About Creative Commons

Creative Commons is a nonprofit organization that promotes the creative reuse of intellectual and artistic works – whether owned or in the public domain. Creative Commons licenses provide a flexible range of protections and freedoms that build upon the “all rights reserved” concept of traditional copyright to offer a voluntary “some rights reserved” approach.

Currently, at least 20 country jurisdictions belong to Asia and the Pacific Region, namely: Armenia, Australia, Azerbaijan, Bangladesh, Mainland China, Georgia, Hongkong, India, Israel, Japan, Jordan, Malaysia, New Zealand, Philippines, Singapore, South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand, Turkey and Vietnam.
