Copyright For Digital Content




What is
Creative
Commons?

A nonprofit based in San Francisco with close

CC does not offer legal advice per se.

CC offers free legal and technical tools that
allow creators to publish and share their works
on more flexible terms than standard copyright.

CC is an important part
of a global sharing
infrastructure.
Digital
               technologies have
              revolutionized how
               creative works are
               made, distributed,
                   and used.
