+# Backspace Contributor License Agreement
+
+Thank you for your interest in contributing to Backspace ("the Project"), owned
+and maintained by **Jannis Braun** ("the Maintainer", "I", "me", or "my").
+
+This Contributor License Agreement ("Agreement") clarifies the intellectual
+property rights granted with Contributions from any person or entity ("You")
+to the Maintainer. It protects You, the Maintainer, and the Project's users; it
+does **not** change Your right to use Your own Contributions for any other
+purpose.
+
+By submitting a Contribution to the Project (for example, by opening a pull
+request) and by signing this Agreement through the Project's CLA bot, You accept
+and agree to the following terms for all past and future Contributions You
+submit.
+
+## 1. Definitions
+
+**"Contribution"** means any original work of authorship, including any
+modification of or addition to an existing work, that You intentionally submit
+to the Project in any form — including source code, object code, documentation,
+configuration, designs, or assets — through any means, including pull requests,
+patches, issues with attached code, or electronic communication, but excluding
+any communication You conspicuously mark in writing as "Not a Contribution".
+
+**"Submit"** means any act by which a Contribution is transferred to the Project,
+including by version control systems, issue trackers, mailing lists, or
+electronic messages, but excluding communication marked "Not a Contribution".
+
+## 2. Copyright License and Right to Relicense
+
+You retain all right, title, and interest in and to Your Contributions. You do
+**not** assign Your copyright to the Maintainer.
+
+Instead, You grant to the Maintainer, and to recipients of software distributed
+by the Maintainer, a perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free,
+irrevocable license to reproduce, prepare derivative works of, publicly display,
+publicly perform, sublicense, and distribute Your Contributions and such
+derivative works.
+
+You further grant the Maintainer the right to **license and relicense Your
+Contributions, and the Project as a whole, under any license terms the
+Maintainer chooses** — including the Elastic License 2.0, other open-source or
+source-available licenses, and proprietary or commercial licenses — now and in
+the future, without further notice to or consent from You. This right exists so
+the Maintainer can sustain, evolve, and commercially license the Project while
+keeping it source-available to the community.
+
+## 3. Patent License
+
+You grant to the Maintainer and to recipients of software distributed by the
+Maintainer a perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, irrevocable
+(except as stated in this section) patent license to make, have made, use, offer
+to sell, sell, import, and otherwise transfer Your Contributions, where such
+license applies only to those patent claims licensable by You that are
+necessarily infringed by Your Contribution alone or by combination of Your
+Contribution with the Project to which it was Submitted.
+
+If any entity institutes patent litigation against You or any other entity
+(including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that Your
+Contribution, or the Project to which You contributed, constitutes direct or
+contributory patent infringement, then any patent licenses granted to that
+entity under this Agreement for that Contribution or Project terminate as of the
+date such litigation is filed.
+
+## 4. Your Representations
+
+You represent that:
+
+1. Each of Your Contributions is Your original creation, or You have sufficient
+   rights to grant the licenses described in this Agreement.
+2. You are legally entitled to grant the above licenses. If Your employer has
+   rights to intellectual property You create, You represent that You have
+   received permission to make the Contributions on behalf of that employer, or
+   that Your employer has waived such rights for Your Contributions.
+3. Each of Your Contributions does not, to the best of Your knowledge, violate
+   any third party's copyrights, trademarks, patents, or other intellectual
+   property rights.
+4. If any Contribution includes or depends on third-party work, You will clearly
+   identify it, along with any associated license or other restriction of which
+   You are personally aware, in the Contribution itself or in the accompanying
+   pull request.
+
+## 5. No Obligation
+
+You acknowledge that the Maintainer is under no obligation to use, merge, or
+incorporate any Contribution. The decision to include any Contribution in the
+Project rests solely with the Maintainer.
+
+## 6. Disclaimer
+
+Except for the representations in Section 4, Your Contributions are provided "as
+is", without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including without
+limitation any warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose,
+title, or non-infringement.
+
+## 7. Entity Contributions
+
+If You are signing on behalf of a legal entity, You represent that You have the
+authority to bind that entity and its affiliates to this Agreement, and the
+terms "You" and "Your" refer to that entity and its affiliates.
