# 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 GmbH](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.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
