +been contained therein. + +11. Governing Law; Dispute Resolution. + +This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with +the laws of the State of New York, without regard to any conflict or +choice of laws rules to the contrary. Any dispute arising hereunder +shall be adjudicated exclusively in the state or federal courts +located in the County of New York in the State of New York, and each +User waives any jurisdictional, venue, or inconvenient forum +objections to such courts. + +12. No Waivers. + +No failure to exercise, or delay in exercising, any right, remedy, +power, or privilege arising from this Agreement shall operate or be +construed as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial +exercise of any right, remedy, power, or privilege hereunder preclude +any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other +right, remedy, power, or privilege. + +13. Changes to this Agreement and the License Terms. + +Essential may change or amend this Agreement at any time at its sole +discretion. If Essential makes a material change or amendment to this +Agreement, it will notify each User by posting such changes or +amendments on Essential’s website and other website(s) where Essential +makes the Mod and/or Mod Code available for download (e.g., a GitHub +repository), which changes or amendments will be effective +automatically upon the posting thereof. If a user deems any of this +Agreement or any future changes are unacceptable, that user should not +use or continue to use the Mod or the Mod Code and delete all +downloaded copies of the Mod Code in their possession or stored on any +of their devices. A User’s continued use of the Mod and/or Mod Code +following the posting of any notice of any change to this Agreement +shall constitute their acceptance and agreement to such change. + +[End of Agreement] \ No newline at end of file
