What is Creative Commons License?
ATTRIBUTION: CC BY = This license lets you distribute, remix, tweak, and build upon the original work, even commercially, as long as you credit the original creation. This is the most accommodating of licenses offered.
ATTRIBUTION-SHAREALIKE: CC BY-SA = This license lets you remix, tweak, and build upon the original work, even for commercial purposes, as long as you credit the original work and license your new creations under the identical terms. This license is often compared to “copyleft” free and open source software licenses, so any derivatives will also allow commercial use. THis is the license used by Wikipedia.

ATTRIBUTION-NONCOMMERCIAL: CC BY-NC = This license lets you distribute, remix, tweak, and build upon the original work, non-commercially. Your new works must be non-commercial and acknowledge the original work, but you don’t have to license your derivative works on the same terms.
ATTRIBUTION-NONCOMMERCIAL-SHAREALIKE: CC BY-NC-SA = This license lets you remix, tweak, and build upon the original work, non-commercially, as long as you credit the original work and license your new creations under the identical terms.
ATTRIBUTION-NONCOMMERCIAL-NODERIVS: CC BY-NC-ND = This license is the most restrictive of the six main licenses , only allowing you to download the original work and share it with others as long as you credit the original work. You can’t change the original woke in any way or use it commercially.
