See the 12 GNU General Public License for more details. 13 14 You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License 15 along with this program; if not, write to the Free Software 16 Foundation, Inc., 59 Temple Place, Suite 330, Boston, MA 02111-1307 USA 17 18 19 Contact Form 7 WordPress Plugin bundles the following third-party resources: 20 21 The official icon designed by Cheung Vong 22 https://contactform7.com/2020/04/08/new-official-logo/ 23 24 25 =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= 26 27 GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE 28 Version 2, June 1991 29 30 Copyright (C) 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc., 31 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA 32 Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies 33 of this license document, but changing it is not allowed. 34 35 Preamble 36 37 The licenses for most software are designed to take away your 38 freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public 39 License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free 40 software--to make sure the software is free for all its users. This 41 General Public License applies to most of the Free Software 42 Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to 43 using it. (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by 44 the GNU Lesser General Public License instead.) You can apply it to 45 your programs, too. 46 47 When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not 48 price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you 49 have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for 50 this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it 51 if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it 52 in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things. 53 54 To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid 55 anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights. 56 These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you 57 distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it. 58 59 For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether 60 gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that 61 you have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the 62 source code. And you must show them these terms so they know their 63 rights. 64 65 We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and 66 (2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy, 67 distribute and/or modify the software. 68 69 Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain 70 that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free 71 software. If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we 72 want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so 73 that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original 74 authors' reputations. 75 76 Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software 77 patents. We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free 78 program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the 79 program proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any 80 patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all. 81 82 The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and 83 modification follow. 84 85 GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE 86 TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION 87 88 0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains 89 a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed 90 under the terms of this General Public License. The "Program", below, 91 refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program" 92 means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law: 93 that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it, 94 either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another 95 language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in 96 the term "modification".) Each licensee is addressed as "you". 97 98 Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not 99 covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of 100 running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program 101 is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the 102 Program (independent of having been made by running the Program). 103 Whether that is true depends on what the Program does. 104 105 1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's 106 source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you 107 conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate 108 copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the 109 notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty; 110 and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License 111 along with the Program. 112 113 You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and 114 you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee. 115 116 2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion 117 of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and 118 distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 119 above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions: 120 121 a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices 122 stating that you changed the files and the date of any change. 123 124 b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in 125 whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any 126 part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third 127 parties under the terms of this License. 128 129 c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively 130 when run, you must cause it, when started running for such 131 interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an 132 announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a 133 notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide 134 a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under 135 these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this 136 License. (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but 137 does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on 138 the Program is not required to print an announcement.) 139 140 These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If 141 identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program, 142 and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in 143 themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those 144 sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you 145 distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based 146 on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of 147 this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the 148 entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it. 149 150 Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest 151 your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to 152 exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or 153 collective works based on the Program. 154 155 In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program 156 with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of 157 a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under 158 the scope of this License. 159 160 3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, 161 under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of 162 Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following: 163 164 a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable 165 source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections 166 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or, 167 168 b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three 169 years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your 170 cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete 171 machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be 172 distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium 173 customarily used for software interchange; or, 174 175 c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer 176 to distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is 177 allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you 178 received the program in object code or executable form with such 179 an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.) 180 181 The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for 182 making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source 183 code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any 184 associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to 185 control compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a 186 special exception, the source code distributed need not include 187 anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary 188 form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the 189 operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component 190 itself accompanies the executable. 191 192 If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering 193 access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent 194 access to copy the source code from the same place counts as 195 distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not 196 compelled to copy the source along with the object code. 197 198 4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program 199 except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt 200 otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is 201 void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License. 202 However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under 203 this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such 204 parties remain in full compliance. 205 206 5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not 207 signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or 208 distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions are 209 prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by 210 modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the 211 Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and 212 all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying 213 the Program or works based on it. 214 215 6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the 216 Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the 217 original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to 218 these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further 219 restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein. 220 You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to 221 this License. 222 223 7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent 224 infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues), 225 conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or 226 otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not 227 excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot 228 distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this 229 License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you 230 may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent 231 license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by 232 all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then 233 the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to 234 refrain entirely from distribution of the Program. 235 236 If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under 237 any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to 238 apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other 239 circumstances. 240 241 It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any 242 patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any 243 such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the 244 integrity of the free software distribution system, which is 245 implemented by public license practices. Many people have made 246 generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed 247 through that system in reliance on consistent application of that 248 system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing 249 to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot 250 impose that choice. 251 252 This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to 253 be a consequence of the rest of this License. 254 255 8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in 256 certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the 257 original copyright holder who places the Program under this License 258 may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding 259 those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among 260 countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates 261 the limitation as if written in the body of this License. 262 263 9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions 264 of the General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will 265 be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to 266 address new problems or concerns. 267 268 Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program 269 specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any 270 later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions 271 either of that version or of any later version published by the Free 272 Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of 273 this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software 274 Foundation. 275 276 10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free 277 programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author 278 to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free 279 Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes 280 make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals 281 of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and 282 of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally. 283 284 NO WARRANTY 285 286 11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY 287 FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN 288 OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES 289 PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED 290 OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF 291 MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS 292 TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE 293 PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, 294 REPAIR OR CORRECTION. 295 296 12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING 297 WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR 298 REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, 299 INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING 300 OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED 301 TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY 302 YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER 303 PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE 304 POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. 305 306 END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS 307 308 How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs 309 310 If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest 311 possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it 312 free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms. 313 314 To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest 315 to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively 316 convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least 317 the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found. 318 319 <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.> 320 Copyright (C) <year> <name of author> 321 322 This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify 323 it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by 324 the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or 325 (at your option) any later version. 326 327 This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, 328 but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of 329 MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the 330 GNU General Public License for more details. 331 332 You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License along 333 with this program; if not, write to the Free Software Foundation, Inc., 334 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA. 335 336 Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail. 337 338 If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this 339 when it starts in an interactive mode: 340 341 Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) year name of author 342 Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'. 343 This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it 344 under certain conditions; type `show c' for details. 345 346 The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate 347 parts of the General Public License. Of course, the commands you use may 348 be called something other than `show w' and `show c'; they could even be 349 mouse-clicks or menu items--whatever suits your program. 350 351 You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your 352 school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if 353 necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names: 354 355 Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the program 356 `Gnomovision' (which makes passes at compilers) written by James Hacker. 357 358 <signature of Ty Coon>, 1 April 1989 359 Ty Coon, President of Vice 360 361 This General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into 362 proprietary programs. If your program is a subroutine library, you may 363 consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with the 364 library. If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Lesser General 365 Public License instead of this License.
