      1 libjpeg-turbo Licenses
      2 ======================
      3 
      4 libjpeg-turbo is covered by three compatible BSD-style open source licenses:
      5 
      6 - The IJG (Independent JPEG Group) License, which is listed in
      7   [README.ijg](README.ijg)
      8 
      9   This license applies to the libjpeg API library and associated programs
     10   (any code inherited from libjpeg, and any modifications to that code.)
     11 
     12 - The Modified (3-clause) BSD License, which is listed below
     13 
     14   This license covers the TurboJPEG API library and associated programs.
     15 
     16 - The zlib License, which is listed below
     17 
     18   This license is a subset of the other two, and it covers the libjpeg-turbo
     19   SIMD extensions.

     22 Complying with the libjpeg-turbo Licenses
     23 =========================================
     24 
     25 This section provides a roll-up of the libjpeg-turbo licensing terms, to the
     26 best of our understanding.
     27 
     28 1.  If you are distributing a modified version of the libjpeg-turbo source,
     29     then:
     30 
     31     1.  You cannot alter or remove any existing copyright or license notices
     32         from the source.
     33 
     34         **Origin**
     35         - Clause 1 of the IJG License
     36         - Clause 1 of the Modified BSD License
     37         - Clauses 1 and 3 of the zlib License
     38 
     39     2.  You must add your own copyright notice to the header of each source
     40         file you modified, so others can tell that you modified that file (if
     41         there is not an existing copyright header in that file, then you can
     42         simply add a notice stating that you modified the file.)
     43 
     44         **Origin**
     45         - Clause 1 of the IJG License
     46         - Clause 2 of the zlib License
     47 
     48     3.  You must include the IJG README file, and you must not alter any of the
     49         copyright or license text in that file.
     50 
     51         **Origin**
     52         - Clause 1 of the IJG License
     53 
     54 2.  If you are distributing only libjpeg-turbo binaries without the source, or
     55     if you are distributing an application that statically links with
     56     libjpeg-turbo, then:
     57 
     58     1.  Your product documentation must include a message stating:
     59 
     60         This software is based in part on the work of the Independent JPEG
     61         Group.
     62 
     63         **Origin**
     64         - Clause 2 of the IJG license
     65 
     66     2.  If your binary distribution includes or uses the TurboJPEG API, then
     67         your product documentation must include the text of the Modified BSD
     68         License.
     69 
     70         **Origin**
     71         - Clause 2 of the Modified BSD License
     72 
     73 3.  You cannot use the name of the IJG or The libjpeg-turbo Project or the
     74     contributors thereof in advertising, publicity, etc.
     75 
     76     **Origin**
     77     - IJG License
     78     - Clause 3 of the Modified BSD License
     79 
     80 4.  The IJG and The libjpeg-turbo Project do not warrant libjpeg-turbo to be
     81     free of defects, nor do we accept any liability for undesirable
     82     consequences resulting from your use of the software.
     83 
     84     **Origin**
     85     - IJG License
     86     - Modified BSD License
     87     - zlib License
     88 
     89
