Creative Commons
To achieve this the organisation have created a number of standard, free legal permissions (called Creative Commons licenses) that describe which rights the creator wants to reserve and which they are willing to waive for the benefit of other creators.
To help avoid copyright pitfalls an American non-profit organization called Creative Commons (CC) was set up in 2001 by Harvard scholar Lawrence Lessig to expand “the range of creative works available for others to build upon legally and to share”.
Creative Commons
Organisations like Google Images, flickr, YouTube, vimeo, SoundCloud, and Wikipedia use Creative Commons licenses, so when you upload content to them, you are asked which licence you wish to attach to that content. A useful website to search for content that has Creative Commons licenses is: https://search.creativecommons.org
Creative Commons licenses are not designed to replace copyright, but they can replace individual negotiations for specific rights between copyright owner and licensees, which are necessary under an "all rights reserved" copyright management. By 2015 over one billion works were licensed under the various Creative Commons licenses.
Creative Commons
The organization has released several copyright-licenses known as Creative Commons licenses free of charge to the public. These licenses allow creators to communicate which rights they reserve, and which rights they waive for the benefit of recipients or other creators. An easy-to-understand one-page explanation of rights, with associated visual symbols, explains the specifics of each Creative Commons license.
Creative Commons (CC) is an American non-profit organization devoted to expanding the range of creative works available for others to build upon legally and to share.
