What Is Creative Commons

Creative Commons is a licensing framework that allows creators to share their work while maintaining control over its usage and distribution. It offers a flexible alternative to traditional copyright, providing a set of licenses that enable creators to grant permissions to others in a standardized and legally sound manner.

With Creative Commons, creators can choose the level of freedom they want to grant to others in terms of using, modifying, or sharing their work. This framework enables individuals, organizations, and artists to share their creations with the world while still maintaining certain rights and protecting their intellectual property.
