<p>
The original author of SQLite has dedicated the code to the public domain.
All of the deliverable code in SQLite has been dedicated to the
<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_Domain">public domain</a>
by the authors.
All code authors, and representatives of the companies they work for,
have signed affidavits dedicating their contributions to
the public domain and originals of
those signed affidavits are stored in a firesafe at the main offices
of <a href="http://www.hwaci.com">Hwaci</a>.
Anyone is free to copy, modify, publish, use, compile, sell, or distribute
the original SQLite code, either in source code form or as a compiled binary,
for any purpose, commercial or non-commercial, and by any means.
</p>
<p>
The previous paragraph applies to the deliverable code in SQLite -
those parts of the SQLite library that you actually bundle and
ship with a larger application. Portions of the documentation and
some code used as part of the build process might fall under
other licenses. The details here are unclear. We do not worry
about the licensing of the documentation and build code so much
because none of these things are part of the core deliverable
SQLite library.
</p>
<p>
All of the deliverable code in SQLite has been written from scratch.
No code has been taken from other projects or from the open
internet. Every line of code can be traced back to its original
author, and all of those authors have public domain dedications
on file. So the SQLite code base is clean and is
uncontaminated with licensed code from other projects.

<h2>Obtaining A License To Use SQLite</h2>

If you are using SQLite in a jurisdiction that does not recognize
the public domain, or if your legal department is uncomfortable with
the concept of the public domain, you can purchase a license to use
and distribute SQLite from <a href="http://www.hwaci.com/">Hwaci</a>,
the company that employees the architect and principal developers
of SQLite. For additional information on how to purchase a license
to use SQLite, please contact:
