No, it's a copyright notice.  It's precisely NOT any kind of licence.
You see `all rights reserved' ?

Copyright law makes it a civil offence to do certain things to a
copyrighted work without permission (called a licence) from the
copyright holder.  Children can in most jurisdictions be held
responsible for civil offences they commit.
