Creative Commons (CC) licences are one of the public copyright licences that enable the free distribution of an otherwise copyrighted creation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
A CC licence is used when an author or copyright owner wants to give other people the right to share, use and build upon a work the author has created.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
CC licences are built on copyright and are designed to give more options to creators
who want to share. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Why do we need CC licences?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The CC licences were created in response to an outdated global copyright legal system and to help address the tension between creators’ ability to share digital works globally and copyright regulation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What is the CC licence scope?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
CC licences are appropriate for creators to provide people with permissions governed by copyright from the onset.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
