Contributor Licence Agreement (CLA)

We ask every contributor to sign a lightweight Contributor Licence Agreement before we can merge a pull request. The CLA does not transfer copyright — you keep full ownership of your work. It simply grants the TrustGraph project a perpetual, royalty-free licence to distribute your contribution under the project's Apache 2.0 licence, and confirms that you have the right to make the contribution. This protects both the project and its users by ensuring every contribution has a clear legal footing.

When you open your first pull request, the CLA Assistant bot will post a comment asking you to review and sign the agreement — it only takes a moment and you only need to do it once.
