I think this is better. Pascal - I have a feeling this is meant to be as part of your contributions to Mozilla. So you can't rob a bank and donate the money to Mozilla, or host an event that would be considered trespassing. The wording can be clearer, but maybe it is the formatting in email, the line before the bullet is "The following is an agreement between you and Mozilla that describes your volunteer work with the Project."
I am not sure if there is a better word than locale, since there are different levels of government that can have laws, city, state, prefecture, province, township... I got the meaning but then I am a current Mozilla contributor and know what locale means. We might want to test this with non-Mozillians to see if the meaning still comes across.
