What is the Creative Commons?

Home  Dictionary  Creative Commons
 

Non-profit organization created in 2001 that offers a system of copyright licences (known as Creative Commons licences or CC licences) allowing creators the possibility to grant legal licences over their creative works in a simple and standardized manner. Thus it is the author who establishes the limits on the rights over his/her work, which may be music, film, literature, a website, information, etc. beyond merely ‘all rights reserved’. There are six kinds of Creative Commons licences: Attribution (CC BY), Attribution-Share Alike (CC BY-SA), Attribution-No Derivatives (CC BY-ND), Attribution-Non Commercial (CC BY-NC), Attribution-Non Commercial-Share Alike (CC BY-NC-SA), and Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives (CC BY-NC-ND).
