We appreciate your interest in the FIDO Alliance.

We need assurance that your feedback and discussions are consistent with those terms. You are not required to provide any comments or input (“Comments”) on any FIDO Alliance Specifications or Requirements, but any Comments you do provide may be incorporated into these FIDO Alliance Specifications or Requirements. By checking accept below and submitting your Comments, you (on behalf of yourself if you are an individual and your company if you are providing Comments on behalf of the company) grant to FIDO Alliance and the authors of the FIDO Alliance Specifications or Requirements (“Authors”) a perpetual (for the duration of the applicable copyright), worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, copyright license, without any obligation for accounting, to reproduce, prepare derivative works of, publicly display, publicly perform, sublicense, and distribute any Comments you provide. Likewise, if incorporation of your Comments into any of the FIDO Alliance Proposed Standard Specifications would cause an implementation of any of such FIDO Alliance Proposed Standard Specifications to infringe patent claims that you control, you agree to grant a royalty-free license to such patent claims to any party to make, use, sell, offer for sale, import or distribute or dispose of any implementation of the FIDO Alliance Proposed Standard Specification, 1) only to the extent it implements the FIDO Alliance Proposed Standard Specification and 2) so long as all required portions of the FIDO Alliance Proposed Standard Specification are implemented, where such FIDO Alliance Proposed Standard Specification describes the functionality causing the infringement in detail and does not merely reference the functionality causing the infringement. Such royalty-free license 1) shall be available to all, worldwide, 2) may be conditioned on a grant of a reciprocal RF license, 3) may not be conditioned on payment of royalties, fees or other consideration, 4) may be suspended with respect to any licensee when you are sued by the licensee for infringement of claims essential to implement the Proposed Standard Specification, 5) may not impose any further conditions or restrictions on the use of any technology, intellectual property rights, or other restrictions on behavior of the licensee, but may include reasonable, customary terms relating to operation or maintenance of the license relationship such as the following: choice of law and dispute resolution and 6) shall not be considered accepted by an implementer who manifests an intent not to accept the terms of the Royalty-Free license as offered.
