OPEN LICENCE 2.0/LICENCE OUVERTE 2.0


"Reuse" of the "Information" covered by this licence

The "Grantor" grants the "Reuser" the free, non-exclusive right to "Reuse" the
"Information" subject of this licence, for commercial or non-commercial
purposes, worldwide and for an unlimited period, in accordance with the
conditions stated below.

The "Reuser" is free to reuse the "Information":

- To reproduce it, copy it.
- To adapt, modify, retrieve and transform it in order to create "derived
  information", products and services.
- To share, disseminate, redistribute, publish and transmit it.
- To exploit it for commercial purposes, e.g., by combining it with other
  information, or by including it in his/her own product or application.

Subject to:

- An acknowledgement of the authorship of the "Information": its source (at
  least, the name of the "Grantor") and the date of the most recent update of
  the reused "Information".

Specifically, the "Reuser" may satisfy this condition by pointing, via a
hypertext link, to the source of the "Information" and so supplying an actual
acknowledgement of its authorship.

For example:

"Ministry of xxx—Original data downloaded from
'http://www.data.gouv.fr/fr/datasets/xxx/', updated on 14 February 2017".

This acknowledgement of authorship does not confer any official status on the
"Reuse" of the "Information", and must not suggest any sort of recognition or
endorsement on the part of the "Grantor", or any other public entity, of the
"Reuser" or of their "Reuse".


Personal data

The "Information" made available may contain "Personal data" that may be
subject to "Reuse". If this is the case, the "Grantor" informs the "Reuser"
about its existence. The "Information" may be freely reused, within the rights
granted by this licence, subject to compliance with the legal framework
relating to personal data protection.


Intellectual property rights

It is guaranteed to The "Reuser" that potential "Intellectual property rights"
held by third parties or by the "Grantor" on "Information" do not interfere
with the rights granted by this licence.

When the "Grantor" holds transferable "Intellectual property rights" on the
"Information", he/she assigns these to the "Reuser" on a non-exclusive basis,
free of charge, worldwide, for the entire duration of the "Intellectual
property rights", and the "Reuser" is free to use the "Information" for any
purpose that complies with the rights and conditions defined in this licence.


Liability

The "Information" is made available as it is produced or received by the
"Grantor", without any other express or tacit guarantee than those set out in
this licence. The "Grantor" does not guarantee the absence of errors or
inaccuracies in the "Information", nor a continuous supply of the
"Information". He/she cannot be held responsible for any loss, prejudice or
damage of any kind caused to third parties as a result of the "Reuse".

The "Reuser" is solely responsible for the "Reuse" of the "Information". This
"Reuse" must not mislead third parties as to the contents of the "Information",
its source or its date of update.


Applicable legislation

This licence is governed by French law.

About this licence

This licence is intended to be used by administrations for the reuse of their
public information. It can also be used by any individual wishing to supply
"Information" under the conditions defined in this licence.

France has a comprehensive legal framework aiming at the spontaneous
dissemination by the administrations of their public information in order to
ensure the widest possible reuse of this information.

The right to "Reuse" the administrations' "Information" is governed by the
