What does "Fair use" mean?

All jurisdictions allow some limited uses of copyrighted material without permission. CC licenses do not
affect the rights of users under those copyright limitations and exceptions, such as fair use and fair dealing
where applicable.

What are "Moral Rights"?

In addition to the right of licensors to request removal of their name from the work when used in a
derivative or collective they don't like, copyright laws in most jurisdictions around the world (with the
notable exception of the US except in very limited circumstances) grant creators "moral rights" which may
provide some redress if a derivative work represents a "derogatory treatment" of the licensor's work.

What are "Publicity Rights"?

Publicity rights allow individuals to control how their voice, image or likeness is used for commercial
purposes in public. If a CC-licensed work includes the voice or image of anyone other than the licensor, a
user of the work may need to get permission from those individuals before using the work for commercial
purposes.
