Is there English text if license available somewhere?

I am not a lawyer, I looked only at Google translate but it
seems to be compatible.

Again: I am not a lawyer, I looked only at Google translate

And that is why creating your own license is stupid: you 
should use existing one.

"CC BY-NC-SA 4.0", "CC BY-NC-ND 4.0", "CC BY-ND 4.0", "CC BY-NC 4.0"
are completely unsuitable - importing into OSM would create a derivative work
(or later edits would do this), what is forbidden by ND (no derivative works),
NC (no commercial use) is fundamentally incompatible with ODBL
allowing also commercial use

Data under a CC-BY 4.0 licence can become compatible with OSM,
after some boilerplate waiver has been signed

See https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Creative_Commons
pointing to https://blog.openstreetmap.org/2017/03/17/use-of-cc-by-data/

(I also added part of earlier message onto that Wiki page
as I am basically 100% sure that it is correct)
