MyCHIPs License Agreement
Version 3, Jul 12, 2020
(For a non-binding, common language summary, please see the file: FREE-USE)
The Got Choices Foundation, Owner of the MyCHIPs package contained herein,
grants a dual License to the programs, code, files, algorithms, API's,
documentation and other content in this package, hereinafter "the Software,"
such that The Software may be used according to one of the two Options desribed
below.
For purposes of this License, the term "CHIP Trader" shall mean any individual
or organization who uses the Software to establish and/or conduct a credit
relationship, a "Tally," with another individual or organization. The term
"Service Provider" shall mean any individual or organization who uses the
Software to host an account for one or more CHIP Traders. The term "Revenue"
shall mean any accrual, pledge, or receipt of value, whether measured in CHIPs
or some other unit, which is received in connection with the use of the
Software.
Free Option:
You may use The Software according to the GNU Affero General Public License
Version 3, a copy of which is included in this distribution (AGPL-3.0), subject
to the following two conditions, which constitute binding amendments to that
license:
Condition 1: CHIP Traders incorporate into all their Tallies and hence, their
transactions, the terms and conditions referenced in contracts/Free.yaml,
and further agree that such terms and conditions supercede any additional
terms and conditions they may agree to as part of those Tallies and
transactions. This obligation pertains to the version of Free.yaml
published with the version of the Software being used at such time as a
given Tally is agreed to; and
Condition 2: Service Providers
A) take commercially reasonable measures to inform the CHIP Traders of
their obligations under this License, most notably Condition 1 above;
and
B) proactively collect, and remit monthly to the Owner, any payments due,
as explained below, from those who do not abide by Condition 1.
C) deal honestly with, and representing the best interests of, the CHIP
Traders they host services for and exchange credits with, whether
directly or indirectly.
Paid Option:
Service Providers and CHIP Traders using the Software who do not abide by the
Conditions above automatically become subject to the Paid Option and agree to
remit to the Owner:
A) 1% of all gross Revenues associated directly or indirectly with the use
of The Software, remitted voluntarily and monthly to, and without explicit
invoice or demand by, the Owner; and
B) An additional 9% of all such revenues, plus all associated collection
costs, including attorneys fees, in such case that the 1% royalty payments
noted above are not made timely or otherwise require collection efforts by
the Owner or its agents; furthermore
C) Should a Service Provider have intentionally cheated or defrauded a CHIP
Trader, then the Service Provider, in addition to the fees due under
subsections (A) and (B) above, shall be liable for the greater of $5000
USD or 300% of any resulting loss by the CHIP Trader, plus collection
costs and attorney's fees. The Owner hereby assigns this claim to any
CHIP Trader so harmed by a Service Provider pursuant to this subsection
(C) for purposes of suing and collecting on the Owner's claim provided
the CHIP Trader shall, as a condition of said assignment, remit 10% of the
gross recover amounts to the Owner.
All proceeds collected from the Paid Option, or resulting from damage claims,
shall be used by the Owner for the advancement of the stated purpose of the
Owner as defined in its governing documents.
