# Contributors

A contributor is someone who contributes either on behalf of a company or individually on their behalf.

* If contributing on behalf of their company, the contributor will sign a [Corporate Contributor License (CCLA)](https://docs.linuxfoundation.org/lfx/easycla/v2-current/contributors/corporate-contributor).
* If contributing on their behalf, the Contributor will ​sign an [Individual Contributor License Agreement (ICLA)](https://docs.linuxfoundation.org/lfx/easycla/v2-current/contributors/individual-contributor).

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Important:** You should not submit a contribution under an ICLA if that contribution is done on behalf of your company. Instead, you should contribute under a Corporate CLA signed by your company. If you are uncertain whether you should be contributing under a CCLA or an ICLA, you should consult your employer's legal department to discuss.
