<p class="text-normal">All CC-licensed content functions the same for your users once it is published on your site – they can use the content freely under the terms of the relevant Creative Commons license. </p>
<p class="text-normal padding-top-normal">But for you as the platform provider, there are a few things to consider that are specific to each category of content.</p>
</div>
<div class="column is-offset-1 is-6">
<h4 class="b-header padding-bottom-smaller">Content owned by users</h4>
<p class="text-normal"><span class="has-text-weight-bold">Ensure your user understands the basics of how the licenses work - especially since they’re irrevocable. </span> Decide which of the six license types and two public domain tools you want to enable users to apply. Signal which license applies to which content.</p>
<p class="text-normal">In nearly all cases, this content remains owned by the user, and the platform gets the rights to host it via the CC license that is applied or via a separate license in the terms of service. (Click here for more about Terms of Service)</p>
<h4 class="b-header padding-top-small padding-bottom-smaller">Content owned by the platform</h4>
<p class="text-normal ">You’re the copyright holder for this type of content. If you choose to apply a CC license to any of it, just be sure to mark which license applies (type and version) and signal any content that is not covered by the license, such as company logos or other trademarks.</p>
<h4 class="b-header padding-top-small padding-bottom-smaller">Third-party content contributed to your platform</h4>
<p class="text-normal"><span class="has-text-weight-bold">Be clear about what permissions the user needs from the author.</span> The decision to allow users to upload third party content, and which Creative Commons licenses are permitted, comes down to how the content could be used by both the platform itself and other users. In some cases the platform will specify the particular types of CC-licensed content that are permitted, and in other the onus is on the uploader to make the determination (see example below).</p>
</div>

<div class="panel column is-9 has-background-white">
<p class="text-normal padding-top-small padding-bottom-small">When users are uploading content that is already CC-licensed (whether their own content or others), the platform can get all of the copyright permission it needs to use the work from the applicable CC license. However, platforms often include a direct copyright license grant from the uploader to the platform in their terms of service. In cases where people are uploading CC-licensed content owned by others, the direct license to the platform is in conflict with the CC license. See the Third Party CC-Licensed Content for more information about this conflict and how to address it.</p>

<div class="panel column is-9 has-background-white">
<p class="text-normal padding-top-small padding-bottom-small">Platforms often ask their users to formally promise that the content they upload to the platform is not infringing of others’ copyright or other rights. CC licenses do not include reps and warranties of this type, and CC-licensed content comes “as-is” or without guarantees. However, platforms may still ask their users to represent that they have the necessary rights to all content they upload, including CC-licensed content.</p>

<div class="panel column is-9 has-background-white">
<p class="text-normal padding-top-small padding-bottom-small">In 2013, Creative Commons published the latest version of the license suite – version 4.0. We have no plans to version the licenses again for many years, but it is realistic to assume that eventually the licenses will be updated to reflect legal and policy changes. Only the rights holder can apply a new version of the licenses to a work, so platforms may want to consider getting express permission from their users to move to the most updated license of the particular CC license applied to a work when those future versions are released. This can be done in the terms of service or at the point of upload where the user applies the CC license to their work.</p>
</div>
<h4 class="padding-top-normal padding-bottom-smaller">Most common conflicts in terms of service</h4>
<div class="column is-9 has-background-white accordion pt-line-detail-forest pt-row-space-between pt-chevron">
<p class="text-big padding-left-small"> Additional Restrictions</p>
<img alt="Icon of arrow pointing right" src="./src/img/icon-chevron-right.png" class=" chevron-down"/>
</div>
<div class="panel column is-9 has-background-white">
<p class="text-normal padding-top-small padding-bottom-small">Many T.O.S. include restrictions on how content on the platform may be used. Imposing additional terms that contradict the CC license confuses users and undermines the point of license standardization. CC strongly discourages this practice.Your platform may have extra restrictions that are not intended for CC-licensed content. For example, a platform may include terms that limit use of the platform to noncommercial purposes. In these cases, we recommend adding language that clarifies that these and other restrictions do not apply to CC-licensed content. For example:</p>
<img alt="symbol representing quotes" src="./src/img/icon-quotes.png">
<p class="text-bigger is-italic padding-top-small padding-bottom-small">For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Agreement is designed to prevent you from reusing content available under a Creative Commons license according to the terms and conditions of the applicable license.</p>
<p class="text-normal padding-top-small padding-bottom-small">At the end of the day, we want to ensure that people who come across CC-licensed work can trust that they can use that work under the terms of the CC license. When extra restrictions are imposed on CC-licensed content – whether by changing the license terms themselves or by imposing new contractual restrictions via terms of service – Creative Commons requires that the CREATIVE COMMONS name and brand be removed to avoid confusing people about the source of the more restrictive terms imposed by the platform. Anything that imposes additional conditions or narrows the permissions granted by a standard CC license is prohibited. For example: prohibiting download of CC-licensed works, or adding extra attribution requirements. For more details, read the full CC License Modification Policy here.</p>

<p class="text-big padding-left-small">Third Party CC-Licensed Content</p>
<img alt="Icon of arrow pointing right" src="./src/img/icon-chevron-right.png" class=" chevron-down"/>
</div>
<div class="panel column is-9 has-background-white">
<p class="text-normal padding-top-small padding-bottom-small">As noted above, platforms often require their users to grant a separate, direct copyright license to the platform for all content they upload.This creates a conflict when a user uploads CC-licensed content owned by others (third parties) because the user cannot grant rights to content they don’t own; only the original CC licensor can grant these rights to the platform. Therefore, it is important that the direct license written into the TOS excludes CC-licensed content owned by someone other than the uploader.</p>
<img alt="symbol representing quotes" src="./src/img/icon-quotes.png">
<p class="text-bigger is-italic padding-top-small padding-bottom-small">Example language: “If you provide any content to [the platform], you grant [the platform] a nonexclusive, royalty-free right to use that content, unless the content is not owned by you, in which case you represent and warrant that such content is in the public domain or available under a Creative Commons license or other terms permitting upload to the [the platform].”</p>
</div>
<h4 class="padding-top-normal padding-bottom-small">Example</h4>
<p class="column text-normal margin-top-small is-paddingless is-5">Terms of use are customized to how the particular platform runs its service, which means T.O.S. cannot be completely standardized. </p>

<h4 class="b-header padding-bottom-normal">License Metadata gives a broader reach to content</h4>
<p class="text-normal">CC license metadata should be incorporated into the technical backend of the three components of the CC user experience: the license selection process, display of the licensed content, and discovery of licensed content. Here we’ll go over the metadata that is required for uploading and display. Under Search Implementation you can find the remaining information.</p>
</div>
<div class="column is-offset-1 is-6">
<h4 class="b-header padding-bottom-smaller">What is this license metadata</h4>
<p class="text-normal"><span class="has-text-weight-bold">CC license metadata consists of a small snippet of html code with RDFa that expresses CC license and attribution information on the web. </span>RDFa is a way of expressing RDF triples inside XHTML pages using span tags. You can learn more about RDFa and how it works here. The following is an overview of all the information you need to implement it into your platform.</p>
<h4 class="b-header padding-top-small padding-bottom-smaller">Metadata for chooser</h4>
<p class="text-normal">If the chooser is a graphical user interface for work stored on the platform then it doesn’t need to generate metadata itself. The platform can just store the chosen license in the database. This can be done with two pieces of information: the terms (for example All Rights Reserved, CC0, CC-BY-SA, represented as a unique id for each one) and the version (e.g. 1.0, 2.5, 4.0). Or if the TOS allows the platform to automatically update licensing versions it can be done with just the terms id number.</p>
<h4 class="b-header padding-top-small padding-bottom-smaller">Metadata for display</h4>
<p class="text-normal">At a minimum, the main component you want machine-readable is the license and license icons. Next, you can find code snippets and their explanation: </p>
