 We provide free copyright licenses² you can use to tell people exactly which parts of your copyright you are happy to give to the public. It's easy, only takes a minute and it's totally free.

 

Just come to our website and answer a few quick questions like "Will you allow commercial uses of your work?" and "Will you allow your work to be modified?". Based on your answers, we will give you a license¹ that clearly communicates what people can and can't do with your creativity. You don't give up your copyright, you refine it so it works better for you.
