It is a non-profit organization that makes available to an author (s), licenses that allow some rights to be given to the public on a work under certain conditions; specifically on the commercial use of the work and the generation of derivative works.
It does not imply the loss of copyrights. The author can cede “some rights"; of his private work, looking for it to be shared, reused, used or remixed, freely and legally.
The CC licenses allow to change the terms of protection of the works under four (4) conditions.
The structure of a license contains: definitions, rights of honest uses, legal exceptions, concessions, restrictions, representations, guarantees and limitations, limitation of liability, and terms and others.
Structural levels of a CC license: they are designed under three (3) levels:
- Commons Deed: it translates as a “common agreement” under conditions.
- Legal Code: contains the legal text of the license.
- Digital Code: code identifying works under CC licenses along with their conditions of use.
