Open Content Licensing

by Musicman — last modified 2008-02-11 02:05

EngageMedia offers a range of open content licensing options so you can choose to what extent you wish to make your video available for others to share and re-use.

The default license for content on EngageMedia is a Creative Commons license allowing anyone to copy, distribute and transmit your work but only for non-commercial purposes. Derivative works (allowing others to remix or re-edit your work, or using portions of it in their own work) is not allowed by default.

Attribution-Noncommercial-No Derivative Works 3.0

However you have much more choice over the license you wish to attach to your work. You can choose between two different open content licensing schemes - Creative Commons, GNU Free Document License - or attach a custom license of your own. In addition there are a few different choices you can make when choosing a Creative Commons license to tailor it to your needs.
