Using Creative Commons Public Licenses |
|
|
14 |
|
|
|
15 |
Creative Commons public licenses provide a standard set of terms and |
|
|
16 |
conditions that creators and other rights holders may use to share |
|
|
17 |
original works of authorship and other material subject to copyright and |
|
|
18 |
certain other rights specified in the public license below. The |
|
|
19 |
following considerations are for informational purposes only, are not |
|
|
20 |
exhaustive, and do not form part of our licenses. |
|
|
21 |
|
|
|
22 |
- Considerations for licensors: Our public licenses are intended for |
|
|
23 |
use by those authorized to give the public permission to use |
|
|
24 |
material in ways otherwise restricted by copyright and certain other |
|
|
25 |
rights. Our licenses are irrevocable. Licensors should read and |
|
|
26 |
understand the terms and conditions of the license they choose |
|
|
27 |
before applying it. Licensors should also secure all rights |
|
|
28 |
necessary before applying our licenses so that the public can reuse |
|
|
29 |
the material as expected. Licensors should clearly mark any material |
|
|
30 |
not subject to the license. This includes other CC-licensed |
|
|
31 |
material, or material used under an exception or limitation to |
|
|
32 |
copyright. More considerations for licensors : |

- Considerations for the public: By using one of our public licenses, |
|
|
36 |
a licensor grants the public permission to use the licensed material |
|
|
37 |
under specified terms and conditions. If the licensor's permission |
|
|
38 |
is not necessary for any reason–for example, because of any |
|
|
39 |
applicable exception or limitation to copyright–then that use is not |
|
|
40 |
regulated by the license. Our licenses grant only permissions under |
|
|
41 |
copyright and certain other rights that a licensor has authority to |
|
|
42 |
grant. Use of the licensed material may still be restricted for |
|
|
43 |
other reasons, including because others have copyright or other |
|
|
44 |
rights in the material. A licensor may make special requests, such |
|
|
45 |
as asking that all changes be marked or described. Although not |
|
|
46 |
required by our licenses, you are encouraged to respect those |
|
|
47 |
requests where reasonable. More considerations for the public : |

|

172 |
granted official status by, the Licensor or others |

|
|
188 |
under any voluntary or waivable statutory or compulsory |
|
|

licensing scheme. In all other cases the Licensor expressly |
|

conditions on any use of the Licensed Material that could |
|
|

lawfully be made without permission under this Public License. |
|
|

- b. To the extent possible, if any provision of this Public |
|
|

License is deemed unenforceable, it shall be automatically |
|
