Effective date 2016 July 01
Because Vivid is open to contributions without restriction on time, place, and contributor, this agreement clarifies the terms under which all contributions are made to avoid potential misunderstandings or disputes.
This Contributor Agreement is between Vivid Inc. ("Vivid") and the contributing individual or entity ("You", and variations). Each time You offer materials (a "Contribution" or multiple "Contributions") to Vivid, including text, text translated into other languages ("localizations"), source code, and artwork, You agree to be bound by this Contributor Agreement. Vivid agrees to accept said Contributions, according to the terms of this agreement and also under the terms of use or license associated with the product or service.
Terms of Contribution: You assert that You have complete ownership of the Contribution immediately prior to the time of contribution. You assert that, to the best of Your knowledge, the materials do not infringe copyright and trademarks and are otherwise unladen. By contributing the materials to Vivid, You understand and agree:
- To revoke any claim to ownership and copyright of the materials by Yourself,
- To assign all ownership and copyright to Vivid at the time of contribution,
- That Vivid shall have the irrevocable and perpetual right to claim ownership and copyright of any Contribution, to make and distribute copies of any Contribution, to create and distribute collective works and derivative works of any Contribution,
- That Vivid reserves the unrestricted right to reject any Contribution, and
- That Vivid is not obligated to identify the origin of any Contribution unless there exists an agreement explicitly between You and Vivid that obligates Vivid to do so.
