The coreboot project uses the Developer Certificate of Origin as its policy of accepting contributions. As such, a submitter bears the burden that they have all necessary rights to submit their contribution to the project under the project’s licenses as appropriate. Violations of third party rights will lead to the code’s removal or replacement as suitable to bring the project back into compliance.

This applies no matter under which circumstances a contribution has been created: legal frameworks, work contracts, Generative Artificial Intelligence (“AI”) tooling, or other aspects that may affect the ownership and copyright status of a contribution are outside the project’s control.

See the Sign-off procedure for more information.
