1.0 Preamble

This agreement is designed to authorise CodeCogs to distribute, on your behalf, any material your submit to CodeCogs. Furthermore it permits CodeCogs to take action to protect your investment, while also guaranteeing developers continued access and support for the components they license.

At all times, CodeCogs must be able to guarantee the availability of licences, so that customers can expand their operations and reliance on any one component and CodeCogs as a whole. For this reason, it is imperative that CodeCogs has rights to issue licences and that the licensee only enters into a single agreement with CodeCogs (not each individual contributor). However, at any time, prior to your submitted code being sub-licensed, you may cancel this agreement and withdraw your code.

CodeCogs respects copyright law and needs to be able to pursue individuals who make unauthorised use of the software. Therefore by entering into this agreement, you authorise CodeCogs to pursue offending parties on your behalf.

In summary this agreement does the following:

• Authorises CodeCogs to sub-license your code to others.
;
• Authorises CodeCogs to collect royalities from 3rd parties on your behalf.
• Guarantees you a percentage of any revenue that CodeCogs receives from the licensing of code you submit.
• Guarantees you a share of any settlement that is obtained as a result of legal action against unauthorised use of the code you submit.
• If CodeCogs is unable to sub-license your code during the first 12 months, then you can request cancellation of this agreement.

By submitting code to CodeCogs you are agreeing to these terms and conditions set forth.

If you have any questions regarding this agreement, or if you wish to request any information from CodeCogs, please contact CodeCogs through the website (www.codecogs.com) or at the address: Zyba Ltd, Broadwood, Holford, Bridgwater, Somerset, TA1 1DU, ENGLAND.
