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

||||||

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

|
||||||
|

||||||

|
||||||

||||||
|
exercise the Licensed Rights in the Licensed Material to:

||||||
|

||||||
|

|

||||||
|
terms and conditions.

||||||
|
|
||||||
|
3. Term. The term of this Public License is specified in Section 6(a).

|
||||||
|
and/or agrees not to assert any right or authority to forbid You
|
||||||
|
from making technical modifications necessary to exercise the
|
||||||
|
Licensed Rights, including technical modifications necessary to
|
||||||
|
circumvent Effective Technological Measures. For purposes of
|
||||||
|
this Public License, simply making modifications authorized by
|
||||||
|
this Section 2(a)(4) never produces Adapted Material.

||||||
|
|
||||||
|

||||||
|
terms and conditions of this Public License.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
B. Additional offer from the Licensor - Adapted Material. Every
|
||||||
|
recipient of Adapted Material from You automatically
|
||||||
|
receives an offer from the Licensor to exercise the Licensed
|
||||||

Rights in the Adapted Material under the conditions of the
|
||||||
|
Adapter's License You apply.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
C. No downstream restrictions. You may not offer or impose any
|
||||||
|
additional or different terms or conditions on, or apply any

|
Effective Technological Measures to, the Licensed Material

||||||
|
if doing so restricts exercise of the Licensed Rights by any
|
||||||
|
recipient of the Licensed Material.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|
may be construed as permission to assert or imply that You are,

||||||
|
or that Your use of the Licensed Material is, connected with, or
|
||||||
|
sponsored, endorsed, or granted official status by, the Licensor
|
||||||

|
||||||
|
other similar personality rights; however, to the extent
|
||||||
|
possible, the Licensor waives and/or agrees not to assert any
|
||||||
|
such rights held by the Licensor to the limited extent necessary
|
||||||
|
to allow You to exercise the Licensed Rights, but not otherwise.

|
||||||
|
royalties from You for the exercise of the Licensed Rights,
|
||||||
|
whether directly or through a collecting society under any
|
||||||
|
voluntary or waivable statutory or compulsory licensing
|
||||||
|
scheme. In all other cases the Licensor expressly reserves any
|
||||||
|
right to collect such royalties.

|
||||||
|
consequential, punitive, exemplary, or other losses, costs,

|
||||||
|
limitation of liability is not allowed in full or in part, this
|
||||||
|
limitation may not apply to You.

||||||
|
|
||||||
|
c. The disclaimer of warranties and limitation of liability provided
|
||||||
|

|

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

||||||
|
deemed unenforceable, it shall be automatically reformed to the
|
||||||
|
minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable. If the provision
|
||||||
|
cannot be reformed, it shall be severed from this Public License
|
||||||
|
without affecting the enforceability of the remaining terms and
|
||||||
|
conditions.
|

||||||
|
