We make sharing content easy, legal, and scalable.
What do we do?
All Rights Reserved
A set of exclusive rights granted to creators of
‘original works of authorship’
" Automatic ✓ All Rights Reserved ✓ Lasts a very long time ✓ Keeps getting extended
The problem:
Traditional © designed for old distribution models now
governs the Internet
In a digital world, most everyone is a creator of
copyrighted content.
Technically, it’s so easy to share!
Legally? Not so easy.
$750-$150,000 per copyright infringement
With Creative Commons, creators can grant copy and
reuse permissions in advance.
Free legal tools that express these permissions for you.
How do we do it?

Licenses
All CC licenses are combinations of 4 elements:

CC licenses are unique because they are expressed in three ways.

Deed
Machine Readable Metadata
(2) Public domain tools
CC0 (read ‘CC Zero’)
Public Domain Mark
What’s the difference?
CC Zero = I want to waive all of MY rights to a work.
PD Mark = For works already in the
public domain.

" CC is built on © law " CC gives creators more
options " CC minimizes transaction
costs
Some things to remember
CC does not affect Fair Use. CC may grant permissions beyond Fair Use.
Lastly…
