# spaCy contributor agreement
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This spaCy Contributor Agreement (**"SCA"**) is based on the
|
||
|
|
[Oracle Contributor Agreement](http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/oca-405177.pdf).
|
||
|
|
The SCA applies to any contribution that you make to any product or project
|
||
|
|
managed by us (the **"project"**), and sets out the intellectual property rights
|
||
|
|
you grant to us in the contributed materials. The term **"us"** shall mean
|
||
|
|
[ExplosionAI UG (haftungsbeschränkt)](https://explosion.ai/legal). The term
|
||
|
|
**"you"** shall mean the person or entity identified below.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you agree to be bound by these terms, fill in the information requested
|
||
|
|
below and include the filled-in version with your first pull request, under the
|
||
|
|
folder [`.github/contributors/`](/.github/contributors/). The name of the file
|
||
|
|
should be your GitHub username, with the extension `.md`. For example, the user
|
||
|
|
example_user would create the file `.github/contributors/example_user.md`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Read this agreement carefully before signing. These terms and conditions
|
||
|
|
constitute a binding legal agreement.
